Description

The original Farmhouse dates back to the 18th century. A traditional
French Longiere has the benefit of very few stairs, only two leading
into the bedroom area and three from the kitchen to the dining room.
The tiles in the lounge, kitchen and one of the bedrooms are original
and unique for the area. In the lounge we have installed a wood
burning fire which gives heat and a warm glow on the cooler evening in
spring and winter, comfortably furnished and has TV and videos, hi-fi
and cd’s, plus books and games for all ages. The oil fired central
heating provides warmth throughout the gite.

Amenities

Anjou has a separate lounge, dining room and kitchen as well as a
separate bathroom and toilet. Also two double bedrooms and one twin
room. Cot and travel cot highchair and pushchair are also available on

The heated swimming pool is positioned in the top garden which soaks
