In 2006-2007 the 18th century country house Brandelin was renovated with an eye to retaining many of its authentical elements. The house now consists of two separate units: the owners' home and the 9 person holiday home (the gite)
Throughout the year it is possible to rent our entire country house, which consists of two separate units: a 9-person holiday home and the owners' home (equipped for 6 persons). This is very interesting for larger groups up to 16 persons or several families desiring to spend their holidays together, as the house offers you lots of space including 2 livings, 2 large very well-equipped kitchens, 5 large bedrooms each with its own bathroom and a mezzanine as a sixth bedroom, etc.
