Photos and Description of the Beaucaire vacation barn rental
Detached comfortable gite, 4 bedrooms, sleeps 8 plus cot, with private pool

Le Merlat offers the ideal base for exploring the area, or for just relaxing by the pool and enjoying the feeling of total relaxation that the beauty offers. The Gite sleeps eight plus cot, and comprises four bedrooms, bathroom, shower room, separate WC, kitchen and lounge/dining room. The kitchen is well equipped and leads through to the spacious lounge/dining area, with exposed beams. This room contains comfortable seating for eight, and dining table and chairs for eight. Outside the paddling pool, sand pit, garden furniture and barbecue are situated in the grassed courtyard area which is predominantly a private area for use by the guests. The pool is for the private use of guests and is fenced. Sun loungers and play equipment are provided. There is a large variety of wild life including the resident barn owl, many other birds and red squirrels. We can provide meals if required using our organic produce. Our aim is to help our guests have a great holiday.

We have a small farm and a market stall selling our produce. Depending on the time of year and what is available guests are welcome to help with bottle feeding our lambs - children love doing this. We also supply a complimentary welcome basket containing items such as local wine, home made jam, lemon curd and our very fresh eggs.

Youngsters also love finding the eggs that our hens hide, and our 2 collies love playing with the guests. We also provide meals if wanted. The gite is non smoking, but guests are welcome to smoke outside. Out of high season we have flexible changeover days and will book for less than a week.
