Couples retreat; a French gite with a difference.....

A couples retreat where massages, Tai Chi and meditation are available to get your holiday off to a perfect start.
The beautifully restored gite dating back to 1798 oozes charm and character. With its huge oak beams and exposed stone walls it offers a true French gite experience, but with modern comforts.
Breathtaking views and wildlife are a haven for nature lovers. The gardens are beautifully maintained with table tennis, badminton and patong available.
Your private candlelit seating area is perfect for dinning and star gazing. The Milky Way can been seen from the gardens; a spectacular site.
A complimentary welcome food basket and bottle of wine will provide you with a light supper on your arrival day. Your first breakfast is also complimentary. A breakfast basket will be delivered to your patio or door at a convenient time.
Take a 15 minute walk in the morning to the village and collect your fresh croissants and baguettes, passing Chateau de Beauvais on your way.
The are some fabulous restaurants in the local area, the closed one just 10 minutes away in the local market town and one local brasserie will deliver to the gite.
With so much to do and see in the local area our destination really does allow you to do as much or as little as you wish.

Very much enjoyed the tranquil situation of the gite, it was very quiet with a lovely pool, we particularly enjoyed the end of the day sitting at the pool looking over the valley spotting the wildlife, Chrissy and Dave were both very helpful in every aspect.

stilte vakantie
zeer aangename omgeving met de ervaring van de afwezigheid van lawaai. ook 's avonds/ 's nachts geen lichtvervuiling. aangeduide wandelingen in de buurt en leuke marktjes en romaanse kerkjes in een straal van 50 km. wat het huisje betreft: iets meer opbergruimte zou interessant zijn voor mensen die wat langer verblijven. het lavabomeubel ( mooi kastje en degelijke kraan) is echt wel veel te laag!

Un cadre idyllique pour se reposer et profiter de la nature
Nous avons passé un merveilleux moment au Petit Coin! Nos hôtes étaient discrets et très attentionnés : panier de produits locaux a l’arrivée et premier petit déjeuner livré ! Tout est de qualité et très bien décoré, l’accès à la piscine nous est réservé presque toute la journée. Merci encore à nos hôtes pour ces superbes moments
