Entry into the property is at ground floor level where, off the hallway is:

- At the top of the stairs there is a double bedroom to the left.
An open staircase leads to the second floor which has been remodelled providing

The Grounds
Passing through the gateway to the rear garden you come into the most delightful part of the property. Recently up-dated it is like a ‘secret’ garden with a swimming pool set in a ‘tapering’ meadow which has delightfully shaded areas. It is a perfect setting to while away those warm summer days. The pool, which is very private and looks across pasture land and is 11m by 5m with the depth ranging from 1m to 2.5m. There is a newly extended loggia providing shade to dine outside with an electrical point where you can keep a fridge for instant access to the cold beers etc. A selection of pool toys, loungers, table and chairs and kids play area are provided too for your enjoyment.

We absolutely loved la Salesse…. I was happiest there than I’ve been in ages. (It’s been a tough year, dad died in Jan). Window screens were great at La Salesse… and made life there more comfortable. No bites. The pool and view were stunning, and we occasionally had swallows dip in the pool for a drink in the eve which was amazing. The setting of La Salesse made it feel very private. Any way, I’d love to return to La Salesse.

We had a lovely week in your beautiful home relaxing in the glorious peace and tranquility! The weather was kind so much time spent relaxing by the pool and on the two cloudy days made the most of exploring the area. A jolly evening in Parisot on the last night, the French do love their karaoke!! We did some watering to ensure the beautiful plants didn’t suffer in the heat. I was intrigued by what I think was a smooth snake living in the hole in the wall on the left as you through the gate up to the pool…..it gave me quite a shock as it slithered away into the wall! The house was perfect, everything that we needed and many thanks for the basket of goodies that surprised and delighted us on our arrival.
