Ein wunderbares und perfekt ausgestattetes Objekt mit traumhaftem Garten. Wir fühlten uns bei Helyett und Yannick mehr als Freunde, denn als zahlende Gäste. Eine solche Gastfreundschaft haben wir in einer Fewo noch nicht erlebt. Der Tisch stand für ubs gedeckt bereit, als wir ankamen, mit Baguette und Rotwein. Der Kühlschrank mit Getränken gut bestückt. Sonntags lag für uns das Frühstücksgebäck vor dem Haus bereit. Das hat das weniger gute Wetter mehr als aufgewogen. Danke, Helyett und Yannick!

Très bon séjour
Nous avons passé une très bonne semaine dans la villa rose, malgré un temps mitigé. La maison est très agréable avec son jardin et ses terrasses. Le quartier est très calme et les hôtes sont charmants, disponibles et très prévenants. Le petit plus du séjour les viennoiseries le 1er jour et le dernier jour apporter par Mr Eyquem. Nous recommandons...
