Rodney: Myself, the wife, and our 3 kids enjoyed a short 3 day stay here. The barn is immaculate and wonderfully kept. Plenty of toys and space for the kids to play. Fred and Josette are fantastic and genuinely nice people who even let the kids help with the planting of tomatoes and onions. We loved this barn and the facilities (TV, DVD movies, great kitchen, lovely shower, great open space to relax....) and highly recommend it to anyone thinkng of staying in this area of France for a great break.
