Attached to the house on two sides is a large wrap around veranda, which can be accessed from the salon and kitchen, with dining area outside the kitchen for al fresco meals. The veranda offers wonderful shade from the heat of the day whilst still enjoying the fabulous views. The veranda, only a few metres from the swimming pool, curves around the kitchen to a gravelled area which is ideal for games of petanque in the evening sun.

The 10m x 5m pool has a paddling pool area at its entrance, ideal for babies and toddlers getting used to swimming with their parents, the pool itself then opens up with a few steps to a level 1.5m depth. The pool is surrounded by a paved area where you can relax, read and enjoy the fantastic view. For those wanting a break from the heat of the sun, there is a pergola which provides shade.

Beyond the pool there is an extensive fully enclosed garden, dotted with walnut, cherry, pear, apple, fig and of course the aforementioned cypress trees, providing both character and shade to the garden. There is a gate at the bottom of the garden which leads to the house’s meadow which has a number of walnut trees and a large area of grass ideal for football or badminton.
