The Bread Oven owes its name to the stone bread oven that stood there when the building was used as a farmhouse. The spirit of the old walls has been preserved during the renovation. Today, it is a two-bedroom gîte for four people—ideal for a family with two children or two couples.
Inside, you'll find a welcoming living room with satellite TV, a fully equipped kitchen (dishwasher, oven, stovetop, microwave, washing machine, and complete set of crockery and cutlery), two bedrooms, and a bathroom. The first bedroom has a double bed (140 cm), and the second has two single beds (90 cm). Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property.
Outside, your private garden with garden furniture and barbecue — very convenient for outdoor meals on summer evenings.
