Very good

The hostess is very friendly. In the add it said there was a washing machine, but the accommodation didn't have one. The hostess is willing to to your laundry for you, however. The nearest supermarket is a 20 minute drive. There's lots to see and do in the surrounding area. We had a pleasant stay.

About the host
Hosted by Donna-Marie
We are a family of 4 from Bristol, South-west of England. We arrived in France August 2016 with our 6 year old daughter, Lillie-Mae and 2.5 year old son, Corey.
Why they chose this property
Being in rural France is the best part of living here, the views of the countryside all year and the hot summers.
We wanted to get away from the UK weather, so chose to be south of the Loire and a maximum of 6 hours from Calais. Not too far for holiday makers, where it can still be warm.
What makes this property unique
Our Gite is quaint and tranquil. The only noise you can hear are the birds, it's so peaceful. The gardens are great for families, dogs etc
