Aug 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy country house Our stay at Les Canards was a very pleasant experience. There was plenty of space and beds with new linen as well as plenty of towels and kitchen utensils. The outdoor area was beautiful and very private and the pool a big hit. Furthermore, there were well-functioning bikes and table-tennis equipment. The only downside was that the wifi connection wasn't really working - or only partially, but that was a minor thing. All in all, we have enjoyed our stay very much and can only recommend this beautiful country house. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1b3fc823-277f-447b-bb0d-c7dc6f587c83-1754406553815.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f6506f89-a91e-476d-bb63-1baab0275007-1754406560412.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3724a73a-fe5b-4b04-9eba-1a4581168962-1754406567369.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7acd52fe-5bd3-4f02-aae6-da8e5a88d376-1754406575794.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Christopher H.

Die gesamte Anlage ist sehr schön, groß und auch sehr gepflegt. Unser Hund konnte auf dem eingezäunten Grundstück frei laufen. Der Pool war groß und ideal für warme Sommertage. Die Häuser sind sehr gut ausgestattet und alles war sehr sauber bei unserer Ankunft. Die Vermieter waren stets freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit. ##### Barbara W. Stayed 14 nights in Jul 2024
