Le grand Champiau is our largest gîte, with room sizes to match.

Upstairs there is one double and two twin bedrooms, a bath/shower-
room, and a shower-room, there is a further WC downstairs off the
hall.

The large, fully-equipped kitchen marries the old with the new,
having exposed beams and stone walls, as well as all the mod-cons you
would expect. It is equipped with a range-style, wood-burning cooker,
separate gas cooker, dishwasher, washing-machine, microwave, fridge-
freezer, solid oak dining table, and solid ash work-surfaces. The
rear door from the kitchen leads out onto the private dining terrace
(including barbeque) and garden.

Across the hallway is an equally large, comfortable lounge with wood-
burning insert fire and corner games-table and chairs. It has a
supply of books and games for when you just need to unwind. There is
enough comfortable seating for all.

As safety and security are always a concern, the solid wood staircase
has child security gates top and bottom. There are smoke and carbon
monoxide detectors throughout, and a fire blanket is available in the
kitchen.

Extra warmth for the cooler months is provided by electric wall
heaters throughout the gîte. Hot water is supplied by two gas
combination boilers, so plentiful hot water at all times.

There is a connecting door to its neighbouring smaller gite, Le petit
Champiau (bolted if not booked together).
