About the home

Croquignolet is cute and cosy. It is ideally suited as a romantic getaway for a busy couple who need to have time to relax and unwind. In the evenings, the cottage lends itself to lounging in front of the fire in the winter, or eating out on the patio and catching the evening sun in the summer.
Being on the edge of the village, the centre of Seglien is only a pleasant 3 minute stroll away, ideal for wandering up to get your french baguette and croisant each morning.
The cottage kitchen is well equipped, providing everything needed for a comfortable stay.

The countryside is stunning and feel totally relaxed after a wonderful holiday.” Eddy and Cathy - 23rd July – 6th August 2011

“A lovely comfortable cottage and quite rural, just what we wanted.” – Ann Thomas, Fern Down
