What to Expect

In 2012/13, and working in close collaboration our architects and builders, we completely renovated the old barn in the grounds of Maison du Couvent into a modern gîte/holiday home.  At the same time they've carefully retained many of the authentic, traditional architectural features in the first floor bedrooms.  With a large terrace, lush floral garden and a 11m x 5m shared swimming pool, we opened in June 2013 and have been busy ever since.

Each of the three en-suite bedrooms have been professionally and stylishly restored with have views over the garden, across the pool or the valleys beyond. The kitchen has all you need, including a dishwasher, and is designed to make your holiday a breeze.

Quietly situated in a rural retreat Maison du Couvent is the place where you can truly relax and restore
