About this property
Detached Holiday Cottage, Close To Market Town Of Hesdin .
This lovely Detached Holiday Cottage is set within pretty surroundings, and close to amenities. Be it a relaxing holiday or taking in the many places of interest there is something for everyone.
This area is known as the Seven Valleys .Only 90mins from Calais,
30 mins to Le Touquet and the best beaches along the Cote de Opale.
Montreuil sur Mer made famous by Victor Hugo LES MISERABLES is only 20mins away and Abbey de Valories and gardens is 10mins.
Just 10 mins away, is the to the market town of Hesdin, with Supermarkets, shops, restaurants, sports centre with indoor and outdoor pools and garages. We also have a bakery delivery each morning just outside the cottage.
First renovated in 2010 the cottage, the owners regularly update it between seasons and provide an on site maintenance if needed.
The cottage still retains its original beams, and now has all the comforts of modern day living, including double glazing, electric heating, and for the cooler nights, a wood burner.
Wi-Fi is provided along with Satellite TV with 5 English Channels.
The cottage is in a relaxing setting with a small sunny garden, patio seating and BBQ on one side and another large seating area on the other under the shade of a Walnut tree.
The cottage is ideal for couples or a couple and a child. A travel cot and high chair can be provided.
Our property borders the Somme Region with its vast History, hence those interested in both ancient and 20th century events are well catered for.
Crecy, Agincourt, Arras and the Vimy Ridge and the battlefield of the Somme are all within easy reach, as is the Atlantic Wall and visitor centres including La Capole. Should you wish to travel further afield Paris (day trip by TGV from Arras), Lille and Lens (new Louvre museum) are all in easy travel distance.
There beaches along the Cote de Opale are beautiful and each year host a kite festival at the end of April.
For those interested in antiques and french furniture, the Brocante season starts in April with many treasures to be found.
This area has something to offer everyone. You will not be disappointed and there is space to simply relax and enjoy the beautiful countryside.

About the host
Hosted by Mrs I Wood
We started coming to this area by means of renting a friends house to get away from our busy working lives.We liked this area and could travel from our house in sussex to Hesdin in 3 hours so it became a regular trip.
when some 5 years later my husband was offered early retirement we decided to take a chance and buy a property here.
we enjoy the all the area has to offer and family,friends and grandchildren visit often.

Why they chose this property
we like this area and the people in the village made us very welcome.
we spent 6 months renovating the cottage, taking all the bits from friends gites we liked and tried to put them into our own.
Some 15 years later we are still enjoying and looking forward to our guests arriving.
Many now return again and again.

What makes this property unique
The cottage offers all things to all sorts of people ,we enjoy meeting people and feel in a small way that for what ever reason they come to visit be it a first holiday, a special birthday or anniversary or just to get away from the stress of busy working lives that our guests have a good holiday and for a time they can relax and enjoy their stay.
