Le péré

Whenever you feel like staying in and relaxing, then the land of Le Péré is free for you to roam. There are just over 11 acres of grassland and trees for you to explore, with several benches dotted around when you need to just sit and be at peace. A medium sized lake is at one end of the property and contains various types of fish, making for a relaxing day for the keen anglers amongst you. Each gite has it's own patio with furniture for outdoor dining. The shared pool is ideal for cooling down in the high temperatures common here in the middle of Summer, or maybe for just sunbathing around the edge.
