| Domaine La Castagne has four comfortable, well-equipped gîtes for self-catering holidays. All the accommodation and facilities are perfect for adults and children alike. Cots, highchairs and baby baths are available for young families - and there are plenty of toys for the under-fives in the Play Barn. |  | ![A lovely place for a holiday [click to enlarge] A lovely place for a holiday [click to enlarge]](http://www.domaine-la-castagne.com/sites/letsites/clients/montmaur/photos/montmaur_004_.jpg) |
