Delightful and welcoming hosts , who invited us for drinks proertworks well and us well decorated
The only compromise is the small toilet and shower room which is in the bedroom, making privacy difficult. A washing machine would be welcome however Simon and Martina kindly let us use their machine. Overall a good stay and happy to recommend this accomodation

Excellent sejour!
Joli gite, agréable, décoré avec gout par la propriétaire. Propreté irréprochable.La salle de bain est petite mais fonctionnelle et cosy. Le jardin , un peu en retrait, est très bien aménagé avec une cuisine d'été. Simon et Martina ont été très accueillants et à notre écoute durant les 2 semaines de notre séjour. La région est riche en découvertes, randonnées, châteaux.. Possibilité de laveries à coté des supermarchés, à 15mns de la maison. Nous recommandons cette location, idéale pour un couple.

Nice clean house, perfect garden. Very well equiped kitchen + extra grill and basic equipment in the garden. Perfect bed, good bathroom (the shower!). All furnishing is there and in perfect condition (which is rarely). But most of all: the region: a picturesque village, beautyfull scenery. Plenty possibility of hiking in the immediate surroundings. Not to mention all the other attractions Simon and Martina will inform you with pleasure. They are very hospitable and helpfull.
