Play garden
Our large enclosed garden has a sandpit and swings including a slide and baby/
toddler swing and a little play house too. There is plenty of space to play boules or ball. The play garden and sandpit is next to the Vierge and Baleine garden cottages. The Vierge cottage has a complete view of the garden, Baleine cottage does not have a view due to it's private walled courtyard but you can hear the children call. The play garden also backs onto the Pavillon villa. There are numerous large trees around the garden creating plenty of shade and also lots of super hiding places. There's also a communal barbecue area with large wooden table with parasol so families can socialise together. Sit back with a glass of wine chatting to other parents while your toddlers and children play in full view in the play garden.
Swimming pool
Our swimming pool area is completely
enclosed by a 1m80 high wall and is accessed by one gate which is self closing and has a child proof latch. The main pool is also alarmed for extra security. It is heated to 28c* using an efficient heat pump and even younger children will happily swim / play in it. The older children will be hard to get out of it. Toddlers and young children can paddle in the gently sloping beach style entrance. There is also a bubble pool. There are two sunbathing areas surrounding the main pool with plenty of sunbeds.
* activities held at nearby La Grange du Moulin , 2km away. For detailed info on these and more visit our blog
* Heat pump thermostat set to 28c but does not always reach this temperature , not heated in June or September
