Le Fleuve

Two storey cottage set in its own romantic gardens beside our well. The ground floor comprises entrance hall, kitchen with woodburning stove and shower room. Large living/dining room with another wood burning stove. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, one with en-suite toilet room with basin (sleeps 3-4, but one bedroom is open plan to the stairs).

Fleur de Lys

Large Barn conversion all on one level, with very spacious rooms, high oak beamed ceilings and elegantly furnished in a sophisticated style. The entrance hall leads into a spacious kitchen with door to private garden space. The living/dining room has a woodburning stove with visible flame. The large bedroom with an extra king size bed has an adjoining bathroom with a bath/shower, basin and toilet.

LOCAL AREA

Our local villages of Le Grand Pressigny and Preuilly sur Claise, both with weekly markets, can provide you with all the usual French treats.

Recreational opportunities abound in the region. Biking on the almost traffic-free country roads is delightful. The many rivers will be of special interest for swimmers and fishing. Bird watching is especially well-rewarded in the Regional Park of the Brenne. There are numerous caves to explore and other outdoor activities include rock-climbing, horse-riding, tennis and golf.

Places to visit include:

La Roche Posay - charming and bustling spa town.

The beautiful village of Angles-Sur-L'Anglin - famous for its fine needlework.

12th Century abbey at Fontgombault.

St. Savin with its romanesque abbey church.

Chauvigny - beautiful town with fabulous medieval quarter and château ruins.
