They offer a specialised service to large groups of 3-generation families, groups of families, or sports/mountaineering clubs. The accommodation is extremely flexible and can cater for groups of any size from individuals up to around 30 people. In between larger bookings, the gites are let as individual units combined with B&B / chambres dhotes. Future Potential: The current owners have chosen to run the property simply as a husband and wife team with only very occasional help for whole-house changeovers. Whilst there is proven demand throughout the year, the business has been mostly closed through the winter months. There is enormous potential for further expansion from developing organised group holidays, such as retreats and special interest breaks, (yoga, painting, cycling, walking, boot-camps, etc.) to tapping into the lucrative wedding and corporate team-building markets. The building was originally operated as a hotel and restaurant which could presumably be re-instated if desired.Are you seeking a completely new way of life?
