Send the kids upstairs — you won’t hear from them for hours. 😉 🛏️ Sleep with character There are four bedrooms, each with box-spring beds, air conditioning, and views of the garden or the village. All beds are freshly made on arrival, so your holiday can start the moment you walk in. 🛁 Two bathrooms, four toilets The master bedroom has its own en-suite with bathtub, washbasin, and toilet. A second bathroom on the landing offers a double shower, and the house has four toilets in total. 🌳 Outdoor living — like a French painting come to life The house is surrounded by a 1,000 m² garden filled with mature trees and tall box hedges, where silence feels almost tangible. In summer, enjoy long dinners on the covered terrace, with a dining area, a cosy outdoor lounge, and warm ambient lighting. At night, the garden turns into a little fairy-tale scene, illuminated by thousands of tiny lights. There’s a built-in stone barbecue – perfect for long evenings of cooking, eating, and laughing with friends under the stars. And for a refreshing dip, there’s the plunge pool (4.50 × 1.10 m) – small, cool, and often everyone’s favourite spot. 🥾 Walking and exploring The surroundings are a paradise for walkers and nature lovers. From the house you can set out directly into the rolling hills, through meadows, forests, and tiny villages where life is still simple and pure. 💡 Why guests love Ancienne École Authentic charm with modern comfort 80 m² living room + 100 m² entertainment loft Air conditioning in all bedrooms Fast fibre-optic Wi-Fi and Apple TV Large covered terrace, beautifully lit garden, and plunge pool Untouched nature and absolute peace Ancienne École Troche A place to relax, slow down, and feel the real France where history and modern comfort blend effortlessly. **Séjour longue durée en France – du 23 janvier au 3 avril 2027** Vous souhaitez profiter pendant dix semaines de la tranquillité de la vie dans un village français ? **Long stay in France – 23 January to 3 April 2027** Would you like to enjoy ten weeks of peaceful French village life?
