The gardens immediately surrounding the house are terraced and easy to maintain with gravel and stone paths. Mature plants, shrubs and trees are watered.
The first part of the property is the rental side, flexible accommodation is offered here, either rented in full or in separate units. A stone wall separates the terraces from the rental.

The first bedroom is a bright living/dining room, with wood burning stove, sofas and windows that overlook the panoramic views. An original 400-year-old shuttered window frames the view. From here, there is the kitchen with a central island, double marble sink and custom floor to ceiling furniture, kitchen and extractor hood. A door leads to a laundry room and bathroom next door. The hallway opens into the spacious living room with original Inglenook fireplace with wood burning stove, behind is the original bread oven.

Arched patio doors lead out into an exquisite courtyard with Andalusian garden, accented in "Majorelle blue". With a central water fountain, with integrated seating area, a haven of peace. A large room used as a creative studio overlooks the inner courtyard and has been the site of many retreats organized in the lodge. The space is bright, relaxed and allows plenty of light to flood the area.

Two more double bedrooms, one with bathroom en suite and a family bathroom.
