Nous avons passé deux semaines incroyables dans le gîte de Patrick et Claudine. Le gîte était très confortable et l'accès au jardin et à la piscine parfait. La piscine est vraiment extraordinaire et la vue du gîte incroyable! Nous avons pu visiter les environs facilement. Nos autres ont été charmants et de bons conseils.
