Les Hirondelles offers three beautifully renovated holiday gîtes. For information on each individual gîte please click on the links below:
Each gîte has all the kitchen, dining, and bedding essentials you need for a self-catering holiday.
There is also English and French TV, DVD players, and free Wi-Fi.
For a more extensive list of what is included in each gîtes check out the Amenities page.
There is a lovely terrace with outdoor seating and dining, with barbecues and garden furniture for each gîte.
All of the gîtes have access to an enclosed garden and shared swimming pool.
There is a 10m x 4m in ground swimming pool which is shared with the owners and other guests. The pool is unheated but covered when not in use to keep the water temperature at a good level. Normally in the summer we try to keep the water temperature between 26 and 29 degrees. In early and late season the water may be quite cold (we don’t open the pool unless the water is at least at 22 degrees).
The pool is in a secure gated area with its own terrace and beautiful views across the valley and is available each day between 10am-12pm and 2pm–5pm (and at other times by arrangement).
Please note that we are in an area that experiences frequent severe droughts so we therefore ask guests to be careful about water loss from the pool so that we can be good citizens. There is strict policy of no diving, no jumping and no splashing because of this.
In the walled garden there are swings, a slide and plenty of outdoor toys for small children.
There are also family games including badminton, boules, croquet and table tennis.
Each gîte has a woodstove with a supply of firewood. Electric heaters are also available.
Portable fans are available, and Rose Farmhouse & Vine Cottage have ceiling fans.
There is also a newly fitted air-conditioning unit in the master bedroom of Sunflower Cottage.
Bed linen is included.
