The cottage is fully equipped so you can relax & enjoy your holiday. This includes the free Wi-Fi throughout the cottage and extending outside to all the dining & relaxing areas, including poolside. We positively encourage you to post lots of pictures of you enjoying the Gite & pool!
The large beamed, double height lounge diner with feature fireplace creates a “wow” factor. When you see it I’m sure you will love the light airy feel & the beauty of the old Elm beams. The lounge has a large leather sofa, further sofa chairs & a dining table which seats eight. It has a large flat screen Smart TV with English Sky Freeview channels & a DVD player if you fancy a little time inside. The lounge also has a new log burner but we very much doubt you will need any extra heat!
Downstairs there are two bedrooms: One is a large bedroom with a King-size double bed & an ensuite with a shower & toilet.
The other smaller bedroom with luxury twin beds and a family bathroom with bath, separate shower, toilet and sink.
Above the lounge on an open mezzanine, there is a romantic king bed & dressing area.
Off this area is the ‘Den’ the attic room, with low ceiling height, suitable for up to two children with the added bonus of a “chill out” room with bean bags and games.
The family bathroom with toilet & bath & separate shower unit is downstairs.
The Gite is approached through double gates to a large front garden containing a plum tree & flowering hibiscus. The views to the front look out over the fields of sunflowers, wheat or maize towards the church at Sousmoulins that is beautifully lit up at night.
In the rear garden chill out under the gazebo with a seating area shaded with vines to or the extensively terraced luxury swimming pool with ample sun beds & umbrellas.
For outside dining there is the private terrace area with dining table & chairs & BBQ adjoining the fully equipped kitchen.
If you’re a little more energetic the garden is also equipped with an all weather table tennis table, a slate bed pool table, the traditional French game of boule, a badminton net & racquets & a croquet set.
The highlight of the rear gardens is the
10×5 metre heated swimming pool & decked area.
The pool is shared between the Gite & house but it is yours to enjoy in tranquility, used only by us whilst you are not. It’s situated in order to be in full sun from dawn to dusk & has an in-pool seating area so you can soak up the rays, whilst sitting & drinking your sundowners in the cooling water….
The pool is open between 10am & 8pm but those times can be varied by mutual consent. If you need to swim a couple of miles before breakfast who are we to stop you!?
Vacheroy has a fully equipped kitchen dining area with all that you will need for your stay.
The kitchen/diner is newly fitted & has everything you’ll need whether you love to cook a little…or a lot. It is equipped with a new large fridge freezer, a gas hob with electric oven, a microwave, four slot toaster, coffee machine, washing machine and dishwasher. In the cupboards you’ll find all the cutlery, crockery, glasses & kitchen implements you’ll need to cook up whatever feast you fancy.
We have two mountain bikes you are welcome to borrow at your own risk! One mens & one ladies. If you like to bring your own bikes we can store them securely & this area is fantastic for cycling.
The roads here are very quiet & in France cyclists are given the utmost consideration – it’s the law! As a keen cyclist myself I’d be happy to point you in the right direction & suggest itineraries etc. There are many marked cycle routes in the area.
If you aren’t able to bring your bikes with you, we can arrange for cycle & accessory hire through www.bikehiredirect.com who will deliver it all to your doorstep.
