Functional and spacious, it allows everyone to enjoy a quiet space or share moments together. Relaxing moments can be spent both indoors and outdoors in the landscaped garden.

But above all, did you know that the sky in Mayenne can be magnificent? Philippe, the owner, is passionate about astronomy and has built his own private observatory! So, come and admire the celestial vault under the observatory's dome with him for an evening of stargazing or astrophotography (optional).

Excellent séjour

Excellent séjour, hôtes prévenants, gîte confortable, pratique et agréable à vivre. Dans un coin de Mayenne reposant, sous un ciel infini entrevu depuis l'observatoire grâce à l'expertise du pêcheur d'étoiles. A recommander.
