Wonderful place!

We spent one night here before heading to the nearby Centre Parcs. Such a lovely and peaceful place to stay. We listened to the birds and sat and enjoyed the peace. The cottage was immaculate and had everything we needed. My boys loved it there and really want to return!

Lovely renovation, comfortable stay

Stayed overnight on the way to skiing. Very clean, comfy beds, great shower and a good night's sleep was had by all. We have a great welcome from the owners and the dogs too! Wished we had arrived earlier to take a walk around.

We had a wonderful stay in this fabulous home.The home was as described. It was very comfortable, spotlessly clean, with everything that we could possibly need. The owner was nearby but not intrusive - he was very friendly and kind and we were lucky enough to meet his lovely daughter, who has excellent English - such a help!The area was lovely too - we went on a lovely walk near the Lake. Thank you so much!

A functional gite in an interesting area, ideally situated for exploring the Chemin des Dames. However we found the windowless main room a bit cheerless, and the wifi signal was non-existent.

Logement tres propre, bien aménagé et conforme à nos attentes. Le lieu et paisible ( chant des oiseaux, air de campagne). Les enfants on eu chaud du côté mezzanine prévoir peut-être un ventilateur ou petite clim pour le haut quand il fait de forte chaleur. Mais ce nai qu un conseil sinon le reste était parfait merci.

Haus mit Charme

Das Haus hat sehr viel Charme und ist modern und stimmig ausgebaut. Der Vermieter Ludewic hat uns sehr nett empfangen. Er züchtet nicht nur Tauben , sondern hält auch auf dem angrenzenden Grundstück jede Menge weiteres Federvieh. Es hat uns viel Freude gemacht, die beiden lieben Hunde beim "Aufpassen" auf das Geflügel zu beobachten. Wir haben hier sehr entspannte Tage verlebt.

Bien que témoins d'un massacre ( bataille du chemin des dames) , les paysages sont superbes, très bien respecté , un plaisir de se promener, dans le calme, en ces lieux où après tant de dévastation, un sentiment de paix prédomine.
