Le tournesol
The charming, historic gite “Le Tournesol” is located in the beautiful South of France, nestled between the green hills and sunflower fields. This gite sits on a small-scale and child-friendly holiday domain with three other holiday homes and the home of the owners. There is a beautiful heated swimming pool (10x5 meters) that all guests have access to. To one side of the domain there is a large forest where walking and cycling routes have been plotted. From the house you can walk to the village with a bakery.
The gîte is a fully furnished authentic holiday home for a maximum of 5 people and measures 80 m2. You will experience the real French feeling here. The living room and kitchen windows offer a beautiful view over the village. The house consists of 2 floors, has 2 bedrooms and a bathroom with toilet. The integrated kitchen is equipped with all modern conveniences. The master bedroom has a double bed measuring 160 cm by 200 cm. The children's bedroom has a bunk bed (80x200cm) and a single bed (80x200cm). The gite is very suitable for couples as well as for a family with children.
Outside the gite there is a lovely large patio in the courtyard. In addition, there are several relaxation areas available on site. Of course there is also a private barbecue. The private swimming pool of 5 x 10 meters, which you share with the tenants of the other gîtes and owners, completes the holiday feeling.
High chairs and baby cots are available on request and are available free of charge. For the children (and adults too, of course) there is a trampoline, playground and there is a table tennis table set up next to the swimming pool.
Next to the house there is a laundry room with washing machine, to which you will have full access. There is also room to store bicycles. The Wi-Fi is free.

REVIEWS LE TOURNESOL
B. and M. K. from Arnhem - Rental date September 3, 2022 - A*
Perfect location to relax with small children. The cottages are fully equipped and very clean. The kitchen is well equipped. Children can play on the trampoline, in the sandbox, the climbing frame with slide and swing (which can be seen from the pool). The well-fenced swimming pool should of course not be forgotten. The garden is very atmospheric because of the many cozy sitting and hanging spots. Bakker is a 2-minute walk away. Rommie and Martijn's hospitality makes you feel right at home. The pizza evening where children can make their own pizza is highly recommended! In short, highly recommended for families with children

What a wonderful place to spend a holiday. It is a celebration because everything has been thought of. Cottages complete, grounds clean and pool great for relaxing. We were there as a family and had several cottages that week, there was something for everyone. Enough space on the domaine. And if your child likes fishing, this is an extra nice touch. Downstairs an ideal fishing spot. In short: a must to spend your holiday time with the cozy family in Touffailles.

We had the best 2 weeks holiday at Le Petit Domaine. The location is just perfect, on top of a hill with walking trails on the doorstep and a bakery walking distance away in the village. The area is stunning with sunflower fields and cute historic villages in abundance. But there is enough to do at the Domaine too, like relaxing at the pool and lying in a hammock. To top it all off: Rommie and Martijn are the best hosts, making sure we had all we needed to make our first holiday with 4 month old baby unforgettable. Don’t miss out on Martijn’s cooking, incl pizza’s!!!! We will definitely be back!
J. and G. L. from Ichtegem, Belgium - Juin 25, 2022 - A*
We enjoyed a wonderful week at Le Petit Domain de Touffailles. Our 3 kids (5m, 2 and 4y) also had a great time with tom, Ties and Emma and all the toys (trampoline, sandbox, swing ...). We have not done many towns (not so handy with 3 small children), but there is a wide range in the area. The cottage was in tip-top shape (even dishwashing cubes and sponges were provided). The washing machine was also a big plus for us, so we could wash bibs in between. Be sure to join the table on pizza night. Martijn makes very tasty pizzas in the wood oven. Very pleasant evening. We will definitely come back.
W. et M. from Amsterdam - October 16, 2021 - A*
Le petit domaine is located in a paradisiacal spot, between lovely hills in the middle of beautiful, mostly medieval towns. The cottages are comfortable and tastefully decorated and even at the end of October it was still lovely to sit in the garden. An ideal place to spend a holiday like God in France with family or friends!

Look no further....book! How we enjoyed it! A week was really short. This hideaway is great with lots of cozy corners and seats and a great pool. The cottage has been furnished with great taste and love and fortunately has retained its authenticity. The environment is great, really one of the nicer regions in France where there is something for everyone. Rommie and Martijn are happy to help you with tips. In short, a place to return to for sure.

Together with our 2 children aged 7 and 10, we had a very nice holiday at this place. Our children have played with those of the owners all the time on the trampoline, in the lovely swimming pool, at the kicker table, etc... The cottage is beautifully decorated and has retained its authenticity! All kitchen utensils are provided! The owners are also a great asset of this domain, they are very hospitable where you can always go for tips in the area and also show interest in the trips of the other guests. Finally, they also give you enough privacy. The region is definitely recommended, there are plenty of beautiful towns in the area and there are plenty of water fun opportunities. What we especially appreciated is that it was nowhere a surprise, especially compared to the Dordogne.
Family B. from G. - August 31, 2021 - A*
What a lovely place! We were received very hospitably, the cottage is fully equipped and the swimming pool is very nice. The table tennis table has been used extensively. If we had any questions, we were immediately helped. In short: highly recommended!
R. and S. from B. - July 24, 2021 - A*
What a wonderfully relaxing holiday we had with our daughters aged 7 and 9 on the atmospheric domaine. The hospitality, authentic atmosphere, comfort (a perfectly equipped kitchen, wonderful beds!), game and play facilities, the beautiful swimming pool and the picturesque surroundings have ensured an unforgettable holiday. Superlatives shortage! We will definitely come back!
R. and A. from B. - July 10, 2021 - A*
What a fantastic holiday! We enjoyed a lot with our children (11, 9 and 6 years old). The area is beautiful with beautiful sunflower fields and cute villages with beautiful authentic houses. And then the house .... fully equipped. More luxurious than we are used to. Lovely beds, all the kitchen utensils you can think of (such as an immersion blender) and even a dishwasher. The bathroom will be replaced soon, but was already fine. Good shower spray, which we always like. The whole 'petit domaine' exudes relaxation. With many cozy corners, hammocks, campfire, play equipment for the children (okay, we also played fanatically ...) and of course the lovely swimming pool which is large and deep enough to swim some lengths. Our children played outside all the time, together with the three children of Rommie and Martijn and with the children of other guests. Rommie and Martijn clearly enjoy making sure the holes can enjoy themselves. We can't really think of any negatives or tips. In short, a wonderful relaxing holiday and highly recommended!
