Gite heating

During the Winter season the price for Bordeaux includes the cost of central heating. This heating is sometimes needed during mronings and evenings in the low season and is optionally available at an additional charge of £5 per day.

All the other gites are heated using electric heaters, and the additional charge is calculated simply from the number of units of electricity used, multiplied the cost charged by the French electricity board (EDF).

In addition (or as an alternative) Bordeaux and Burgundy both have large fireplaces, and we can provide firewood at a cost of 5 Euros per 'load', where a load is a 'level' wheelbarrow of 8-10 logs.

Optional Extras

We do make a separate charge for optional extras such as:

  • Linen packs - which contain bedlinen, towels etc.
  • Pets - Welcome if you let us know in advance - we have two very friendly dogs on site, normally found in our private garden!
  • Our wine supply service

All of these are described in more detail on our optional extras page.
