“Train up a fig tree in the way it should go,
and when you are old sit under the shade of it.”
Charles Dickens
“Le Figuier” is more than a gite.
It is a comfortable and very spacious farmhouse. French doors from the courtyard lead into the lounge with its tiled floor and exposed beams and stonework. The sitting room is light and airy with ample seating for 8 adults. Cool in summer, it is equipped with a large fireplace holding a wood-burning stove for out of season use.
The kitchen/dining room is large and airy with windows and French doors opening up onto the terrace, providing views of the grounds and surrounding countryside. The kitchen is fully equipped with ample cupboards, worktops, cooker, oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge and freezer.
Upstairs there are 4 comfortable double bedrooms – 2 with king-size beds and 2 twin bed rooms; all with stone and timber features and having stripped oak flooring.
In addition, there are two good sized and recently renovated bathrooms, one with bath and one with shower.
