In reply to paul_in_cumbria:
> Just an aside, but the last AirBnB rental we had in the forest near Milly la Forete had mats available as part of the let. If let owners start including mats and maybe a Beastmaker or two around the property, it would be a real bonus
http://thehouse.fr/ as linked above has a beastmaker, some weights and more Organic mats than you can shake a stick at.
Now all they need to do is put that massive barn to good use and put a woody (or 3, they've got the space!) and a circuit board in there. Then you'd have the perfect accommodation for a wet week in Font.
