Relaxing !!

The place is truly beautiful,clean and extremely well equipped. Phillipe and his wife (agents) were very pleasant and very helpful. The owner went out of his way to make our stay enjoyable.Im not sure it would be the perfect place for young children as apart from a covered pool it’s extremely quiet. Huge supermarket approx 6km at Gien plus a few restaurants, we loved our holiday there

Pure bliss, quiet and beautiful

The cottage was delightful. We stayed with my small dog who made friends with one of the two resident dogs Perdé and they had a an absolute blast the whole week! The surrounding grounds are great to walk, the property is gorgeous, tastefully decorated and the gardens are stunning. A very peaceful place. Couldn’t hope for anywhere better, we had the most wonderful week and would recommend the property without hesitation.

Idyllic Country Cottage

We have just returned from spending 3 amazing weeks at this gorgeous house, the lovely host was amazing & very friendly and made us feel very welcome. The house keepers were attentive and dealt with the few requests we made immediately and without fuss. The chateau in the village is worth a visit and any shopping/bars/restaurants you may require are only a 10 minute drive away in Gien. We are so grateful to have had a really tranquil holiday here, the garden is beautiful and the pool we fell in love with! Thank you so much for letting us stay and we hope that one day we will be back to visit xx

Fantastic time had by all

We had a fantastic family vacation at the end of the summer break. The property was great with 3 good sized bedrooms. Facilities were good quality with new modern bathrooms complementing the more traditional living area. Pool was heated and the kids loved it...spending 2-3 hours in it everyday. Location great for nearby chateau and historic towns. We also went to Disneyland Paris one day which was a 1.45 hour trip. Great Weber barbeque available and bijou kitchen with everything you will need. Immaculate bedding and towels. Also met the owners Gerard and Nicole, two lovely people. Highly recommended.

We hadden een geweldige tijd! Er zijn veel activiteiten in de omgeving, in de tuin kun je voetballen, zwemmen, vissen voeren en in het bos kun je herten, zwijnen en ganzen zien. De medewerkers zijn erg aardig en spreken goed engels. Het is een goedverzorgd net huis met alle voorzieningen. Absolute aanrader!

Große Enttäuschung...

Positiv war: das gesamte Aussenanwesen, riesengroß und gepflegt, mitten im Wald, mit großzügigem überdachtem Pool. Was nicht passte war der Rest. Die Fotos waren vielversprechend aber leider entsprachen diese nicht der Realität. Man bewohnt nicht, wie durch die Abbildung suggeriert das ganze Haus, sondern nur den sehr engen linken Teil. Hier ist es furchtbar eng, dunkel und zugestellt. Die Sauberkeit im ganzen Haus war schlimm. Bevor man in der Küche auch nur etwas benutzen oder ablegen wollte, mussten wir putzen!!! Der Wasserkocher war komplett verkalkt und der Deckel schloss nicht mehr - ich habe diesen entkalkt! Die Kaffeemaschine wurde sicher noch nie geputzt...eine Stunde scheuern und 5 Durchläufe später konnte man den Kaffee endlich trinken. Der Backofen bzw. Die Bleche waren dreckig, sämtliche Oberflächen und Deko- Objekte hatten eine fettige Staubschicht. Die Ausstattung der Küche bestand aus alten, ausrangierten Sachen, das Besteck war billigstes Blech....und alles dreckig! Die Dunstabzugshaube war sehenswert - Panzer-Tape kann viel, aber einen vor Fett triefende Filter am Platz halten....Das ganze Haus reicht nach Sickergrube und Feuchtigkeit. Auch der zur Verfügung stehende Grill auf der Terrasse war in einem jämmerlichen Zustand. in den oberen Teil führt eine enge sehr steile Treppe. Oben liegt Teppich aus der wohl mal hell war... barfuß wollte keiner laufen. Die Schlafzimmer sind winzig. Beleuchtung Mangelware. Das Bad mit Wanne ist ok, die separate Dusche sehr eng und für das benutzen des ebenfalls separaten WC sollte man auch keine Gewichtsprobleme haben. In keinem der sanitären Räume ist ein Fenster oder eine Lüftung so dass Dampf und Gerüche in den Flur gehen. Die Matratzen waren bretthart - Schlaf war unmöglich. Das hier angebotene 5. Bett steht in einem Durchgangsraum unter der Holztreppe...ich würde hier niemanden schlafen lassen. Wie erwähnt, wurden die Fotos verfälscht. Die Möbel stehen anders und der Weitwinkel hat Geräumigkeit erzeugt die nicht da war. Am besten man hält sich auf der Terrasse auf. Der Garten ist traumhaft. Der Pool hat eine schöne Größe so dass man auch schwimmen kann. Allerdings ist dieser stark gechlort so dass man beim Betreten des Pool Hauses erst mal einen Hustenanfall bekommt. Der Eigentümer und Verwalter wohnen direkt nebenan. Die zwei zum Haus gehörenden Hunde sind ständig präsent...der kleine davon frech und aufdringlich. .. Englisch versteht vor Ort niemand. Aber vielen Dank für Honig und Wein!

A hidden gem!

