“Très bon séjour chez Marie et Michel. Tout y est pensé pour se sentir chez soi. Un coin de verdure proche de la ville avec un accueil chaleureux. Sans compter le petit déjeuner fait maison, copieux et gourmand.”

“Great place to stay. French breakfast with croissant, baguette, home cream, coffee, jam, juice served here. Very neat and clean bedroom and bathroom. 94 euros paid for a family of 2 adults & two kids of 7 & 12 for one night including breakfast. Price inclusive of city taxes for 2 adults. Booked through booking.com. Direct booking of property saves 6 plus euros.”
