Accueil très chaleureux

Nous avons reçu un accueil particulièrement chaleureux de la part de Jim. Notre dîner (et même plus !) nous attendait dans le frigo. Sinon, la maison - très bien située au coeur de Saint Germain l'Herm et face à une épicerie au top - est restée dans son "jus" d'il y a quelques dizaines d'années... Le petit jardin est très sympa ! En résumé, si vous aimez l'authenticité, vous êtes au bon endroit !
