What's in the gîte?

Obviously, we've stocked the cottage with enough of all the basics for everyone: cutlery, crockery, wine glasses and so on. Just so you're not guessing what we do provide and what we don't, here is a list of the larger items you will find available:

  • Electric oven with gas hob
  • Large fridge with freezer compartment
  • Dishwasher
  • Washing machine
  • Tumble dryer (although you shouldn't normally need it!)
  • Microwave oven
  • Toaster
  • CD player
  • TV (French terrestrial) with region 2 DVD player
  • TV (English freeview)
  • Barbeque
  • Mobile air conditioning unit
  • Travel cot
  • Highchair

Some things do get broken occasionally, so we can't absolutely guarantee the above but we will do all that we can to ensure these are available. Equally, if anything breaks while you are there or you discover that an item is not working, please let us know immediately so that we can get the item repaired or replaced as soon as possible.

We've also left some books, CDs and even records (you know, made out of vinyl). Please look after them but feel free to use them. If you want to take a book home with you, feel free - but leave another in its place so that others can have the pleasure of their use. (Please don't take the reference books, such as dictionaries, or the hard backs.)
