Gîte de L'ancien Collège

We had a fabulous stay here. The accommodation provided everything we needed with a fully equipped kitchen and plenty of space to eat outside. The pool was great to cool off in and the courtyard a great sun trap. The owners were really helpful and answered any queries very quickly. We would definitely like to stay here again.

A large and well equipped house with a private courtyard and refreshing pool in the shadow of the dramatic castle ruins. A great place to stay in the area.

My husband and I and 8 friends had an absolutely glorious week in this beautiful house in the heart of a charming historic village. There is plenty to see in the area, and on quiet days it was wonderful to chat and sun ourselves in the stunning courtyard. We had our dog with us and she enjoyed swimming every morning in the river that runs through the village. Fabulous views from the Midaeval castle bordering the house, and a lovely social club serving dinner in the village square were added attractions. Our host, Simon, could not have taken better care of us - a really special place to stay!

Very comfortable, well appointed house with excellent facilities. Don’t be fooled by the size of the pool, with the jet pressure on, you will have done well to survive 5 minutes swimming against the flow. A really lovely stay ; countryside is beautiful with some excellent restaurants close by. We there for a week, wish it could have been a year.

We had a glorious week at l’ancien College. The house accommodated our party of 9 perfectly with plenty of space inside and out. The pool was a great asset and the courtyard an oasis of peace and quiet after exploring the local area each day. The house is equipped with everything you might need, the beds are comfortable and the air con a real bonus in the attic bedrooms. Herisson has everything you could possibly want and the walks from the College are lovely. Altogether 10* accommodation, the owners have done a fabulous and sympathetic restoration job of this wonderful house.

A spacious house, recently thoroughly modernised and restored, in the centre of a historic village. The village, which is stunningly pretty, straddles the river and has good local facilities with a small supermarket and 2 pub/restaurants. The house has a sheltered courtyard garden with pool for cooling off and views up to the stunning ruins of the castle .

An undiscovered gem – Hérisson provides authentic French village life off the tourist circuit. Think sun on warm stone, hidden gardens, a shady walk along a river bank. Enjoy a restaurant, a bar, a village bakery all within a minute's walk. And return to a hideaway steeped in history where time seems to have come to a stop.
