Your English hosts Dianne and Ken welcome you to a French experience where you can enjoy good food, fine wine and a warm friendly atmosphere.
Our 12th century farmhouse has been tastefully adapted whilst still retaining many of it's original features such as exposed oak beams.
It is situated in its own grounds with panoramic views over the open countryside yet is only a few minutes walk from the centre of Courlay with all its amenities such as bars, shops, fishing lake and picnic area.
