La Grange dans la Foret is a huge 100 year old barn that forms not only a home for ourselves but also a spacious and extremely comfortable holiday gite situated in a quiet woodland setting a short drive from the amazing Bastide of Monpazier. We have tried to do everything possible to create a comfortable and relaxing environment and make you feel welcome during your stay. Our guest accommodation forms the lower half of one end of our huge barn conversion.
It is all on one level with a spacious and comfortable lounge/kitchen/diner. The kitchen is fully equipped with a range cooker, fridge freezer & dishwasher. It is a lovely sunny room and if you ‘do as the French do’ and keep the French doors closed during the day, the very thick stone walls will ensure the room will keep extremely cool in the summer.
The large pretty bedroom has a king-sized bed with an orthopaedic mattress, and ample hanging and clothes storage. Leading from the bedroom is a luxurious bathroom which has a freestanding bath, separate shower, toilet and basin.
Both the lounge and bedroom have French doors that open on to a large sun filled walled courtyard that has a covered terrace with a table and benches for alfresco dining and gas BBQ, The courtyard is totally private also has comfortable lounger steamer chairs (the perfect place for a quiet afternoon with a good book). An ideal place to enjoy the French sunshine!
We have spent the last 12 years converting what was originally a dark, windowless dirt filled barn, the largest in the area, to an extremely comfortable home for ourselves and a luxurious gite for our visitors. We originally lived in a caravan and have a complete photo album documenting our journey through the renovation. We are very proud of what we have achieved and hope our guests find it an ideal place to relax and unwind. Throughout we have tried to give the barn a homely contemporary decor which we hope you will enjoy. We have spent a long time choosing furniture in a typically French style and have tried to make it as comfortable as possible.
