Set in the midst of vines, the ancient lovingly restored Domaine de St. Ferreol buildings lie in a 35 acre estate, comprising of 2 acres of wooded parkland, 1 km of riverbank, a bamboo park and natural water gardens and ponds. The natural habitat attracts a wide variety of wildlife.
For your relaxation there is a large swimming pool (13 x 6 m) with Roman end steps set in 3/4 acre of lawns, mature trees and parkland. It is bordered by a century old 2 metre high wall and a disused small canal over which there are panoramic views down to the river.
Set in the shady wooded parkland is a children’s play area with swings, a slide, a climbing frame, sand pit and table tennis, and the whole family can unwind playing boules, badminton, volleyball or croquet on the estate lawns.
You are free to roam the estate and surrounding land, the ancient vaulted wine cellar below the main house or stroll down to the river past our ancient watermill. There are plenty of nooks and crannies amongst the walkways in the park where you can sit and read or just relax and unwind, away from it all.
