The interior retains a decor that matches the historic charm of the area with modern comforts added and a shared pool in the stunning gardens outside.

Access is by the side garden gate and all cottages are accessed by stone steps- sadly not suitable for wheelchairs. We will most likely be present living in the main Chateau and available to help and advise about restaurants and things to do in the area. We will share the pool and gardens.
