The heated above ground pool is made of teak to fit in with the surroundings in the orchard; it is 6x4 metres and 1.5 metres deep and is open from May - September. The gardens are the ideal place to relax by the pool, have a picnic under a tree, or just sit and read a good book while sipping a glass a wine. There is a 14ft trampoline with safety nets, badminton, swings, boules pit, swing ball, football net, and basketball in the gardens, along with numerous games. In the covered veranda area there is table soccer, table tennis and a darts board and lots of other toys. The gardens are large and safe enough for children to play, whilst we consider our accommodation to be child friendly, good parental supervision should be shown at all times.

Just down the lane there is an 18 km Patrimoine walk through lovely countryside.  La Basse Rouerie is located in a small village called Mellé, which is situated on the Brittany/ Normandy borders. Here you can spend days on the magnificent beaches known as the Emerald coast, visit walled towns or just walk through the lovely countryside, something for everyone. We are about an hours drive from the port of St Malo; this is also an excellent place to visit, with a walled town and miles of sandy beaches. Also within an hours drive you have the large towns of Rennes, Dinan, Domfront and Mortain all worthy of a visit. Half an hour's drive will take you to the walled town of Fougeres with its chateau, and sandy beach in the forest.
