NO HIDDEN CHARGES
Maison Borges - simply beautiful

"We had a great time. Though you did not see much of us, we certainly saw the area of France that you live (in)!!! You have super accommodation and facilities and we'll certainly pass on details to friends. Kindest regards"
 - Dugald and Jean (nr Dundee)

The last thing you need when you set out on vacation is to carry your own linen onto the plane; or head home with a sack of less than fresh bedding wedged under foot. 

The master bedroom of the Longhouse

Visions of frontier crossings clogged with migrating sacks of soiled linen. 



Your self-catering holiday at Maison Borges is in a furnished house, a fully furnished house. Including the loan of a clean set of bed linen and the bath towels, if you request them. Including the clothes washing machine, dishwasher, the dishes, glasses, cutlery, cooking utensils, and, yes, especially fosse septique friendly toilet paper. 

Winter logs delivered by solar utility vehicle There are no hidden charges in renting a house or a cottage, here. No metered electricity. No heating charges - no extra charge for the logs. And we don't find that our visitors are wantonly profligate in their consumption.  

We have a number of bicycles of assorted sizes and shapes available which our visitors are free to use on a first-come first-serve self-maintenance basis - gratis.

There is no set extra charge for cleaning if you clean up after yourselves. You are renting a "real" house to make your home during your vacation, and you are booking for a self-catering holiday. Everyone knows that means you leave the place as clean and orderly as you found it. You certainly don't need to be charged extra for the 'privilege'.

[In the category of "Well, having said that": Since this was published on the web, we have had three visiting parties who really did not want their holiday to end. They asked, could we please book someone to do the thorough clean up after their tidy up, instead of their losing precious "pool time" by doing it all themselves. Happily, we were able to arrange it. The cleaner's fee was Euros 50 - and she was available. With a little notice, we can arrange the same for you.]  

Fresh vegetables in the kitchen
And, when possible we offer you whatever fresh fruits and vegetables our "potager", vegetable garden, and orchard can provide.

We look forward to meeting you here, but, however you settle your vacation plans, we wish you a very happy holiday.
