This property is very small, you can not take much luggage. The wardrobe does not close properly. There is a lack of kitchen cupboard space, no room at all to put any food that you bought from supermarket.
Superbe location, au calme, très bien aménagée et équipée, décorée avec gout.
Tout est prévu également au niveau linge de maison et de toilette.
Piscine au top et très appréciée pendant ces grosses chaleurs.
Un havre de paix.

We hebben hier twee heerlijke weken gehad. Het huis zelf is klein, maar goed uitgerust. Het terrein is enorm groot met een fantastisch zwembad, dat we privé konden gebruiken. Het huis ligt op een berg, dus je moet wel een kronkelweg afleggen om er te komen en boodschappen te kunnen doen, voor ons geen bezwaar. De communicatie met de eigenaar verliep bijzonder goed en vriendelijk. Kleine problemen worden onmiddellijk verholpen.
Wir hatten eine sehr ruhige, gute Zeit an diesem etwas abgelegenen Ort. Das Haus bietet alles was man braucht. Die Beschreibung für die Nutzung war deutlich. Bei der Ankunft erwarteten uns Erfrischungen im Kühlschrank das fanden wir toll. Allerdings war es in der Nacht schon sehr heiß im Haus. Der Pool war das Highlight und eine gute Möglichkeit um uns zu erfrischen.

About the host
Hosted by Jenny Murray
This house was my permanent home until I moved back to the UK in 2013. Many happy memories of living here with great friends in and around the village. I try and visit several times a year, as work allows. I currently have a small biotech company just outside Bedford and this is taking up a lot of my time. I moved to France in 1989 with my husband and absolutely love the country and this area.
Why they chose this property
We both loved farmhouses. We had lived in a farmhouse in Sussex prior to moving to France. My husband had been educated in France as a child and it was an ambition to go back to live. This house had the right 'feel' as soon as we saw it - we had made the decision to purchase before even going inside.
What makes this property unique
The quiet of the area is amazing. Close enought to the bustle of the beaches if you want it but the silence and the birdsong is lovely. The light, particularly in the evening, and the chestnut trees combine to make it a very beautiful spot.
