Sinclair family review of La Grange du Moulin, Horloge holiday cottage, child aged 2 yrs

We had a wonderful stay at La Grange du Moulin. Wendy and Chris are brilliant hosts and we felt instantly relaxed ! Our 2 year old had lots of fun playing  in the garden which we could see from our gite. The gite itself had everything we could need for a toddler in tow. The activities that went on for the week  were great fun. Highlight was the teaddy bear picnic ! There is lots to see and do in the area. We can't wait to come back !

The La Grange du Moulin child friendly gites property located in SW France , welcomes families. The family friendly property has two safely enclosed heated swimming pools, one specifically for toddlers. There's a large enclosed play garden filled with toys and we hold children and toddler activities each week such as pottery and fabric painting and even scuba diving! 

Horloge gite sleeps five in three bedrooms, ideally 2 adults and up to 3 children plus a cot. The master bedroom has a king sized bed (160x200) with fitted wardrobe and set of draws, there is a twin room and a spacious single room with wardrobe and set of draws.
