At the back of the property, fringed by a hedge, is the lusciously green, meditation zone, focused around an eco pond. A naturally evolving oasis, mostly obscured by lily pods, it spawns frogs, toads, fish, newts, lizards and water snakes (they don’t stray!). Submit to its beauty and reach nirvana. I could meditate for hours in this magical spot.

Separated by a driveway, and also fringed by a hedge, a large children’s adventure park perfects the family experience. Liberally equipped with a slide, climbing frame, swings, a bouncy horse and various other playthings, this area was specifically designed to stimulate your children’s imagination for hours on end!

The meditation zone and the children’s adventure park are FOR YOUR EXCLUSIVE USE!

The owners tend to the pool and grounds at times to suit you, usually very early in the morning. You need never see them unless you want to.

The huge car park IS FOR YOUR EXCLUSIVE USE. Except if a Comune inspector visits to check the monument and/or the organic plantations that surround this property. Last year, two such inspections took place.

The owners have their own private parking spaces at the back of their villa.

The owners do NOT use the pool, the grounds + gardens,, the meditation zone, the children’s adventure park or the car park when guests are residing in SPELLO BY THE POOL.
