Family Gite near beautiful lake

Great location for access to Saint Mathieu and the lake. Good sized bedrooms, plenty of decent crockery, etc. No frills but adequately met our needs. As we were only a couple we were paying a premium, better value for a family. Gardens surrounded the property with plenty of choice of seating, weather permitting.

Séjour très agréable et reposant, à l'ombre des arbres

Nous avons passé un agréable séjour. Bien que la cuisine soit peu pratique car petite, il ne manquait rien, et nous avons apprécié les nombreux équipement mis à disposition. Le terrain arboré est très agréable, avec ses différents espaces à l'ombre ou au soleil, selon les envies. Nous avons pu déjeuner et dîner dehors, sur la terrasse ou sur l'arrière du terrain, à l'ombre du grand chêne. Très beau mobilier de jardin complet, qui nous a permis de merveilleusement bien profiter de l'extérieur, au calme et très agréable. De plus, le jardin entièrement clos a permis à ma petite chienne de profiter du jardin. Nous recommandons cette maison, et remercions les propriétaires.

Résidence agréable et bien situé pour des sorties en famille.

LOCATION dont le point fort se situe principalement à l'extérieur (terrain, terrasses et pelouse ++) alors que l'intérieur est correct mais pour moi "à rafraichir" (et "petite" cuisine")

Klein huisje op afgesloten grond

Super vakantie, behalve was er geen bereik van internet, omdat we de streek al kennen hadden we vooraf gekeken dat er wifi ter beschikking was bij het boeken. Blijkbaar heeft iedereen hem miskeken. Toch alles voorradig in huisje

Ruhe und Natur

wer das mag ist hier genau richtig. Wir konnten in dem schönen Garten wunderbar entspannen und das Haus blieb während der Hitzewellen schön kühl. Das Haus ist einfach und praktisch aber durchaus gemütlich eingerichtet. Man hat alles was man braucht. Wir haben uns wohl gefühlt.

Jolie petite maison de campagne avec grand jardin et accessoires

Isolée sans l'être tout à fait (il y a deux ou trois maisons voisines), cette maison est parfaite pour une petite famille qui souhaite passer des vacances "au vert", à vélo, en voiture ou à pied. Les pistes de randonnées sont nombreuses et à proximité de la maison. Les commerces ne sont pas loin et ouverts le dimanche. De nombreux sites (notamment châteaux) et jolis villages sont à découvrir dans la région. un petit bémol, comme elle est souvent inoccupée, la maison sent "le renfermé" et la poussière.

Idylisch und einfach schön

Wer ein ruhiges, grünes und gepflegtes Örtchen sucht, ist hier richtig! Das süße kleine Häuschen beinhaltet alles was man braucht. Da wir mit 2 Kindern unterwegs waren, war auch die Waschmaschine sehr hilfreich. Ebenso gut genutzt haben wir den Garten zum Fußball oder Federball spielen. Ein Badesee ist auch ganz nah, allerdings ist dieser gerade nicht mit viel Wasser gesegnet und daher konnten wir ihn nicht nutzen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt!

Schöne Ferien im Limousin

Wir haben schöne Ferientage im Limousin verbracht. Die Gegend lädt zu vielen Unternehmungen ein, Wetter war fantastisch und 1 Woche Aufenthalt war zu kurz! Das Ferienhaus können wir empfehlen, da es ruhig gelegen, gemütlich und praktisch ausgestattet ist. Die Kinder haben Platz zum Toben. Auf der Terrasse kann man gut essen, Spiele spielen, in der Sonne liegen, Sterne beobachten...In diesem Haus und an diesem Platz kann man sich wirklich wohlfühlen.

Entspannung pur

Das Haus ist gemütlich eingerichtet und wirkt nicht wie ein Ferienhaus. Durch diie Bilder und Bücher fühlten wir uns wie zuhause . Wir hatten traumhaftes Wetter und konnten alle Außenplätze ausgiebig genießen, natürlich auch den nahegelegenen See. Auch die vorhandenen Lebensmittel entstressen den Urlaub, man muss nicht alles einkaufen und nicht alles aufessen. Wir hoffen, dass das weiter so funktioniert und waren bestimmt nicht zum letzten Mal hier.
