Wonderful gite
A fantastic place to spend time with family and friends. The house is beautiful, spacious and comfortable. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to make dinner for a large group, the best equipped we've ever had! The bedrooms are beautifully decorated and the beds very comfortable. The garden is delightful with beautiful plants and plenty of garden furniture- a special place to enjoy the peace and quiet. Didier and Anne are lovely, welcoming hosts, who speak excellent English. The local area is very pretty and there are plenty of things to do and see within a short drive. I throughly recommend a visit and we will definitely return! Thank you Anne and Didier for your hospitality and kindness- we really enjoyed our two weeks stay in your beautiful gîte!

Great stay
Everything was perfect from start to finish. The cottage is superb and warm, you could feel at home. There really is everything you need. The bedding is excellent and the shower room/WC in 4 of the 5 bedrooms is a real asset. It is very quiet and well located. We liked the area and there is a lot to visit. Thank you to the owners for welcoming us so well, for being discreet but present when necessary. Do not hesitate, this place is worth the detour.

Many thanks to Didier for his warm welcome. Didier is an available and caring host for his customers, concerned about every detail.

A pleasant residence, ideal for large families. We spent a very pleasant week with hosts always there to help us if needed.And thank you again for the chamber pot to wake up the newlyweds.

The bedding is of very good quality and the rooms are spacious, no complaints about the cleanliness and functionality of the premises.We particularly enjoyed the spa, the petanque court and the large quiet garden, with plenty of space for the children! We will return with great pleasure to this little corner of paradise!
