French farmhouse holidays don’t come any better than those in our delightful gîte, Le Marronnier.
This is a large farmhouse with 4 bedrooms, a large lounge, a fully equipped kitchen, and 2 Shower/WC rooms. These are spread over two floors, and together with a conservatory, provide plenty of space for up to 12 guests. Each room has been tastefully decorated and furnished, with an emphasis on comfort and convenience. Above all, we aim to provide farmhouse holiday accommodation, that feels just like home.
Entry to the property is from a courtyard, with sufficient off-road parking for up to 8 cars. Leading out from the rear, via the bright and airy conservatory are our established gardens along with a beautiful, heated, swimming pool and large sun terrace. the gardens are extensive and spread over 2.5 acres, with exotic trees, shrubs, and flower borders. The gardens are completely fenced, for added child safety, and there are no busy roads nearby. Open space is something we have in abundance.
