It has been formed from the old grenier (or attic) of the “maison vigneron” and has been tastefully modernised whilst retaining as many of the original features as possible (the timber beams in the ceiling are more than 150 years old and measure more than 45 feet in length)
“Gîtes de France" have awarded it a 3 épis rating
The independent access ensures complete privacy for all users, whilst the choice is yours whether you want to use the privacy of the roof top terrace BBQ or enjoy the verdant freshness of your own garden BBQ.. Both come equipped with a full range of garden furniture

El apartamento es fantastico, tiene todas las comodidades y esta muy límpio (lo que se ve en las fotos y más). La piscina y zona comunitaria también es un encato. Los dueños son muy amables, dispuestos a ayudarte, aconsejarte sitios, etc y sobre todo desde el primer momento te hacen sentir como en casa, entre amigos. Recomendable al 100%, probablemente volveremos.
