La Grange is a large 300-year-old converted barn that combines rural French character with its stone masonry and exposed oak beams with all the trappings of a contemporary stylish living space.
4 bedrooms arranged over 2 floors sleep 8 people comfortably (or 10 if the sofabed in the open plan living area is used).
Full-length double-glazing and electrically-operated Velux windows provide plenty of light to the main space, which is cool in the summer due to its south facing orientation. In the winter, underfloor heating downstairs and electric storage heating upstairs provides cosy respite when you return from a bracing ramble.
After 5 years of painstaking renovation, La Grange is now available as holiday accommodation designed to provide you with those little extra touches that turn a good holiday into a great one.
The open plan ground floor of The Barn is an impressive space with high ceilings looking up to remotely-controlled Velux windows.
The lounge features a 42'' widescreen TV, with British satellite TV channels and a DVD player. We have a range of DVDs, games and toys suitable for all the family to enjoy.
The kitchen and dining room are large enough to easily cater for 10 (or more) and there's plenty of cutlery, crockery, and most importantly, wine glasses! The dishwasher will take the strain when it's time to wash up.
The pretty ground floor double bedroom (no stairs to climb) features french doors out on to the barbecue area, and an attached en-suite shower room.
There's also a separate downstairs toilet.
A galleried staircase takes you upstairs to the remaining 3 bedrooms. From the top of the stairs you can really appreciate the generous proportions of the living space.
A double room featuring Velux windows - so you can see the starry nights - and an attached en-suite shower room with power shower (which is shared with Bedroom 3). The en-suite is large enough to hold an infants' cot if required.
A twin room with Velux windows, a chest of drawers for storage and pretty soft furnishings.
Another twin room with storage and a window out onto the rear of the property. The room is attached to a bathroom which features a bath with powerful shower attachment.
The 10m private swimming pool (shared with The House next door) is great for kids and adults. It's a natural saline system which means no nasty chemicals are involved, plus it can be heated if necessary. We have taken care to install the necessary gating and alarm security systems so that younger children can't get into mischief.
We have provided plenty of poolside loungers and patio furniture (shared with The House) so that everyone can get their ideal poolside spot. There's a barbecue with kitchen utensils which - alongside a glass of decent red - is a great way to round off the day as the sun sets in the distance.
Cars can be parked in an allocated area for The Barn and the House which will securely accommodate 6 cars.
Your precious holiday time will be well spent at The Barn. It's a rare mix of rustic and contemporary and features everything you'll need to really take things easy, and explore the local area. Whether with friends or with family, we're confident you'll have a holiday to remember.
