Ideal base for large group of friends or family. All bedrooms ensuite (always hot water), lovely lounge with roaring fire for a chilly November. Great base for exploring this area of France. Good transport links to explore further afield.

We had a really nice and relaxing week at Rochefort. Our hosts were really nice and welcoming. Especially the great living room upstairs was beautiful and we spent many evenings there all together.

This is a very nice property with lots of history. Mrs Roy was on-site to assist us with our arrival. The property offers complete rest in a peaceful location. It is equipped with books, board games and an indoor play barn complete with table tennis. The property is completely enclosed and the nearest road is over 400m away so it is safe for young children to run around. The friendly donkeys on site are a big attraction for the young (and old). We all (aged 4 - 71) enjoyed our stay and left completely refreshed

We all very much enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house. It was clean, peaceful and comfortable. The bedrooms were cool, even when the outside temperatures were high. There was also a lovely, large sitting room to spend time in, if the weather was not so good. The garden was beautiful and we ate most of our meals outside. Marie-Francoise was very helpful and gave us good recommendations for visits. We are still enjoying her rhubarb jam! Check-in and out were both very easy. The surrounding area was very interesting, with lots of places to visit. Highly reccomended!

We visited for one week with our daughter, son in law and their four children. The home is spacious with plenty of bedrooms and baths and a great room with fire place upstairs. The kitchen is well equipped and the outdoor space was great for the children. The resident donkeys were quite a hit!. The owner was gracious and very helpful. We did day trips and returned each evenings for a meal and family time. There is a Patisserie in the village an a Pizzeria too. Both of which we took advantage of. The location is quiet and lovely in a rural setting at the edge of a small village, but only a few mile from a major highways. Thank you Marie Francoise!

Wir haben mit unseren jungen erwachsenen Kindern eine herrliche Woche Frankreich im schönen Landhaus Rochefort verbracht. Tolles großes Haus mit vier Schlafzimmern mit jeweils eigenem Bad, einer geräumigen und gemütlichen Wohnküche und im Obergeschoss mit riesigem Aufenthaltsraum. Im wunderschön angelegtem kleinen Garten konnten wir herrlich entspannen. Die Tischtennisplatte in der Scheune hat uns auch bei schlechtem Wetter die gute Stimmung erhalten! Im Haus gibt es alles, was man braucht, nur für aufwendiges Kochen darf man keine vollständige Ausstattung erwarten. Ein Supermarkt sowie mehrere Bäckereien sind im Nachbarort zu finden. Berneuil-sur-Aisne ist ein toller Ausgangspunkt (mit dem Auto) für Fahrten in die schöne Umgebung. Besonders beeindruckt waren wir von der imposanten Burganlage in Pierrefonds (hier gibt es auch viel gute Gastronomie), aber natürlich sind auch Reims und Compiègne sehr sehenswerte Ausflugsziele. Wir kommen gerne wieder! Merci à Mme Roy et M. Anibal pour tout vos efforts, le gâteau fait à maison et les courgettes délicieuses du jardin!

This property is delightful. The garden was well kept and a wonderful place to relax. The property itself has real character and charm, particularly the upstairs living room. The bedrooms were spacious and each one had a comfortable en-suite bathroom. The donkeys and cat added to the charm of the property. We spent nearly two weeks here and enjoyed every minute. It is just over an hour away from Paris and about 20 minutes away from a range of activities and various villages so there is plenty to do. We had a wonderful time here and highly recommend it!

An interesting building with beautiful grounds. Peaceful with wonderful forests surrounding. Many places of interest to visit just an hour away by car. Easy to go by train to Paris from Compiègne- it takes less than an hour. Our host, Marie-Françoise was very friendly and ensured we had everything we needed. We spent 2 weeks at the property and had a wonderful holiday.

We had a wonderful week in little Berneuil-sur-Aisne. We had a late hiccough to our arrival, but Marie-Francoise was there to greet us and show us around despite the lateness of the hour. The house is really beautiful with all appliances that one could want. The children were entertained by the Donkeys, the table tennis table and the bikes. We played Petanque in the courtyard and had some memorable days out near Reims and in Pierrefonds. A great house in a lovely location - the only surprise was the industry on the Aisne river, but to be honest, this did not distract us from a wonderful holiday.

Nous avons passé un long week-end avec un couple d’amis et leurs enfants dans ce gîte très confortable. Un très bon accueil par Mme Roy et Annibal, de jolies attentions tout au long du séjour … le gîte est situé en lisière de forêt pour de belles balades, de nombreux jeux pour les enfants, bref on recommande !

Wir haben mit unseren erwachsenen Kindern und deren Freundinnen in diesem ungewöhnlichen Haus eine sehr schöne gemeinsame Zeit verbracht. Das charmante Haus hat allen unseren Bedürfnissen sehr gut genügt. Die große Wohnküche, in der wir zusammen gekocht haben, der riesige, kirchenähnliche Wohnraum, 4 Bäder, das alles hat sehr viel Entspannung gebracht. Draußen haben wir den kreuzgangähnlich angelegten Garten mit den Sitzgelegenheiten und die Tischtennisplatte im großen Schuppen (prima auch bei schlechterem Wetter) rege genutzt. In der Umgebung haben wir einiges Interessante entdeckt, Schlösser, Städte und kleine Dörfer und viele Erinnerungen an die französisch-deutsche Geschichte. Das Haus bietet dazu eine Vielzahl an Unterlagen. Wir bedanken uns sehr bei Madame für ihre große Gastfreundschaft und bei Monsieur Anibal, dem guten Geist des Hauses, für die immer sofortige Erfüllung unserer Wünsche. Nous remercions Madame pour sa merveilleuse hospitalité et les délicatesses et Monsieur Anibal, le bon esprit de la maison, pour s'occuper immédiatement de tous nos souhaits. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié nos vacances dans votre prioré.

We familial parfait dans cette belle maison de caractère. Nous avons été très bien accueillis par Annibal, l'endroit est chaleureux, bien chauffé (nous y étions en janvier), les lits faits, tout était prêt pour notre séjour. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié le calme et le dépaysement, et les nombreuses promenades autour de cette propriété. Ce we est passé trop vite, nous espérons revenir plus longuement une prochaine fois.

Prachtige locatie voor meer mensen. De omgeving is minder mooi. De fabriek dichtbij hoor en ruik je soms. De tuin en het bos zijn prachtig leuk voor een vrienden weekend

Agréable séjour, soleil limité mais nous avons réussi les repas à l'extérieur. Nous avons bien discutés avec Annibal , charmant qui prend soin de la propriété. Seul bémol, les lits trop petits , et pas assez de bac à glaçons.

Très bon week-end entre amis dans cette vielle maison à la décoration atypique, un mélange d’antiquité, de souvenir de voyage, d’objet chinés en brocante. Ce n’est pas là que vous trouverez du IKEA!;) Le séjour à l’etage est spacieux, et agréable et en hiver avec son poêle à bois.

Wir haben mit 3 Paaren 10 Tage dort verbracht!Bei Frost und schlechtem Wetter haben wir die Möglichkeit in der großen Küche zusammen zu kochen sehr genossen!Die Abende am Kaminofen (nach nötiger Anfeuerzeit) waren super gemütlich! Durch die vielen Lampen hatten wir eine heimelige Athmosphäre und konnten trotzdem lesen! Unsere feierliche Silvestertafel im Obergeschoss erinnerte an die in der Umgebung besichtigten Schlösser! Einzig die antiken Stühle waren für unsere kräftigen Männer eine kleine Herausforderung.
