The wrought iron superking sized double bed was made especially for us at the local forge and can be split into two single beds if desired - making it ideal for holidaying friends and children.

The modern en suite bathroom has a corner bath with an integral power shower. Completely new in 2008 it has teak flooring, white tiles and glass mosaics.

The bottom two floors of Le Foulon were originally storage for the farm, with the upper two floors housing the Maison d'Matre - the Master. They were converted to rooms, roughly the same layout as you see today, sometime after World War II. The back of the Alexi Room, including part of the bathroom, was previously the original boiler room or truly Titanic proportions. The oil-fired behemoth was about 4 metres long and over a metre wide and needed constant attention - a task that for over 20 years went to Alexi Haylofsky, the loyal handyman of indeterminate Eastern European birth.

Apparently a stern figure prone to staring, his ceaseless devotion kept Le Foulon in full working order and we salute his dedication by naming this room after him.
