Beautiful property, great owners
Fantastic location, far enough away from towns but still near enough for shopping etc.
The house has everything we needed, and was big enough for our family of 5.
Charles and his family are fantastic and could not do enough for us. Thanks for a great stay. 5 Stars.

Great to host you. We hope to see you again in the near future.
A wonderful week of the summer holidays spent here! Beautiful, peaceful surroundings and the gite provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay - plenty of space for a family of 4, adequate kitchen equipment to self cater, and we made frequent use of the pool and the welcoming outdoor space (bbq, sun loungers, games area for the kids). 15 minutes into town for supermarkets, boulangerie. Charles and Debra have fantastic local knowledge of things to do nearby from swimming at the lake at La Fleche, local festivals, and days out further afield and places to eat The vineyard nearby also a must! Thank you for your wonderful hospitality, would not hesitate to return.

Nous avons passé un agréable séjour de 2 nuits. En compétition sportive dans les environs, l’endroit est calme et reposant. Les hôtes sont très agréables.
Un gîte charmant et très bien équipé pour un séjour au calme. Les hôtes sont accueillants, serviables et discrets. Il manque juste un petit store à la fenêtre de la salle de bain pour le soir.

Bonjour, nous vous remercions de votre commentaire. On vient d'installer un petit store dans la salle de bains. Nous espérons vous revoir prochainement.
Tout était parfait : maison très au calme, avec des chambres spacieuses et un bon agencement. Le gîte est très bien situé (proche Angers, Saumur accessible...), parfaitement équipé, avec des propriétaires proches mais très discrets et en même temps très accueillants et à l'écoute de leurs hôtes. Un très bel endroit dans lequel nous retournerons sans hésiter.

Lovely stay in tranquil countryside
Six of us stayed in this beautiful cottage. It is very close to some lovely towns along quiet roads. The children all enjoyed playing together and we especially enjoyed the table tennis!
