Outside
Each gite has its own private garden, patio and BBQ. The patios are equipped with tables and chairs and a parasol. The gardens lead down to the river where you can relax and fish. At the front of each terraced gite there is a further patio area with loungers. The 10x5m heated swimming pool is shared and can be floodlit at night. It has roman style steps down into the pool and the terraced area has a selection of loungers, tables, chairs and parasols.
