In a peaceful setting, step into their home and discover the result of several months of work: the transformation of a rustic old barn into guest rooms designed to host your most cherished memories.
From the moment you enter, a charming large table welcomes you. In the spirit of days gone by, it brings travelers together for breakfast or a convivial dinner, for those who wish. A shared meal, but also a moment of discovery, exchange, and friendliness that is sure to delight you.
Upstairs, two suites open their doors to you. Each features a comfortable bed, a small sitting area, and a private bathroom.
These two spaces, however, each have their own distinct character:
The first retains the soul of the past, with a timelessly charming dressing table, a wardrobe reminiscent of our grandmothers’ homes, and a “British” touch paying homage to the building’s origins.
The second offers a subtle balance between authenticity and modernity: behind an old wooden door, discover a bright and elegant room where exposed beams, stone walls, and contemporary furniture blend beautifully.
After a winter dedicated to improving their home, Flo and Fred are now thinking bigger: new projects are coming to life to offer you unique nights close to nature starting next spring.
For lovers of the great outdoors, two large tents will soon be available, each set on opposite sides of a vegetable plot. The perfect opportunity to live in harmony with the land and share the passion of your hosts, always delighted to connect and tell their story from the heart.
A little further away, in the calm of the woods, treat yourself to a night under the stars, comfortably tucked into a bed protected from the rain.
A transparent greenhouse, isolated from the world, offers a cocoon of serenity and a breathtaking view of the surrounding nature. Let yourself be gently awakened by the first rays of the sun and enjoy this unique spectacle.
To complete the experience, you will likely meet Madame Lulu, an adorable Kunekune pig and the future mascot of the place. Still discovering human interactions and learning a few playful tricks, she is sure to steal your heart!
Don’t hesitate to book your stay now!
