Gîte Le Vieux Café: your dog is welcome here

To accommodate your dog, we provide you with a box of dog toys to use during your stay.

We also have poop bags, a water bowl and towels.

We have a few rules that we expect customers to follow:

1. We provide outdoor bins and plastic bags for your dog's droppings.

2. We prefer that the dog is not left alone in the gite. To prevent him from getting bored and making mistakes, avoid leaving him alone.

3. We invite you to use the equipment and household products available to leave the place clean before your departure

4. Dogs are allowed to sit on the leather sofas provided they put a blanket

5. Beds are for owners, not dogs

6. Please note that we live on site and have cats, so if your dogs don't like cats, be careful!

7. The gite is located in the countryside so there will be wild birds, cattle, horses and other wildlife – plus hunters at certain times of the year.

We also welcome you to our other gite “L'écurie” with your doggie.
