Fun in the sun
We had a week here at the end of July 2020 and had a great time - the house is terrific, lots of space, a great pool and garden. We all enjoyed the stay. The area was quiet, which was fine in these strange times. The main challenge for us was a heatwave, and the property did get very warm without a lot of focus on shading / ventilation. Worth bearing in mind if you are coming at the height of summer. The main highlights were the pool and the wonderful outside spaces for eating & relaxing - the space under the willow was particularly good on a hot day.

A family gathering
A lovely house in a fairly remote position with a very sleepy village close by although it did have a small supermarket.Fantastic garden for the grandchildren to play in. We thought the bathrooms were very dated.House was well equipped and great log burner for chilly evenings. Superb outside eating areas for when sun shone. All in all we had a very enjoyable time, and would return.

Could not have asked for better
No complaints whatsoever. Large comfortable house, large garden (great for dog). Location excellent - near a small hamlet with quiet lanes but supermarket only 5 minutes away by car and the Canal du Nivernais only 10 minutes by car, giving good flat walking along the towpath. A house we were sorry to leave and to which we plan to return.
