La Maison en Pierre is a traditional stone built farmhouse on the edge of the unspoilt village of St Juire Champgillon in the Vendée region of France. Originally built for habitation on the ground floor, with a corn store (grenier) on the first floor, it is in the process of being completely renovated and will offer high quality and spacious accommodation from April 2009. The adjoining land has already been transformed into an extensive 2 acre, well-kept garden and will include a heated pool and children’s play area.

The house accommodates up to 10 people (plus 2 babies) so is ideal for large families or two families holidaying together. It boasts many original features, including exposed stone walls and large exposed beams in each of the 4 en suite double/twin bedrooms.

The newly fitted kitchen includes a range cooker with both conventional and fan assisted ovens, set into the original fire surround, a dishwasher, microwave and large fridge/freezer. The washing machine is to be found in the separate utility room.

The living/dining room is 9m x 6m and is equipped with UK satellite TV with all your favourite free view channels. The second sitting room and games room (6m x 3.7m) includes a computer with free internet and e-mail, DVD, Video and a Playstation 2. Various board games, toys, puzzles and books are also provided. A double bed is situated in this room as extra sleeping accommodation if required and would be suitable for guests with limited mobility, as a shower room and WC are also situated on the ground floor to cater for this room.

The 4 bedrooms are located on the first floor and each has an en suite shower room with WC. The master bedroom en suite also includes a bath. There are 2 double rooms with king-size beds and cots (not travel cots) and 2 twin rooms.

In the extensive gardens you will find an 8.5m x 4.6m heated swimming pool with a picnic & BBQ area close by, under the welcome shade of three large, mature walnut trees. A children’s play area comprising of swings, slide and climbing frame is also provided and ball games and badminton can be enjoyed on the extensive lawns. A large vegetable and fruit garden is on hand for anyone who gets their relaxation from digging! (Or maybe just a little gentle watering).

A small courtyard garden is attached to the house and is perfect for daytime relaxation, BBQs or evening drinks once the kids are in bed.

The house is fully insulated, centrally heated throughout, and has a large wood-burning stove in the living/dining room, so is perfect for out of season holidays and would be ideal for Christmas/New Year celebrations. Shorter lets can be arranged out of season (i.e. long weekends / midweek breaks), along with flexible changeover days. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.
