3 superior bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, New 10x5 metre pool. Detached, surrounded by gardens and open countryside, historical towns and Chateaux nearby, vineyards and great markets.

The house has been sympathetically restored keeping all the features you would expect from a 300 year old stone house. Stone sinks, oak beams, large fireplaces, hidden terraces and sunny vistas.

The accommodation comprises 3 generous bedrooms, one on the ground floor, which have been lovingly decorated and are a mix of old French charm and boutique hotel. All rooms have super king-size beds with Egyptian cotton linen, vintage and antique French furniture and flat screen TVs. The spacious en-suites are tiled in stone with roomy walk in powerful showers and modern "boutique touches".

A pretty, shady covered terrace provides a relaxing spot to escape the mid-day sun or to enjoy breakfast. From the terrace you enter the heart of the house, le Grande Salon. A generous, terracotta tiled and oak beamed room and as with many old French farmhouses, the centre of the house. A well equipped kitchen with large kitchen dining table.
