CHARGES
Charges
What is included in the charges?
Everything!
No extra charges for linens/towels, electricity or water.
Maison des Fleurs is a cosy, well insulated little cottage (50 sq m) with electric radiators in every room, including the shower room. Many gites are not suitable for occupation during the colder months, but this house is very comfortable in all seasons. If you are considering buying a property in this area (and it took us years to find this wonderful part of France with such a good micro climate) then you will find our house a much better option than using Hotel accommodation - contact us for out of season longer term (i.e. more than one month) rental offers.
Please note : The second bedroom is tiny - it just fits a single bed - we prefer this to be used for children under the age of 12 years but it is always made up and available for your use should you need to sleep separately (someone snoring perhaps?). If you wish to use the cottage with 3 adults that is entirely up to you, no additional charge will be made, but please be aware that this is a small cottage and the facilities are really best used by 2 people.
Contact direct at mdfthezan@hotmail.com for all charges
Please note that this property is not suitable for children under the age of 5 or for those with disabilities, this is entirely due to the structure of the building. There are 2 flights of stairs (though very shallow and easy to use) and the toilet is on the ground floor. This is an ancient building with beams and tiled floors and all the features you would expect from a very old property - it has been renovated with love.

Appartement de Roses et de Vignes is a very large, (60 sq m) one bedroomed apartment which is suitable for two people - three by arrangement - the lounge daybed is, in fact, a single bed, so extra linen can be provided. The apartment is accessed via a small spiral staircase and, once in the apartment, everything is on the same level. The apartment has a large, secure garage for your use and there is also a small courtyard, at the front of the house, that is solely for the use of the apartment guests. Ten minutes walk away, on the banks of the River Orbieu, is a very large garden that incorporates a wild flower meadow - there is a parking spot there if you decide not to walk, and the area is again solely for the use of our apartment guests. As with Maison des Fleurs, this apartment is not suitable for those with a physical disability due to the initial access.
​
The apartment has been renovated to reflect the era in which it was built, 1880, it is filled with wonderful French antiques but is very comfortable and has all the necessary modern amenities including wifi. The bedroom is air conditioned and all the rooms also have heating, should it be necessary in the colder months.
​
Should you wish to take the apartment for a long term let there will be a discount offered.
