There are a series of shallow pools in between the cascades which you can explore and which are a great success with children.
THE COTTAGE (sleeps 4) nestles in the side of a south facing hill, with large doors and windows opening east and west onto a grassy garden with mulberry and fig trees (east) and two walled, sunny courtyards with flowering shrubs and herbs (west). The Cottage was the original dwelling for the property, built in the seventeenth century; the main part of the olive mill (including the present Tower House), with its impressive presses (still in place) and walls 5 feet thick, was then added on to the southern wall of the Cottage in the eighteenth century.
* The Ground Floor has a sitting room prettily furnished in Provençale style with exposed beams, Provençale furniture and satellite tv, cd & tape player. The adjoining dining room with open plan kitchen leads onto a small courtyard with barbeque, table and chairs. The dining room has a mix of antique Provençale and good quality modern furniture. The kitchen is well equipped with large refrigerator, Bosch electric hob and oven, micro wave oven, washing machine, Siemens dishwashing machine, toaster, kettle, etc.

The twin bedroom is accessed via steep stairs which require supervision for young children. A stairgate is provided. Fans in each bedroom(rarely necessary because of the extra thick stone walls).
