The swimming pool
The swimming pool (12 x 6 meters) is located in the grounds close to the Chateau with a woodland backdrop and comments in the guest book indicate that many pleasant hours are enjoyed in this little 'niche' at Mont Felix. It is fenced in compliance with French safety laws, for the security of children, although parents should always remain vigilent.
The Pool faces South and has sunshine throughout the day, with extensive views overlooking the front lawn and the village of St. Jean. A small timber chalet provides room for changing and it is equipped with a solar powered shower. Poolside furniture includes sun loungers for relaxation, and a gas barbecue caters for al fresco dining.
The pool water is treated by a natural method; no chemicals are added. 3 steps lead into the shallow area of the pool, for young children or less able swimmers, and what a wonderful place for them to learn and gain confidence!

The 5 double and twin-bedded bedrooms have modern en-suites. Two of the bedrooms have single rooms adjoining, making a total of 7. Each bedroom has an individual style in keeping with the house - spacious and comfortable.
