Message From The Seller

“Having owned this property for over 25 years, we, our family, and friends have enjoyed many holidays and short breaks at La Mondrie. A south facing property with unbroken views of the surrounding countryside, the summer is all about outside living, whilst the autumn and winter is an opportunity to cosy up and enjoy a glass or two of red in front of the woodburner”.
