Backing onto the pretty hamlet of Guitard whilst facing out southwards across the gently rolling hills, our farmhouse is situated in a very beautiful valley served only by narrow country lanes and surrounded by orchards, vineyards, pasture and cultivated fields. Along the ridge of the hilltops opposite Guitard passes the GR65 hiking path, the Saint-James- of-Compostella pilgrimage route. The house is south facing, bright and spacious. Our visitors comments will give you a first hand preview.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our elegant kidney bean shaped pool is situated in front of the house in the lower garden just across the lane amongst lilac, cherry and plum trees, with dense hedging behind and open views across the valley. The pool is tiled with special non-slip tiles and fully fenced off with high security fencing to the new AFNOR safety regulations. There are steps into the shallower end (about one metre deep) and a slope down to the far end deep enough for divers. The pool is in a wonderful suntrap. The swallows really appreciate it and provide entertainment diving in to drink when no one else is in!
French windows open directly onto the terrace from the kitchen making alfresco meal times pleasantly simple to organize. The terrace is furnished with table and chairs, parasol and barbecue and edged with colourful flowerbeds one of which we have planted as a kitchen herb garden for visitors to use freely. In the heat of midsummer refuge can be taken under the branches of the Judas tree. Due to the favourable orientation of house and grounds you can sit out in the sun from breakfast onwards and admire the gently rolling hills in all tranquillity.
