Refurbishment of the
Downstairs Bedrooms
We have fully refurbished both
of our downstairs bedrooms;
La
Chambre Lavende
has become a Master Four Poster
En-suite Bedroom, the super king size bed is a hand made solid ash
construction:
The en-suite shower room
has also been fitted with a large chrome towel heater to improve the
airing of towels throughout the season and provide heating during
winter lets.
La
Chambre Vert has
been converted from a three bedded children's room to a second
Master En-suite Bedroom with the shower room also being fitted with a
large chrome towel heater
A new super king size sleigh bed
has been acquired:
If families need to be
accommodated, this room can still comfortably sleep three (by using a
single bed which is normally set up as a sofa).
We have also replaced all of the
downstairs doors to the bedrooms and bathrooms, with hand made solid
oak doors crafted by a local artisan.
Infrared Sauna
We have installed a 4 person
Infrared Sauna in the pool room.
We have selected the Infrared
Sauna over traditional saunas for the following reasons;
42" Hitachi High Definition
Plasma TV
To enhance the viewing of DVDs
and Satellite TV we have installed a state of the art 42" High
definition Hitachi
Plasma TV

TV
Along with our extensive DVD
library we are now able to offer a full package of UK Satellite TV
channels.

solid oak kitchen which has further enhanced the property. This,
combined with a new five ring, extra large, gas cooker ensures that
there is adequate cooking capacity to cater for the largest groups.

Swimming Pool Heater was also installed guaranteeing that the pool is
always at a minimum 24 degrees from March until November
(or warmer by arrangement).

Championship Snooker/Pool Table
A brand new 4'x7' slate-bedded pool table,
for playing pool, snooker and billiards. It is a Supreme
Prince which is currently being used as the official world
championship table. There are four cues of varying lengths to suit
all heights of adult players.
We also
have a small pool table situated on the mezzanine for the use of the
under twelve's.
Hammocks
To escape the sun there are two
hammocks located under a small stand of trees in the lower garden. A
single hammock is suspended from two of the trees, whilst there is a
double hammock which is located on a sturdy frame.
On
the terrace there is a chair hammock which makes an ideal place
to read a good book, whist still being in the sun and closer to the
main villa and pool area.
Basket Ball
To
the front of the property is a basket ball net which has an adjustable
height facility, which can accommodate all age groups from young
children through to the professional!
Stair Gates
As
an added internal safety feature we have installed children's
safety gates at the top and bottom of the stairs. The
one at the top is permanent, whilst the one at bottom is temporary and
can be installed on request.
New 28" Widescreen TV
To further improve our
upstairs entertainment area we have a 28" widescreen TV. This has been linked
to a DVD. We also provid over 100 DVDs and VCRs, but guests are also welcome to bring their own.
Air Conditioning
Following the exceptionally high temperatures experienced in the
Dordogne in 2003, we have fitted 2 air conditioning units in the upstairs bedrooms.
Telephone and Internet
Access
There is
a telephone in the property for both local and international phone calls. However, due to the unpredictability of usage we cannot
include the cost of phone calls in the holiday price. Guests are
welcome to use the phone as much or as little as they wish.
A
statement of usage for the telephone will be produced at the end of
each holiday and the total cost deducted from the breakage deposit.
Hair Dryers
To save
on your luggage and make life easier for all our guests we have
installed hair dryers in all our bathrooms.
Additional Child's
Bike
We have
added another child's bike to our fleet, it has five gears and is
suitable for a child up to the age of ten.
