Natur pur
Die Lage und Umgebung des Hauses in sehr schöner Natur sind wunderbar und bestens geeignet, Ruhe und Erholung zu finden. Die Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich.
Die Ausstattung des Hauses lies keine Wünsche offen. Leider war es um die Sauberkeit nicht so gut bestellt.

WE familial aux portes des bois
cadre très calme et reposant, idéal pour un WE familial, et pour les balades en forêt ou dans la région.
Très bon accueil; gîte joli, très bien équipé, avec un minimum de produits pour l'arrivée des hôtes, ce qui est très agréable.
Le centre équestre proche ne gêne pas du tout , et permet de s'inscrire éventuellement pour un cours. Jardin bien clos pour les petits. Nous avons passé un bon WE, merci! Brigitte
