FACILITIES
Our guests can enjoy spacious and charming rooms with en-suite bathrooms and TV.
In the garden, there is a lovely swimming pool with sun loungers, cozy seating areas, and a fun summer lounge.
All of this within walking distance of cafes and restaurants in the center of Melle.
POOL
In our 8 x 4 m pool, you can always swim happily, cool off, and enjoy the sun.
GARDEN
Our spacious walled garden with swimming pool is 1500 m2 and is not visible from the road. It is wonderfully private with an unobstructed view of the Arboretum behind.
Around the pool are nice loungers, hammocks and plenty of umbrellas for when the sun gets really hot. Because we live near the Atlantic coast and halfway France, we have wonderful summer temperatures here.
SUMMER LOUNGE
Escape the sun to the summer lounge under the large veranda in the garden, where you can enjoy wine, beer, soft drinks, and ice cream in our ‘honesty bar’. Relax comfortably together or with other guests at the large tables or in our comfortable seating areas, or look for a magazine or game in the cupboard.
SURROUNDINS
There are many attractions nearby and for cozy cafes and restaurants you don’t have to look long. You will find 9 restaurants and 2 cafes right around the corner, 100 meters away from our B&B. In the area you can choose from beautiful villages, nature, castles and animal parks. In addition, you will find a large lake 15 minutes away or the Atlantic Ocean 1 hour away for a nice swim.
