Pleasant stay, lovely hosts and nice pool

We had a very warm welcome and the hosts were very nice and helpful. It's an old wine farm which has been renovated and the 2 bedrooms are well decorated. We had "Les Anges" bedroom which was clean and spacious. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was quite small but ok for what we had to do and the towels supplied were very good quality. Soap was supplied, no shampoo you need to bring your own. During our stay the outside temperature was over 35C and inside the room it was very hot too but the hosts installed us a small a/c which helped a lot. The room had it's own toilet and a small LCD TV. There was a big and beautiful garden with a private parking area, place for kids with a trampoline and swings and a petanque court. The swimming-pool was great, water was at 29C and we really enjoyed it. The best part of our stay was the breakfast which was EXCELLENT! With this hot weather, a small fridge inside the room to store fresh drinks would be great. At 10 minutes by car there is the Zoo of Beauval and good small restaurants (you will get a list at your arrival).

Les propriétaires sont des personnes très charmantes et très disponibles. Un accueil très chaleureux. Maison très agréable et très calme. Le petit déjeuner est copieux avec des produits locaux ou fait maison. Mes deux enfants (9 ans et 11 ans) sont ravis de ce choix, ils avaient du mal à quitter les lieux. Les propriétaires ne sont pas avares de vous donner des conseils pour découvrir de bons endroits pour visiter ou pour dîner. Anaëlle 11 ans, Lucas 9 ans et le papa Jean-Philippe vous remercie pour l’agréable séjour

Satisfaction maximum et excellent acceuil

Excellent acceuil. On sent des hôtes qui aiment recevoir son prochain. Cadre charmant et chambres propres et bien décorées. Les literies sont très agréable. Et gros plus : un petit déjeuner de luxe avec des produits frais locaux. Je recommande vivement en particulier si il s'agit d'un séjour au zoo de Beauval à 10 min en voiture à peine.
