l’Ile Barbe Ideal !
What a great house - impressive, historic property with plenty of space for our group to spread out. The warm weather meant we spent most of the time in the terrace/pool area and used the outdoor kitchen and grill to cook on.
Check in was easy with the hosts greeting us at the house, allowing us to leave our bags there before check in. They explained the property and the area providing a personal touch .
The house was clean and spotless with good linens and towels. Also good kitchen equipment and plenty of glasses and crockery.
One thing to note is that this is a 5 bedroom property, with one of those bedrooms being a cabine-style room within a larger en-suite bedroom.
The local area is great. We loved Boulangerie Jocteur, the restaurant Au Porte Pot, and the roast chicken man on Sundays !
Getting in to Lyon was a breeze on the bus and metro. No car needed at all.
This was a great base for the rugby, for wine tours on the days between games, and exploring the various neighborhoods of Lyon.
We’ll be back next time we’re in Lyon
