Situated at the back of a tiny hamlet in its own grounds the Marronnier is in a peaceful setting. There's plenty of space/seating/sun loungers for everyone. Large outdoor covered terrace with plancha, BBQ, outdoor sink, fridge.

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.
