The Gite is an attractively converted barn which sleeps 10 in total - 5 bedrooms (1 in the self-contained suite) The original timbers have been retained combined with plastered walls these together with polished limestone and solid wood floors give it a light airy feel. Whilst full occupancy is 10 people not all parties are quite so large allowing those groups of 6-10 the opportunity to have rooms to themselves.
There is private access from the drive/parking area through an attractive covered terrace.
The terrace (30' x 13') features full height French doors to the house. At one end is a Dining area with fitted seats and sumptuous cushions for outdoor dining.
The huge living room (overall 35' x 22') is open to the roof beams and provides a cool and relaxing sitting, dining and kitchen area, off which is a family bathroom. 3 sets of double doors open on to the al fresco dining area. The kitchen is fully equipped with fridge/freezer, oven and hob, microwave, kettle, toaster, crockery, cutlery and all utensils usually required.
In colder weather the under-floor heating and large open fire, provide a cosier feel.
At one end of the main living room are 4 Bedrooms on two levels. On the ground floor down a few steps are two bedrooms (each 16' x 10') with a walk-in shower and WC between; one has a king size bed (150cm) the other a smaller double (140cm); French doors from each lead onto a terrace where the keener amongst you could watch the sun rise!
On the first floor off a small landing are two further bedrooms (each 13' x 13') with WC and Basin between; these have twin beds. The family Bathroom is off the main living room. In total the main accommodation sleeps 8.
The one bedroom apartment accessed through an adjoining door from the main living area; has French doors opening onto the pool; a sitting room (25' x 16'); fully equipped galley kitchen; bathroom and bedroom (16' x 16') with a luxurious 4 poster super king-size bed (180cm). French doors opening onto the private terrace command magnificent views over the fields and valley below.
This apartment provides very grand master bedroom facilities for a party of 10 but may be, and often is, let separately so please contact us for further information and availability. Sleeps 2
All bed linen and bathroom towels are provided. Pool towels are available.
Young Guests
Children of all ages can be catered for. Cots and high chairs can be provided for the very young, although cots may compromise the number of beds for other members of your party, so bear this in mind when calculating capacity - 1 cot means 1 less bed. [The adjoining self-contained apartment can take a cot in the double bedroom without loss of bed spaces.] When booking please remember to let us know if children are part of your party and if so how many there are and what ages they will be when staying. The kitchen is open plan so for safety's sake with toddlers you may need to use the "baby-dan" fencing which we have - please ask for this well in advance of your arrival.
Babysitting
Babysitting is available (by arrangement) during the evenings.
