Away from it all
We were looking for a more authentic and quiet experience in the countryside. This place fit the bill perfectly! Nestled in a tiny, centuries-old hamlet, the old, renovated farmhouse had all the comforts we needed and the peace and quiet we craved. With our daughter and our niece, we each had our own bedroom, which provided even more relaxation. The small pool was cold which discouraged the others but did not stop me. We went for short walks in the surrounding fields, watching the cows and the sheep. Lovely Mom Cat and her 2 two beautiful kittens (who were always around) had our number in no time and knew where to come for breakfast and dinner. We wanted to pack them in our bags! Our host, Laurent, was charming, easy-going and could not have been more helpful! The area is perfect for day trips to castles, gorgeous villages and charming markets - and then come home to perfect stillness and peace.
PS Don't expect the TV to provide entertainment, and do bring your own board games. But playing jeu de boules and badminton on the lawn was very cool. Btw: no internet (which was good and bad at the same time).
