Les Hiboux is owned by a couple with a small child who know the importance of creating a holiday environment that maximises the enjoyment of both parents and children. To call the garden and grounds an adventure playground is perhaps an over-statement, but there is much to stimulate and provide hours of pleasure for the children. This in turn allows parents to relax on the terrace or poolside, knowing that they don't have to continually think of what next to do with the children. Meanwhile out of season guests, without the constraints of school holidays can enjoy the property in all its peace and tranquility.

Two boule pitches allow children to use one while Mums and Dads can use the other. Bicycles for all ages and a games room with pool, table football and darts are all available while another large barn houses the table tennis table. There is also a wide range of toys, books and board games.

To lighten the travel burden, cots, highchairs and other equipment are available upon request. Videos and DVDs are also available for your entertainment.

Deep in the French countryside, this is truly a holiday haven.
