Located in a 8,000 m2 wooded park, 5 km from the village and its shops and 11 km from the beaches of Cap de l'Homy and Contis, this small 19th century house combines the charm of its half-timbering with a contemporary interior. We acquired it in 1987 and have since completely restored it. It contains our objects, our memories... We wanted to keep this family atmosphere in opposition to the soulless standardization which, alas, is spreading today. It is simple, bright and very functional.
