Nous avons passé un excellent grand week end en famille chez Laura ! La maison est grande, les chambres spacieuses et disposent toutes d'une salle de bain, tout était très propre et décoré avec soin. Laura est disponible et très sympathique, aux petits soins avec ses hôtes et vraiment arrangeante. Un grand merci, encore une fois !

Excellent pour un week-end de farniente / jeux entre amis ou en famille avec des ados

Nous avons passé le week-end avec une bande d'amis, tout est là pour passer un bon moment avec beaucoup d'espace et d'activités possibles, à l'intérieur comme à l'extérieur. Côté cuisine tout est là avec plusieurs frigos et de l'équipement, les chambres sont géniales et très bien équipées. Le jardin est sublime, la propriétaire est adorable et toujours disponible. La maison n'est pas complètement isolée du monde donc il faudra composer avec le voisinage si vous souhaitez faire BEAUCOUP de bruit à l'extérieur, mais rien n'empêche de pousser les enceintes à fond dans le grand salon. Nous recommandons tous vivement.

Séjour au calme mais plein d'activités sur place

Nous cherchions un endroit calme au milieu de la nature et nous avons vraiment apprécié ce lieu. On y trouve toutes sortes d'activités : piscine, ping pong, badminton, sauna, jaccuzzi... Pas besoin de sortir tout est sur place. Accueil chaleureux et personne vraiment serviable et souriante. En plus nous sommes venus avec notre chien et tout a été fait pour nous garantir qu'il ne puisse pas se sauver. Un grand merci.

Super WE entre amies

Nous avons passé un excellent weekend entre amies dans le gîte. L'accueil était excellent, et nous avons pu profiter du sauna et du jacuzzi malgré le temps maussade. Merci pour cet accueil, et au plaisir de loger à nouveau chez vous. Lucile

Multi family holiday

A charming characterful house with amazing outdoor facilities. We had a fabulous fortnight. The house is big with plenty of space for our 3 family groups, and has a fantastic covered veranda to keep out of the midday sun. We especially enjoyed the pool, sauna, hot tub, table tennis and volleyball net. Laura is a friendly host, on hand if you need her. Would 100% recommend.

Vacances famille

Très belle maison de vacances, avec tous les équipements à disposition. La maison a été réservée pour un anniversaire mais il faut faire le silence après 22h, dommage de plus qu’il y avait une sonorisation pour faire la fête et que la propriétaire avait été prévenue, écoulement bouché dans une salle de bain et pas de solution avant notre départ, je recommande malgré tout pour le calme, le nombre de chambres, la piscine et le jacuzzi !

Très jolie villa !

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour avec mes amis qui étaient là pour fêter mon anniversaire! La villa a permis a chacun d'avoir son intimité et l'extérieur comme l'intérieur est parfait pour passer un moment en groupe !
