Your day will be very pleasant: breakfast on the big terrace (75 m2), cycling one of the many routes in the area or visiting historical cities in the afternoon, and enjoying the quietness of long evenings when you return.

Our house is located on a domain of 3 hectare, with a huge garden, meadow with sheep’s, horses, chicken and our little forest.

From our garden you can walk through our meadow, into our forest, where it is very quiet. We have put some wooden banks, where you can sit and relax, watching the birds and frogs in the 3 ponds of the little forest.
Our garden is totally enclosed. In the garden is also a piste de jeu de boules (petanque).
