Stone built Manoir Les Gaillardoux sits in its own 1.25 hectare park and orchard and features fine examples of the local architecture, including a large coach house, a barn and a round 'pigeonnier'. The house and its wing were built in the 17th and 18th Centuries. Many of the rooms have high windows with views over the countryside. Most have beams and antique tiled floors, and the dinning room has a wide open stone fireplace for wood burning in winter or on cooler autumn evenings.
