Last minute trip to Flanders

We booked our trip the day before as a last minute break. Sabine is a wonderful host who made us feel very welcome and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. The gite is very close to the Belgian border and we visited several historic sites as well as a brewery tour. Would highly recommend as a base for anyone wishing to explore Passchendale, Ypres and other WW1 places of interest. Thank you Sabine, we very much enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful, cosy and soooooo..... French!

Sabine is such a warm and welcoming host. She was a mine of information regarding the local area The apartment had everything we needed for a short stay, with free parking on site. The decor is gorgeous and the garden so atmospheric. The village is lovely and quiet but with a SUPERB supermarket just 2 minutes from the apartment. Very conveniently located to explore the local area. Highly recommend.

Best Gite in Northern France

We were looking to find a nice little village to stay in with easy access to northern France and Belgium. What we found was a great Gite with a wonderful host who was very attentive to our needs and made us feel quite at home. The Gite had plenty of room for us, everything we needed (we found not having a TV was in fact a bonus), and a lovely garden to relax in. Sabine gave us helpful advice on what to visit, how best to get there and assisted us across the language barriers (she speaks English much better than we speak French!). We loved our stay and could not have asked for a better combination of location, comfort and host.

quite nice, but not a second time

The house itself is quite nice, but unfortunately the toilet didn't flush and the shower is extremely small and the sliding door was wobbly. We also had the impression that the owner, who lives right next door, was keeping a very close eye on us. She knew when we were out, commented on the day of departure that she had already seen that we had put the rubbish outside the door and, last but not least, she actually opened our locked bin bags and rummaged through them. She charged us €16 for three broken cheap wine glasses (IKEA). To be fair, I have to mention that we had forgotten to tell her when we left that the glasses had been broken.

Response from VrboOwner on 19 Jan 2024

Dear Richard I am very surprised to discover your comment regarding your stay. You seemed so happy. What you consider to be intrusion is only kindness towards you. We offered you a late check-out, which you accepted. I actually saw that you had left your trash in front of the cottage, which was normal. When we started cleaning the cottage, you left it in an incredibly dirty state? I actually noticed that 3 glasses, a cup and 2 plates had disappeared???? So I contacted you and you bamboozled me into a false explanation by saying that your wife had broken the dishes in the "rush to leave", I quote! You stayed with us for 6 days and in 6 days you broke some dishes, it's not dramatic in itself but I hate lying. Concernany your comments about our equipment, only you have had problems with flushing toilets, and problems with shower size!!! I don't understand your aggression!!! These are lies and you know it! When I contacted you following the inventory, you spontaneously offered to pay the breakage costs and yes indeed dear Sir, we have been purchasing the supplies to best equip our accommodation to accommodate our travelers for 7 years. We are obviously disappointed to read these lies and regret that
