Le Tournesol

Description

Le Tournesol is bright, modern and painted in sunny yellow to reflect its name of ‘The Sunflower.’ The tiled flooring through out is cool black and white, giving the gite a contemporary feel. All the accommodation is on one floor (60 m2). No access to the floor above.

The front door leads directly into to the spacious lounge/diner which is furnished with two comfy sofas (one folds out into a bed if needed), chairs, and at one end an oval dining table and chairs. The satellite television offers free to view channels and there is a Radio/CD player.

The separate kitchen is well equipped with all the appliances you need in a ‘home from home’ including cooker, microwave, fridge/freezer, washing machine, toaster etc.

The bedroom is furnished with a king size bed and opposite is a separate shower room with large (double-sized) shower, WC and basin.

The front of the property looks out onto the extensive gardens of Le Gabachou, which lead directly down to the banks of the Canal du Midi and a door at the back of the gite leads out to a small private terrace furnished with table and chairs.

Garden & canal:-

Our 3-acre gardens border the beautiful Canal du Midi

The 3 acres of grounds have been laid out with various shrubberies which have the affect of creating separate private sitting areas.

The three magnificent horse chestnut trees, directly in front of the house, also provide wonderful shaded sitting areas. We have fitted uplighters in each of the chestnut trees. These, plus the uplighters on the front of the house itself, and the stylish lights along the entrance, create a very subtle and pleasant ambiance of an evening.

Away to the left in the garden is the pool and table tennis area.

Furthest away from the house is a larger area that can be used for pitching practice and racket games.

Then, of course, there is a gate leading directly on to the canal, providing easy access for a stroll or a cycle ride along the canal.

There are cycle paths from the house into the town of Bram, to get your early morning bread and croissants, it's a distance of 4km - rucksacks and padlocks provided!
