The 60 sq m garden, with lovely views across the vineyards and open outlook, is surrounded by an old stone wall and has the original old well.  Steps lead up to the 25 sq m terrace, with a super view, Gas BBQ, outdoor dining furniture and sun lounges.

SOME QUOTES FROM VISITORS TO LE CHAI

"Thank you for suggesting and organizing our holiday in 'Le Chai', it really was the most enjoyable, relaxing holiday we have had in a long time. The cottage is just lovely and in a perfect location for both relaxation and sightseeing. The photographs on the web site don’t do it justice; it really did excel all our expectations. We would certainly recommend it to anyone who was looking for a holiday in France."
