    The kitchen measures 6m x 4m and is fully equipped. There is a 3m x 1.2m table with seating for 12 people. Two fridges for food and drink plus dish washer and all mod cons including coffee machine, liquidiser, toaster and microwave. High chair available for babies. Huge open fireplace.

    Meals

    Advance booking required

    Dining room

    Seats 40

    Not one but four 'Dining Rooms'!

    1) The Kitchen has a very large solid Elm table with seating for 12 . In the summer we rarely eat here at all.

    2) There is a super covered poolside terrace with another solid Elm table and seating for a further 14 people. Perfect place for the morning sun and shade from the midday lunchtime sun.

    3) On the front terrace, we have a large oval 2m x 1.45 Westminster table with seating for a further 12 people. The sun sets at 21.45 in the summer and this is the place for those sundowners and meals that continue into the small hours.

    4) In addition, there are two smaller tables seating up to 8 people, usually placed under one of the various trees. This is often our preferred choice for breakfast or
    lunch, overlooking the vines in the shade of the trees.

    Living room

    Seats 12

    A beautiful beamed room that measures 8m x 5m.

    There are three settees and numerous armchairs. There is a new 40" flat screen Samsung with all English terrestrial channels and a DVD/VHF player. There is a desk with wi-fi, hi speed broadband and unlimited internet use. There is a PC, keyboard, flat screen monitor and printer for our Guests to use.

    A huge oriental carpet takes pride of place and the fireplace together with some wonderful French antiques makes this a very relaxing and lovely room.

    DVD, CD player, Fireplace, Sofa bed

    On-site facilities

    Onsite facilities

    1) Games include Table tennis, badmington net, short tennis net, floodlit boules, profession croquet set and even baseball/softball in our 15 acres. (We'll even have the 'diamond' cut and prepared).

    2) There are 7 bicyles of various sizes and more can be hired.

    3) Hot air balloon. Have a trip of a lifetime right from the front door. Take off from La Tuilliere and go wherever the wind blows.

    4) There are 12 sun beds.

    5) There is unlimited parking on the property.

    Badminton, Balcony, BBQ, Bicycles available, Car parking, Garage, Garden, Outdoor pool, Sun bed

    6 car parking spaces

    Other facilities

    1) No air conditioning but with 2' thick walls the house is generally cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

    2) Full wi-fi and hi-speed broadband with Internet access is provided 24/7 at no charge. There is a flat screen monitor, server and printer for those all important boarding cards. We have a full 5 bar signal for your other electronic devices so (sadly) Blackberries and other smart phones also work perfectly at La Tuilliere.

    3) DVD/VHF player with all the Disney cassettes and many DVDs.

    4) At the start of your holiday the house will be immaculate and we would ask you to leave it in a similar state. We allow our Maid 4 hours to turn the property around after you leave. If you require daily maid service or additional help on departure this can be arranged.

    5) We have a Renault Megane Convertible available for those who want it. This is not for the 'Tour de France' but as a back up in case the main family car is stuck at the golf course for the day or if others in the group are on a site seeing trip! We charge £50 per week with a restrictive mileage of 250 kilometres per week.

    Computer available, Wired internet access, Wireless internet access, Linen and towels provided

    Other notes

    There is tree covered parking for several cars at the top of the drive adjacent to the house and unlimited parking beyond.
