The Old Goat Shed,character cottage perfect for two! private summer kitchen

Stylish French Holiday Accommodation with Optional Dining from an award winning Scottish chef, at our new pool house and pool terrace!

The Old Goat Shed is the ideal ‘get away’ gite, restored with taste, sympathy and style; this is truly a little piece of holiday heaven.
The cute lounge / diner has a log burning stove, electric radiator, TV (UK and French / European channels), iPod / CD player, comfortable chairs, and extremely well appointed kitchenette with hob, combi-microwave oven and fridge, with freezer compartment, as well as everything else you would expect to find in a romantic rural gite.
Also you have a very comfortable princess and pea bed as we call it, built over the old manger, we've provided an antique armoir and chair as well as copious amounts of storage under the bed itself, just off the bedroom you'll find a well equipped shower room with w.c and sink with a storage unit.
Moving outside the Old Goat Shed, you have your own private terrace with table, chairs, parasol and a stone BBQ for alfresco dining. We have surrounded your terrace with old vines and flowers to ensure you as much privacy as possible. As well as all this guests staying at the old goat shed have use of the summer kitchen equipped with a plancha and an electric oven, why not enjoy a romantic evening meal here or enjoy a glass of wine and watch the sun set.

Just steps away up the stone stairs you will find our new 9 metre by 4 metre heated swimming pool and terrace with plenty of space and sun loungers aplenty, as well as the Swedish log burning hot tub with open views over the countryside – a real relief after a days hiking in the country side or peddling along the many cycling routes on offer right on your doorstep.
Later on why not reserve your table with Richard and enjoy a relaxed informal dinner/lunch or drinks or why not just pop up for a chat
