Pretty much exactly as advertised. Gorgeous! Suzaan was very easy to communicate with and did her best to make our stay exactly what we anticipated; a wonderful family gathering involving swimming, tennis, cooking, cooking, cooking. Too much eating, outside, surrounded by beautiful gardens and miles of wheat, corn, barely and bean fields. The local markets gave us a good insight into the workings of this agricultural land. Virtually no English spoken there which is to our liking.
This is an old, funky farm house in an agricultural district with no tourists in sight. During our 10 day visit with various family coming and going, we had a running joke that the modern conveniences "half worked." No matter for us. Albert and Genevieve, two neighbors who help caretake the property were around to guide us through and even stop by for a coffee with the dog. There are no screens on the windows, which is typical for rural France; typical for most of Europe. If you are afraid of bugs and want all the creature comforts of home this is not the place for you. It is also a little musty, and cool inside. The pool is great, the tennis court is beautiful, if old (it could use a new net and if you are serious about tennis bring your own racquet and balls), the kitchen is more than good enough for more than two cooks at once. Everyone loved it. If Provence isn't your thing, or in your price range, an experience here might be just the ticket.
