House
Ground floor
The front door opens to an entrance hall (16 sq m - with original black and white tiled floor) that runs the depth of the house, providing access to all of the principal rooms on the ground floor. To the right a door opens to a reception room (21 sq m) with wooden floor, marble fireplace and moulded cornicing to the ceiling. To the left of the entrance hall a door opens to the kitchen (19 sq m) with wooden floor, charentaise fireplace and views over the garden. From here a door opens to a second kitchen / utility room with terracotta tiled floor, exposed beam ceiling and a door o the covered terrace. To the far side of this room is a small shower room with washbasin and WC.
To the far end of the entrance hall a door on the left opens to a second reception room (23 sq m) with wooden floor, marble fireplace and moulded cornicing. At the end of the hall, to the right, a door opens into a third reception room (20 sq m - currently laid out as a bedroom) with wooden floor. From here a door opens to an as yet unfinished room which was intended to be an ensuite for the ground floor bedroom. This room in turn opens back into the first reception room
First floor
A wooden staircase rises from a recess in the entrance hall to the first floor landing. To one of the landing, on the right a door opens to a charming double bedroom (10 sq m) with ensuite shower room and magnificent views over the château and the countryside beyond. To the same end of the landing, on the left, a door opens to a suite of two rooms (19 sq m in total) with a wooden floor and enjoying the same fine views as the first bedroom. To the rear of this room a door opens to an ensuite shower room with space for either a dressing room or a small kitchenette (this suite was originally intended to provide a family suite for chambres d'hôtes). To the other end of the landing, to the right, is a large bedroom (27 sq m) with wooden floor and marble fireplace. To the left of the landing is the last bedroom (24 sq m) with wooden floor and marble fireplace. These last two rooms require some redecoration.
Attic
A staircase rises to the unconverted attic (120 sq m). There are a couple low beams, but the space is useable and could provide additional accommodation.
Garden
The garden lies on the south side of the house and enjoys a wonderful view of the château. There is a gravelled parking area as well as lawns and flower borders.
Outbuildings
There are a number of outbuildings including a large barn (which could provide plenty of covered parking and storage space), a workshop, a stable and a former stone chicken house.
Paddock
Reached via a gate at the rear of the garden a short path leads to a large paddock/field (7825 sq m).
This is an historic house which once formed part of the property of the château but which is now an elegant and spacious private residence. It was run, until recently as a bed and breakfast.

France
France is situated in Western Europe, bordering the Bay of Biscay and English Channel, between Belgium and Spain, southeast of the UK; bordering the Mediterranean Sea, between Italy and Spain. The Mediterranean coast is characterised by hot rainless summers and mild and humid winters with an occasional cold north westerly wind known as mistral. Finally severe climates are found only in the mountains. High in the French Alps and Pyrenees, winters are long and snowy, sufficient to support ski resorts.