When we arrived, we were a little confused to begin with about who lived where and what's what. No one speaks English so please make sure you go prepared for this. As you drive up to the property through the electric gates there's a main house to the left, the holiday let and caretakers semi detached property in front and a barn under conversion to the right. The holiday cottage consisted of a double and a twin upstairs next to a separate shower, toilet and main bathroom with a full-sized bath. Downstairs there's another en-suite single room and also a living room and small kitchen. The kitchen is well equipped with a cooker, hob, microwave, fridge with an icebox and dishwasher. The main house has a laundry and the machines are there for your use if you need them. The back door from the living room opens onto the most beautiful patio and garden with seating for 6, sun loungers and a ping pong table. The pool is behind the main house and is just a 20 second walk from the back door. It's used exclusively by the holiday let (at least it was whilst we were there). We took our inflatables and we're allowed to use it at anytime we wished. There are no restrictions at all and you are free to roam around the grounds. It's really fun to feed the fish in the huge pond! To address the previous post of noise. We too experienced work to the barn roof for one day. However, we asked (I messaged via the VRBO app) for the noise to stop and it did. The workmen completely ceased all work whilst we were there, even giving us a bottle of champagne to apologise. Everyone was really friendly and we especially loved meeting 'Christian' who was so very kind and funny. If we had any negatives it's that there isn't anything to do for children in the area. The pool was great to keep the kids occupied but do bear in mind children might get bored. This property is perfect for anyone wanting a peaceful getaway and is wanting to kick back and stop for a bit. I just wanted to address the previous post issue with dogs. We ate dog people and we adored having the two dogs interact with us. The owners will pop the away if you wish. Finally, for those wondering if you should pack a weeks shopping - don't. There's an Aldi and a local French supermarket within 5-10 mins drive in Gien. There's also a retail park, McDonalds and a lovely Boulangerie. This really is a cracking property, we would definitely return but without children.......

Lovely French Gite

The property was lovely and sat alongside the owners home in beautiful gardens. Electric gated access made you feel secure. Our aim was to have peaceful two weeks with swimming walking and relaxing. On the Monday of our second week however we were awoken by loud traffic noises and banging. The roof of one of the outbuildings was being replaced. We were not advised in advance of this, either in our booking or after we arrived so our peace and quiet was spoilt. It was still ongoing when we left. We did mention it to the manager Isobelle, she just shrugged. The owner also had two dogs which again we were not aware of. They roamed the grounds freely. They were friendly enough but a nuisance and meal times when we eat outside. One of the bed throws was covered in animal hair. Dogs are allowed in the rental but we did not have a dog with us and felt this should have been picked up in cleaning.

Magnifique environnement !!

Nous avons séjourné durant la semaine du nouvel an. Nous avons heureusement eu quelques jours de soleil, ce qui nous a fait profiter du très bel environnement. La maison est entournée de bois et lacs. Le jardin est clôturé mais petit bémol les autres occupants laissent tout le temps le portail ouvert donc pas pratique pour des chiens fugueurs... De plus, les propriétaires ont 2 chiens qui sont adorables mais les miens n'étant pas sociables, il fallait les faire sortir en alternance. J'aurais voulu être prévenue que les propriétaires avaient des chiens en totale liberté !! La piscine est magnifique mais très froide. Après deux jours, nous avons demandé au gardien d'augmenter la température et là c'était bien mieux. Il faut savoir que vous n'êtes absolument pas seuls dans cette propriété. Il y a les propriétaires très gentils qui sont juste à côté et le gardien dans la même maison mais séparé par un mur. Tout cela devrait être inscrit sur l'annonce, ainsi pas de surprise. Sinon la joie de faire un bon feu de cheminée (on peut se servir de bois à volonté) et le dépaysement total car en totale nature. Les contacts avec la propriétaire ont été bons mais elle n'est pas venue nous saluer à notre arrivée, c'est une autre personne qui accueille les locataires, pour un souci de tranquillité j'imagine. Nous avons également visité Sancerre qui pour moi ne vaut vraiment pas le détour. Nous avons mangé à l'hôtel Les Remparts .... et ce n'était pas mauvais et les quantités étaient correctes. Sinon le lit de la chambre parentale est très petit mais la chambre aussi. Sinon belles salles de bains, belle salle de douche. Tout le confort y est. Seul petit bémol : surtout le frigo est à changer !! Non seulement il ne refroidit pas bien mais en plus il est très petit. Heureusement que le congélateur des propriétaires est à notre disposition dans la grange :) et lui va merveilleusement bien (pour refroidir le vin :P) Dernière petite remarque, nous avons eu qq cafards dans la maison mais normal après tout en plein bois :) Très bon séjour dans l'ensemble, nous essayerons de revenir mais sans les chiens :P

Accès à 350 ha de parc, forêts (biches, sangliers) avec étangs.

A comfortable house on a beautiful estate

We spent a wonderful week on the beautiful estate. If you're looking to spend time in a classy home, engulfed in nature, peace and quiet, this is it. The house is on a 9 km2 estate that has wild boar, deer, foxes and other wildlife. But the house itself is on a fully gated terrain, so perfect for kids and dogs. We enjoyed the big luxury pool and the immense lawn. Both the owner and groundskeepers are very helpful and friendly. The village is nearly and has a small supermarket and a 'boulangerie'. But the bigger town of Gien is only 15 minutes away. All-in-all we had a wonderful time!
