Aug 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Nous avons passé un long week-end dans ce gîte avec des amis. Petits et grands ont pu profiter des différents espaces de la maison et de l'extérieur. La maison est bien équipée, rien ne nous a manqué. Le petit plus serait du mobilier de jardin un peu plus cosy pour refaire le monde le soir ! ##### Isabelle W. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michel B.
