Les Marroniers (sleeps 4)   return to list of cottages

 

 

This is the "corner house", from where the property gets it's name ("Les Petits Coins") and is the right-hand part of the long house in the picture. It's a pretty stone cottage with all  rooms on the ground floor and its' own terrace leading into the garden.

 

 

The living room has a dining table and chairs as well as comfortable settees, coffee table and lamps, a  TV/video and dvd player with plenty of videos/dvd's to rent and a bookcase full of English books - a pleasant room in which to relax. 

 

 

 

 

The kitchen  leads off the living room (click on picture to enlarge) and is well equipped with crockery & utensils. There is a full size gas cooker, fridge, micro-wave, electric toaster etc. The washing machine is located in the shower -room, where there is also a vanity unit and WC.

 


Co-ordinated soft furnishings and tasteful decor in all the rooms make this a cosy and comfortable cottage.

 

 

Both bedrooms have built-in wardrobes, a chest of drawers or dressing table and bedside tables with lamps. One room has a double bed (click on picture to enlarge) and the other has two singles.

 

 

Outside there is a walled terrace with garden furniture, barbeque & wonderful views over the gardens & pool towards the Gironde estuary - the ideal spot for breakfast in the morning sunshine.

 

 

Le Chai (sleeps 5)   return to list of cottages

 

 

"Le Chai"   is a first-floor conversion of an ancient barn with wonderful exposed timbers & stone walls. It's light and airy and provides spacious 2 bedroom  accommodation for up to 5 people, with a split-level, open-plan living area.

 

 

 

There  is a fully-equipped  kitchen and dining area on one level (electric oven with gas & electric hob, large fridge, microwave etc) with a step down to a comfortably furnished  lounge area on the lower level.  As in the other cottages, there is a TV/video and dvd player, videos and dvd's are available to rent, there is also a book-case stocked with English books.

 

 

 

          

Patio doors lead from the lounge onto a large, elevated terrace with magnificent views out over the gardens & pool towards the Gironde estuary. Here there is a table and chairs for leisurely meals out-doors and a large  barbeque on the ground floor.                                        

     

 

There are two spacious and comfortable bedrooms; one room has a double bed and the other has 3 single beds, one of the beds (not shown in photo) is smaller than normal but big enough for a child up to about 8 years old.   Both rooms have double wardrobes, chests of drawers & bedside tables with lamps.

 

                    The accommodation is completed by the light & airy shower room which has a large shower cubicle, vanity unit and WC.   It's also home to the washing machine and other laundry equipment.

 

 

Rochards (sleeps 2)    return to list of cottages

Clean, cosy, comfortable and INEXPENSIVE !! 

The perfect base for people who wish to find their dream home.

 

This is a  traditional mid-terrace farm cottage, facing onto "Place du 8 Mai",  right in the heart of this sleepy little hamlet.

It has recently been totally refurbished and now offers comfortable accommodation for two people, all on ground level. Electric convector heaters in every room make it cosy for out of season holidays. This  area normally has very pleasant spring & autumn weather, with the added advantage of fewer visitors and cheaper prices!

 

 

There is one large  living room with a well equipped kitchen area  at one end with gas cooker, fridge, micro-wave, washing machine etc. At the other end is the dining area with a comfortably furnished sitting area in the middle. There is a TV/video and dvd player with a large choice of dvd's and videos to rent and also a bookcase stocked with English books. The bedroom is furnished with a double bed, wardrobe, dressing table, bedside tables & lamps.  Off the bedroom is the en-suite shower room with washbasin and  WC.

                                                                       

 

The main reason for the very reasonable rental for this property is that it doesn't have direct access into the garden -  the gate leading into the garden & pool area is twenty metres (just a few steps!) from the front door. Here you find your own private terrace with garden furniture, barbeque and some wonderful views over the valley and out to the Gironde estuary - the perfect spot for spending long, tranquil evenings watching the sun go down and the stars come out.

 

 

The price reflects its' short-comings but "Rochards" is  CLEAN, COMFORTABLE AND COSY and  ideal for 2 people looking for an INEXPENSIVE  base from which to explore the area or for those who are house hunting in the area.

Please note that at busy times there could be a small amount of noise from the barn conversion bedrooms above, but again this is reflected in the price.
