About this house rental
La Petite Grange is a welcoming two bedroomed converted barn ideal for two couples or a family. It has a large terrace and barbecue to fully enjoy the mild Spring and Summer nights and the wonderful colours of Autumn, shaded by an awning and a beautiful fig tree.
The ground floor is open plan with a custom built vaulted kitchen, stairs to upstairs and a further vaulted lounge/dining area. The downstairs bedroom is very large and has a double bed which converts into two single beds and an en-suite shower room. There is a door to a small gravelled garden with table and chairs. The upstairs bedroom is spacious and houses a double bed with a shower, wash basin and WC en-suite. There is a child gate at the top of the staircase. Both bedrooms have plenty of space for a baby's cot. La Petite Grange has 1 metre thick walls and so is very temperature neutral throughout the year.
We also let La Magnanerie (Property number 1074115) which is an adjoining gite with two bedrooms for 4 people, so if you wish to come as a group, both properties can be let at the same time, subject to availability.
In addition to the terrace, there is a shared grassy garden area with sun loungers, benches and a parasol.

We loved the house, beautifully restored with all the mod cons you need. The walls are really thick and block the heat and the sounds of the road to provide a cool and quiet experience. The reception was warm and welcoming. We received lots of interesting info about all the things what the area has to offer.

Clean, comfortable and well equipped. The beds were comfy and there was plenty of hot water. Our first two evenings were cool and damp outside and the gite heating struggled. Once the sun arrived it was fine. Sitting on the terrace in sunshine was enjoyable. Sadly it is on a busy road and the noise is noticeable. There were some condiments left by previous occupants which seemed very old.

My husband and I spent 6 days in La Petite Grange with our 4 months old baby. Jane provided the spacious bedroom with a baby bed, a changing mat and a small baby bath, which was really nice. We appreciated that a lot. Thanks again! The terrace is very nice, the kitchen is well equipped, the lower floor has always been cool even though it was hot outside and the parking next to the house is perfect.
We only used the bathroom upstairs because the other one was quite narrow. Which was too bad was the fact that a prefectural decree prohibits barbecues in the summer months in this area. Of course, it has nothing to do with Jane and Alan, it’s just a side note 😊
All in all a great starting point to discover the Ardèche. We enjoyed our stay.
