18th century coaching station

In the 18th century Le Vieux Relais was a coaching station situated on the corner of the village square. Today it is a well situated relaxing oasis that affords a unique insight into French village life.
Le Vieux Relais makes an ideal base for off-season visitors.
The house is very much a home as we live here year round. We have updated the premises with some unique amenities to provide maximum comfort for our guests at any time of the year, with central heating, to provide a comfortable environment in the cooler months and ceiling fans which add greatly to guests' comfort in the summer heat.
