New: the longère now welcomes guests
La Longère du Bois Massot
A grass path winding between flower beds and trees

The garden

A 4,000 m² landscaped garden, a covered terrace, and a lime tree for cool, shaded lunches in summer.

The garden

4,000 m² of green.

A large lawn, flower beds, roses and fruit trees: cherries, figs, a pear, a hazel and raspberry canes, along with eucalyptus, olive trees and a lime tree. Sun loungers and deckchairs are there for long hours in the shade of the trees, while the children play.

The large lawn and fruit trees
Rose bushes in bloom on the lawn, beneath tall trees
A large pink rose in bloom
A strip of lawn along the wooden fence
The lawn and flower beds seen from upstairs, with meadows beyond
Garden beds and a large oak tree, late in the day
The table laid under the covered terrace, open to the garden
A table for twelve laid on the lawn by the north front, with the barbecue

The covered terrace

Lunch in the sun, dinner under cover.

At midday, lunch is outside in the sun when it is not too hot, 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, right by the kitchen French window, with the charcoal barbecue close by.

Outdoor games

Table tennis, Mölkky and pétanque.

The table-tennis table is sheltered under the terrace. Pétanque balls, Mölkky and tennis rackets are there for you.

Sunset over the fields, seen from the garden

On summer evenings, the sun sets over the fields.

The longère from the sky

Aerial view of the house among trees and fields
Aerial view of the longère, its flat-tile roof and dormer windows
Along the south front: sliding barn doors and a paved path

South side, north side

The south front, its barn door and the garden
The north front, re-rendered in lime, and the lawn in summer
The longère behind the flower beds, framed by foliage
The gable end and its sliding barn door over a glazed door

And for neighbours, horses, a donkey…

Two horses in a neighbouring meadow
A pale-coated donkey in a meadow
Cows grazing in a meadow by the edge of the woods

…and of course, Normandy cows!
