The house is located in a lovely village close to local shops. Tournus has some great shops and cafes and places to canoe/paddleboard and bike from. Be aware though that in August a lot of places close for the summer, including restaurants and boulangeries.
The house is beautiful from the outside and very eclectic and quirky inside. It takes a while to get your head around the layout but it’s a fun house to stay in. A small detractor was that the upstairs got very hot, especially at night, making sleep difficult. There were a lot of the owner’s personal belongings, clothes, photos etc., which aren’t shown in the photos, which made it feel more like staying with friends than at a holiday house.
The pool is brilliant - all one depth and has a safety cover. The courtyard is safe and secured with electric gates. There are also games like badminton available to play.
The owner, Agnes, lives on site in the courtyard. She’s very friendly and communicated well. We’ve been in touch since we left as we tidied some soft furnishings into the wrong place.
