Additional Information

Description of facilities: There is a private patio area but the communal patio area has a brick BBQ, the ideal place for parents to get to know one another, while the kids play. We have had many an enjoyable evening with a BBQ and a few drinks.

The heated above ground pool is made of teak to fit in with the surroundings in the orchard. The pool is open from May - September.

The gardens are the ideal place to either relax by the pool, have a picnic under a tree, or just sit and read a good book while sipping a glass a wine.

There is a badminton net, swings, boules pit, swing ball, football net, and basketball net in the gardens, along with numerous games.
In the covered veranda area there is table soccer and a darts board.
The gardens are large and safe enough for children to play.

Just down the lane there is an 18 km Patrimoine walk through lovely countryside.



Description inside property: Plum Tree is one of four cottages that have been restored to provide
modern conveniences whilst retaining all the charm of a typical French farmhouse.
Leaving in lots of the original features, like granite walls and exposed oak beams.

Plum Tree Cottage - The ground floor consists of an open plan lounge/ kitchen /dining area, so Mum doesn't feel left out of the holiday and stuck in the kitchen.
The comfortable lounge/ dining area has a log burner, some granite walls and exposed oak beams.
The well equipped kitchen area has a door leading to a covered veranda.
The 1st floor has a shower room and 2 bedrooms, a large double bedroom and a bedroom with bunk beds both with granite walls and exposed oak beams.
The cottage is comfortably furnished and well equipped, a real home from home.
A perfect place for all the family to unwind, either by the pool or under a tree with a good book and a glass of wine.

There is a separate patio with garden furniture, sun canopy and a BBQ.
