Sous le charme..!

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié l'accueil d'Helen et de son mari, tout en délicatesse et sympathie. Le gite est parfaitement aménagé, meublé avec goût, tout est de qualité. La décoration est charmante, le jardin superbe, ainsi que la piscine, accueillante malgré une météo mitigée. Nous n'avons pas eu assez de la semaine pour visiter tous les magnifiques villages environnants... et ne manquerons pas de revenir dans ce même gite que nous retrouverons avec plaisir, ainsi que ses propriétaires...!
