| Description of La Grande Fougere: |
Located just 3 km from the medieval village of Cherveux with its 12th Century chateau, we are secluded but not isolated. Our property has been sympathetically restored and converted to a very spacious and comfortable home, which, with its tastefully furnished accommodation, attractive stone walls, original beams and ancient fireplace, provides a tranquil setting and base to explore this truly unspoilt part of France.
The Ground Floor.
The kitchen and dining area is well appointed with cooker, microwave, fridge, dishwasher and washing machine (plus iron and ironing board). It is fully equipped with ample cutlery, crockery and glassware for 8 people - and more should you wish to entertain. As well as the feature stone wall and beamed ceiling the kitchen and dining area contains the original 16th Century hay byre.
Adjacent to the dining area we have kept part of the original cobbled floor which leads to the VERY spacious sitting room with sofas and seating, open stone fireplace, feature stone wall, beamed ceiling , well stocked bookshelves and drawers full of videos and games. There is also a TV (BBC and ITV) video player and hi-fi. French windows lead directly onto the sun terrace - an ideal spot for breakfast.
The First Floor;
A large, airy bathroom with white suite and tiles,wc,washbasin and bath with showerscreen.There is also an additional seperate wc. Three bedrooms (two doubles with king size beds and one very large 'family' room with 4 single beds). Each bedroom has the very attractive, exposed beams and are carpeted throughout.
The Outside;
Leading from the sitting room is a sun terrace with table, chairs and sun umbrella. This overlooks the pool. Steps lead from the terrace down to the barbecue area and 10 metre swimming pool which is surrounded by lawn with sun loungers. There is also, a delightul area under the trees with a table and chairs to enjoy a drink in the shade.
At the rear of the property is an acre of meadow where you may like to sit and and enjoy the miles of uninterrupted views of the surrounding countryside - perfect at sunset - though should you wish to indulge in something more energetic, table tennis and boules are here for your use
