Welcoming and Comfortable
Very welcoming host who was always available for help or advice if needed, but left us to enjoy the property by ourselves. The kitchen is really well supplied! Several reviews mention this, and it’s true. Also plenty of plates, glasses and cutlery which isn’t always the case. Very clean and comfortable. Excellent facilities. Locally, we probably weren’t very adventurous with restaurants etc, but we did use the excellent nearby tram service into Orléans. It’s affordable and runs every 20 mins. Saved us the hassle of using the car. Nice quiet neighbourhood, lovely pool. A very relaxing holiday.

Perfect week in beautiful cottage
We had the most amazing week in this stunning cottage. Frederique and her family were amazing and very helpful when we though we ran into trouble.
Our dog made friends with Nestor and it was pleasure to watch them play in the garden.
Lovely woods at the back of the house and town easy accessible by tram so no need to drive.
Thank you for everything

Charm and hospitality in a relaxing environment
Charming and full of authentic character, Le Pot Vert captures the experience of a cozy cottage with views of nature set in beautiful, well-tended grounds. Since we visited for a week in February, our family of three spent much time indoors, finding the space very comfortable and accommodating. I especially liked the adorable French country kitchen with its pretty views (still a center of activity for us during the pandemic) and the fireplace that kept us warm.
Others have already commented on the generous provisions that Frédérique provides. This is all true but I don’t think it captures the amount of thought and detail she has considered in creating as welcoming a stay as possible. After briefly showing us the house, we were left to relax and feel at home, discovering croissants and other baked goods from her favorite local bakery; a pantry and refrigerator stocked with quality produce and ample ingredients for a few simple meals. This cottage and its furnishing are immaculately maintained and presented.
Together with all this, we enjoyed much privacy during our stay, although we knew that Frédérique was available if necessary to answer any questions that would arise. Living in Paris, we stayed for a week of our daughter’s school break, and found the WiFi to be reliable for work. We drove to Orleans a few times and regularly walked and cycled at the nearby forest. We particularly enjoyed DaVinci’s home, Château du Clos Lucé, near Amboise, about an hour away.
Thank you, Frédérique, for all your efforts!

Lovely cottage
Le Pot Vert is a lovely cottage about 60 miles from Paris, very near to Orleans. Our hosts provided a fridge full of foods, in addition to spirits, wines, coffee, tea, croissants and breads from a local bakery. There is a very nice pool and relaxation area, but we were there in October 2016, so it was too cool to swim. The grounds of their property were very beautiful. Would love to see them in the spring when everything is in bloom!
They also had a book with directions for everything in the cottage and suggestions of places to eat and visit. Lots of maps are also available.
There are several nice restaurants in the area, but you will need to drive to them.
We would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a VRBO outside of Paris.
