We have owned Le Jarrier since 2004 when it had been empty for 20 years and needed total renovation. The Apartment was changed from a chambre d'hote to a self catering apartment with a kitchenette in 2020. The Apartment is situated in half of the main farmhouse. We also converted the former stable (separate to the house & apartment), into a gite / holiday cottage rental, which opened in 2008 We also have a large number of guests who make return visits to both our holiday rental properties.
