Entering through the courtyard, you will find a small terrace with access to the kitchen and living room.
The courtyard provides private parking space for large sedan or SUV car. There are ample other free parking spaces available in the village.

Once in, you can see some of the old beams and details, showing you that this level is the former cellars of the old farmhouse.

Wifi network with 3 mesh extenders for wifi signal spreading across house and garden (with limitation only in the annex house)

The lush garden is fenced, thus ideal for children, and shielded from view. There are plenty of trees for shade in the summer and pretty plantings all around the edges. The pool deck is secured with a removable fence. Groups without small children can make prior request to remove the fence ahead of their stay, for a clearer view, at their own responsibility.
A large table, sitting 10, and parasol are positioned near the pool for summer dining. And an outdoor lounge place is great to whine the day away.
