Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour en famille au gîte de l’Epicerie de la Madeleine.La maison est très jolie et pleine de charme et surtout elle reste fraîche même en cas de forte chaleur.Tout est fonctionnel et pratique, nous avons très vite trouvé nos marques. Les enfants ont bien profité également des jeux et livres mis à disposition. Pour finir, le préau et le jardin sont vraiment un l’ atout de cette maison. Nous avons pris tous nos repas à l’ombre à l’extérieur et les enfants et notre chien ont bien couru dans le jardin !Les échanges avec Raymond et Jacqueline ont été rapides et efficaces !Vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés !
