Following the easing of the lockdown here in France we have great
pleasure to announce the opening of “REIDS RETREAT” for 2020 on the 1st

this date we will be on site if you require anything but leave you on
your own to enjoy your holiday & as our Gite is exclusively for your

We recommend you check with your countries rules of travel before booking.

We invite you to come and stay for a taste of French life here in your own
