Vacation Rental Description
My cottage has been recently (2005)upgraded from one of the "dependances" of the Chateau de Mt Fèlix, and was originally built in the 1840's from local tufa stone. We have an ideal southerly exposure.
The ground floor consists of an entrance hall with toilet tucked under the staircase. The main room has been divided into a comfortable fully-equiped kitchen and a living/dining room with a pullout sofabed. In the winter a wood burning stove supplements the under floor central heating and the radiators upstairs.
A full bathroom above the entry has a tub/shower,sink as well as a toilet.
Two adjoining bedrooms complete the first floor. Adjustable roof windows with darkening shades; a wooden balcony in the master bedroom overlooks the woods. The beds in each bedroom can be adjusted from two singles to two double beds (180X190) and 160X200).
