Nous avons passé un agréable séjour dans cette belle, grande et fonctionnelle maison. Le jardin est beau et décoré avec goût. La région est magnifique et l'accès aux différents sites facilité par le train à 2 pas et la voiture mise à disposition Nos hôtes ont été adorables et ont pris bien soin de notre vieux chat. Nous avons retrouvé notre maison très propre en accord parfait avec nos attentes.
