Whether you are entertaining guests on warm summer evenings or cosying up by the fireplace in cooler months, this exceptional home provides a unique sanctuary in one of France’s most captivating regions.

- The ceilings and traditional wood beams are low in the upstairs bedrooms.
- It's lovely to have the village bistro just a short distance away - it's less than a 5-minute drive or you can walk along the country road (no pavement or lighting). During the day, the most adventurous of guests can even follow a track through the forest to reach the village.
- There are outbuildings backing onto the courtyard and facing the opposite direction which are not in use. Please rest assured guests will have exclusive use of the property, amenities and pool etc.
