The house is very well-equipped and comfortable for a family holiday.
The kitchen is bright and airy, and has a gas/electric cooker, microwave, large fridge/freezer, electric kettle, toaster and so on. It adjoins the dining room, which has a large round dining table, with crockery and seating for up to eight people.
There is also a CD player and some comfy chairs, giving an alternative relaxation area to the living room.
The living room has three sofas, one of which is easily converts to a very comfortable double bed. There is a TV and video (plays UK videos), and a small video library for kids and grown-ups. The TV can receive French terrestrial channels as well as English language digital sarellite stations, such as BBC1, 2, 3 and 4, BBC News 24, Channel 4, CNN and CBeebies, plus loads of radio stations.
There is a stereo system and lots of CDs for you to play. There are several board games and packs of cards. Finally, there is a small snooker and pool table, which can be strangely addictive.
The bathroom is situated downstairs, and has a loo and washbasin as well as a full-sized bath and over-bath shower.
The main bedroom is also downstairs. It has a king size lit bateau with a very comfortable mattress.
Finally downstairs, there is a huge garage which is home to the washing machine, tables and chairs for outdoor use, a barbecue, games equipment and a few bicycles.
The central heating boiler is also in the garage, as are steps up to the unconverted loft area.
A fairly steep flight of stairs leads up to the other two bedrooms, which are inter-connected.
Firstly, you come to a room with a double bed, which leads into a larger room with three single beds.All the beds have duvets and pillows, but you are requested to bring your own linen.
To the front and side of the house there is lawn, while at the back is a large orchard (cider apples and plums, mainly), and another field of grass. Feel free to help yourself to whatever fruit is in season. On a warm day there is nothing nicer than taking one of the reclining chairs or a blanket up into the orchard and nodding off in the shade of an apple tree.
The owners feel this is a safe environment for children and theirs play freely throughout the garden and orchard.
It's worth pointing out that there are a few things you'll need to watch out for (the steps up from the garage to the loft and the old boarded-up well....) and that you are responsible for the well-being and safety of your own children.
Lettings start and finish on a Saturday. Please bring your own bed linen and towels.
