Very relaxing stay in a house that is well set up for families and couples.
Ecos is a charming village in the French countryside. Sandrine provided everything needed for the visitor. Her house was extremely welcoming and had all necessary conveniences for those on holiday. The bakery two doors down the street was an excellent extra pleasure. A suitable location for those wanting to visit Giverny and not too far to drive for any of the war memorials if you are interested. I would highly recommend this property.
Everything was perfect, the house, the host, the garden, the environment. Thank you, Sandrine. Ole T
Nothing more to say, go visit yourself.
Thank you Ole for all these compliments !
Our greatest reward is your satisfaction and your hapiness during your stay.
I hope for another time !!
I will be delighted,
Best Regards,
Sandrine
Charming, well fitted out and presented house in the heart of the village.
We were a group of six and had a lovely week at Le Jardin Secret. It really is a charming house and very comfortable. The bedrooms are well proportioned, the bathrooms new and spacious and with the kitchen / dining room opening out on to the lovely garden it is a very relaxing and sociable house to be in. You can see from various details that Sandrine, the owner, is clearly a great host - from the lovely shower gel provided to the welcome pack and flowers in the kitchen that were there on our arrival. The village of Écos is in a lovely rural setting - the boulangerie just next door is fabulous - and is well situated to get to many of the local attractions, particularly Giverny. I would thoroughly recommend Le Jardin Secret. Thank you Sandrine for your hospitality!
Dear Amanda,
I thank you for your kindness and you always will be welcome.
Have a nice summer,
Sandrine
WONDERFUL place in the countryside of France
We stayed for three nights and our family of seven loved it. Sandrine was kind and very attentive to any needs or questions. The bakery next door is to die for.....some of the best pastries we had in all of France. It was a beautiful quiet village that was also quite close to Giverny to visit Monet's gardens. Thank you for the wonderful time!
Merci Peter !
J'ai été ravie de vous accueillir avec votre adorable famille et j'aurais souhaité que vous puissiez rester plus longtemps afin de vous connaitre tous davantage.
Merci pour votre sympathie et bel été à tous,
Sandrine
The house is very well equipped and decorated to a high standard.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house is very roomy and the garden is lovely. The village is very quiet but well located for Geverny and other towns and places of interest. We enjoyed several BBQ and playing table tennis as the weather was very kind to us. Thank you Sandrine for your hospitality
Merci à vous Susan et je suis heureuse que vous ayez apprécié votre séjour au Jardin Secret.
Notre plus grande satisfaction reste la vôtre et les bons souvenirs que vous pouvez en tirer.
Vous serez toujours les bienvenus.
Bien à vous,
Sandrine
A delightful Gite with a beautiful garden
This Gite is presented to a high standard. It has 3 lovely double bedrooms, each tastefully decorated. The kitchen / dining room is well equipped and comfortably seats 6 people. The lounge is also of a good size with 2 comfortable sofas. The garden is absolutely delightful and lends itself so well to the name of the Gite - "The Secret Garden". There is an outside dining area, and 6 loungers in the garden.
Everything you might want is available, from kitchen utensils to bicycles, along with some children's toys.
The village of Ecos is very small small, and has very few facilities, however it is only a 10 minute drive to the nearest supermarket. It is also no more than 15 minutes from a variety of excellent places to visit, including Monet's Gardens at Giverny and Domaine of Villarceaux.
A very welcome touch was the tray of fresh breads, and the apple juice and milk provided. We also woke one morning to find a dozen fresh eggs on the doormat.
Highly recommended.
Chers Monsieur et Madame REES,
Nous vous remercions à notre tour pour vos sympathiques appréciations relatives à notre maison ainsi que le soin que vous y avez apporter le temps de votre séjour.
Merci également pour nos échanges bien que mon anglais reste très scolaire, merci pour votre gentillesse et c'est avec grand plaisir que nous vous accueillerons à nouveau si l'envie vous en dit.
Bien à vous,
Sandrine
