Garden:
The half-acre garden consists of lawn, patio, secluded 10m x 5m swimming pool, dovecote, outbuildings, barn, shrubs and trees. The pool is equipped with an alarm system, which complies with the recent much tighter French law. It will detect anyone entering the pool even a baby and the alarm can be heard from anywhere in the farmhouse and beyond. It is very easy to turn on and off, is child proof, and is self-alarming after one minute of inactivity in the pool.
The nearest town, with a variety of shops including a bakery, a spar type shop, garage, chemist, doctor, restaurants, hairdresser, post office and more, is Villeneuve-la-Comtesse, which is less than a mile away. A van delivers bread to the house but times vary. There is a large Intermarche in Beauvoir-sur-Niort, 5 miles to the North, which sells nearly everything you need. We recommend you do your first shop there on the way to the house if you have room in the car.
