On the chillier evenings there is the wood burning stove in the kitchen to sit around and chat the night away. The down stairs walk in shower room is excellent for the less able bodied. The bedrooms are very spacous with plenty of storage facilitys, so no need to live out of your suitcase also the laundry room is adgacent to the garage, minimising the all too dreaded return home with laundry to sort.

The lounge/dining area has the original wooden polished floor, there is sky sports, tv, dvd, video and sterio epuipment all available to our guest with comfy leather sofas to sit and unwind, patio doors open onto the garden area, which is south facing. What better way to start the day than sitting eating breakfast with the sun shining through. The kitchen is a mixture of old meets new , there is a wood burner for those not so warm evenings to sit by and chat with a glass of wine also a breakfast bar for those less formal meals. The downstairs shower wet room is off the kitchen area . through to the the boiler room you will find the utility room and cycle storage, where there is the washing machine, a drying area, bbq equipment, childrens garden toys etc.

Description outside property: The south facing large mainly laid to lawn garden with apple, peach and cherry trees,black berry, raspberry and gooseberry bushes and flowering borders, a hammock, trampoline, swing and ball games to name but a few. A stone built bbq area is a real must on summer evenings,besides the sound of the birds singing and owls hooting in the distance, the only other sound might be a passing tractor ideal for all to enjoy weither young or old.We have garden furniture, giving you the option of eating in or out doors. We have bycycles for the children and the grown ups, taking in this beautiful mayenne country side for the more advantureous, or just taking a walk up to the village which is a short walk (10 mins) with Bar restaurants,small supermarket, post office, hair dresser, village fishing pond (day tickets purchased from the bar tabac), a very warm and friendly greeting awaits all from the local villagers. The lawn area is a good size and many a game of cricket and footbal have been played on it. The drive way will accomodate 3 vehicles comfortably and the whole cottage is securely fenced and gated, no worries about the children wandering off. Our 2 acre field borders the cottage and at present is home to 2 very well behaved horses, who adore the children and my peaches from the tree when ripe, an added attraction to the children and the grown ups

Description of eco friendly facilities: Wherever possible we like to recycle waste products and have a large compost bin in the vegtable garden where we grow all our own vegtables according to season, we also have water butts that save rain water for watering the veg and garden. The toilets have been installed with the low water consumption syphons as well.
