Your host : Pierrette and Rudy HOLIERHOEK: For 12 years we have been welcoming vacationers or workers in our old house. This gîte is part of a set of 3 buildings which were built in 1937. The first use of these places was as a municipal slaughterhouse. Closed in 1974, it was used for nearly 25 years by the town hall of Hérisson for rental purposes. In 1999 we bought this place and brought it back to life. We first renovated the old caretaker's house where we lived for almost 10 years (current gite), then we renovated the stables (current main house). Rudy, gardener by profession, is passionate about "plants". He plants, prunes, cuts, maintains these different gardens. Pierrette, professor and librarian, arranges the interiors, recovers furniture and brings these houses to life. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,076 square feet ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/107000000/106220000/106219500/106219500/07d9dc3c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Small rural and charming house in a quiet hamlet.
