Ground floor

• Very large lounge with comfortable sofas and pieces of Victorian pine furniture, with dining area, and the smart kitchen area is complete with single-drainer sink unit, fridge-freezer, gas cooker, and microwave oven. Tiled throughout with rose-coloured terracotta tiles, which contrast nicely with the clean white walls and 300 year-old beams, and the prie-dieu used by pilgrims for washing and praying.

Very high white-boarded ceilings and all roof timbers on show, full of character.In the corner of the dining area there is a stone receptacle, underneath an arched niche, thought to be for storing salted meat. Sadly the front section has been smashed out. During renovations the stone flag floor had to be lifted, imagine our surprise to find part of the broken stone receptacle, which had a cross carved into it. The assumption is that this was deliberately broken out during the French revolution, and hidden. It had lain there for nearly 200 years when we found it. The stone flags that had been removed were deemed to difficult to relay, they were all different sizes. Worst of all, different thicknesses, anything from 3″ to 9″, and not even flat. They are now residing in a local chateau that was being renovated at the time.
