From the large picture window of the main house you can see the walled garden which is a little haven with its heated pool, gazabo and seating. The wafting lavender and raised wooden garden beds make this the perfect place to relax and unwind.
The large lawned garden leads to the grassy meadow where there is badminton, trampoline, swing set, boules and table tennis to keep the children happy, lots of space to play as well as lots of tracks and trails straight from the property.

Le Marronnier is an ideal base for sight seeing with lots of tourist attractions nearby, restaurants, chateaux, famous caves, historic towns, quaint villages, truffle orchards/restaurants, local markets, canoeing, velorail, acro branch, horse riding, walking trails. Also lake beaches, one with water skiing, paddle boards. Locally you can also book with the local Tourist Office to go gold panning, caving and rock climbing ........There are electric mountain bikes available to rent locally.
