Welcome to our charming Landais farmhouse, an epitome of regional architecture and culture, now freshly renovated for the coming 2024 season. This delightful property blends rustic allure with contemporary comforts, including modern amenities like TV, microwave, and high-speed fiber-optic Wi-Fi. Our photo gallery showcases the unique character of the farmhouse, captivating to many but perhaps not suitable for all preferences. In line with our commitment to your health and safety, especially during these times, we ensure thorough cleaning and disinfection between guests for a secure and hygienic environment. Each season here paints a different picture. The warmer months are perfect for leisurely woodland walks, riverside relaxation, or enjoyable barbecues in our garden. Winter in our region not only offers its serene charm, but it also becomes a haven for bird watchers, especially those interested in the migration of cranes. The colder months transform our surroundings into a peaceful retreat, perfect for enjoying the warmth of our fireplace. We recommend that late-arriving guests bring essentials (food!) for their first night and morning, as the nearby Super U closes at 7 pm. Complimentary coffee and sugar are provided, and our kitchen is well-equipped with a kettle, toaster, microwave, and oven for your culinary creations. Our farmhouse is not just a place to stay, but an experience of authenticity. It's a haven from the modern world, where time slows and nature's beauty is paramount. Ideal for family vacations, romantic getaways, or solitary retreats, it’s a setting for creating lasting memories. We eagerly await your visit to our special corner of tranquility in the Landais countryside, where rustic charm harmoniously meets modern comfort in a beautifully renovated setting for 2024.

Hello! I’m David (or Dave), and my wife, Mitzel, and I are the proud hosts of this charming farmhouse. I'm English, and Mitzel is from the Philippines. I speak French as my second language, and you might often find me a bit scruffy, as I'm always working on improving the property. Mitzel expertly handles the housekeeping. We live on the grounds and are available to welcome you, show you around, and assist with anything you might need during your stay. While we respect your privacy and ensure you can enjoy your holiday undisturbed, we're also happy to socialize and share stories or a bottle of wine if you're up for it. My interests are quite diverse, ranging from computer software development and electronics to skydiving and foreign languages. I’ve also become quite knowledgeable about septic tanks, though that’s not typically a popular conversation topic! Mitzel and I work together closely, dedicated to our business and ensuring all our guests have a wonderful stay. We look forward to welcoming you to our farmhouse and hope to make your visit memorable!
