Monet

Monet has been carefully converted and restored from the original cattle barn, giving a total living area in excess of 100m2. It features extensive exposed stone walls (‘pierre apparant’) particularly upstairs and old and new wooden beams. Downstairs is predominantly decorated in ‘modern farmhouse’ style.

The ground floor consists of:

An open plan living/dining/kitchen area, with a separate shower/WC room with heated towel rail.

The first floor has three bedrooms, a family, a double and a twin. The family room has a double bed and a single bed with a roll-away underneath, both with full size mattresses. A particular feature of the room is the glazed pigeonaire. The double has a double bed and the twin room has two single beds that can be converted to bunk beds if required.

All bedrooms have plenty of storage space.

The kitchen is fully equipped with gas cooker and hob, 60/40 fridge freezer, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, toaster and all the facilities one would expect.

The lounge area has satellite television, DVD, Hi-Fi and two clic-clac sofas (that can be used as double sofa beds if required).

There are plenty of books and games.

The dining area can comfortably seat up to 10 people.

Outside there is a covered barn giving a shaded dining area - much needed in the heat of summer, overlooking the gardens with a range of seating and tables, including a BBQ.

Matisse

Matisse has been carefully converted and restored from the original cognac chai storage area, giving a total living area in excess of 100m2. It features extensive exposed stone walls (‘pierre apparant’) and old and new wooden beams. A particular feature is the double height living area, giving a very light and airy feel.

The ground floor consists of:

An open plan living/dining/kitchen area, with a separate shower/WC room with heated towel rail.

There is also a downstairs bedroom with a double bed and single bed with roll-away bed underneath (both with full size mattresses). This allows Matisse to be used as a 1 bedroom property if required.

The first floor has two bedrooms, a double and a twin, thus Matisse can also be configured for 2 or 3 bedroom usage.

The kitchen is fully equipped with gas cooker and hob, 60/40 fridge freezer, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, toaster and all the facilities one would expect.

The lounge area has satellite television, DVD, Hi-Fi and two clic-clac sofas (that can be used as sofa beds if required). There are plenty of books and games.
