This is a beautiful 250 year old farmhouse converted to the highest standards as a holiday home, set in a small hamlet of Chez Bouquet with just 10 houses. The house is completely secluded in 2 acres of gardens. The whole house sleeps 16, although it is possible to rent just the ground floor[out of season] which has three bedrooms and three bathrooms - although we would never rent the two floors out to separate families at the same time. The first floor has a further three bedrooms. The main kitchen is fully equipped including a dishwasher and there is use of a washing machine and tumble dryer. The lounge has a wood burner, plenty of sofas,Sky TV/DVD and stereo. There are 3 cots available if required.
Outside there is a private 10x5m swimming pool with underwater lighting and complies with all French safety standards - there is even CCTV of the swimming pool in the kitchen so that parents can watch the children whilst cooking! The whole property is situated in a large garden with woodland, making an ideal playground for the kids. There is also a table tennis table, boules set and four bikes available for our guests. There is wi-fi throughout the house and garden
