The house
A family house, made for getting together.
Flint, brick and old oak beams: this 19th-century longère, a former farmhouse, has kept all its character. Renovated in 2024 and 2026, it sleeps twelve in comfort, families or friends, on the edge of the Perche.
Days here gather around a big table, a fire in the hearth, and a garden where children play until dusk.
The garden
4,000 m² of garden, all to yourselves.
A wide lawn, rose beds and fruit trees: cherries, figs, a pear, a hazel and raspberry canes. Children run about, grown-ups read in the shade, and in the evening the sun sets over the fields.

The terrace
Lunch in the sun, dinner under cover.
At midday, lunch is outside in the sun, or in the shade of the lime tree in front of the house. In the evening, the table for twelve is laid for dinner under the covered terrace, next to the barbecue.
Living spaces
A fire in the hearth, a long table.
65 m² of living space: a large sitting room open to the dining room, flowing on to the kitchen under the roof timbers.
Everything is ready for a great stay.
