We had a very relaxing stay in this beautifully renovated and well equipped gite. The pool, landscaped garden and surrounding countryside were thoroughly enjoyed with an abundance of interesting wildlife to watch.
Very much enjoyed the tranquil situation of the gite, it was very quiet with a lovely pool, we particularly enjoyed the end of the day sitting at the pool looking over the valley spotting the wildlife, Chrissy and Dave were both very helpful in every aspect.

Thank you Brian and Janice for your kind words. It was our absolute pleasure to meet you both and we hope to welcome you back in the future.
Hope your family time was great fun and you had a good journey home.
zeer aangename omgeving met de ervaring van de afwezigheid van lawaai. ook 's avonds/ 's nachts geen lichtvervuiling.
aangeduide wandelingen in de buurt en leuke marktjes en romaanse kerkjes in een straal van 50 km.
wat het huisje betreft: iets meer opbergruimte zou interessant zijn voor mensen die wat langer verblijven.
het lavabomeubel ( mooi kastje en degelijke kraan) is echt wel veel te laag!
Un cadre idyllique pour se reposer et profiter de la nature
Nous avons passé un merveilleux moment au Petit Coin! Nos hôtes étaient discrets et très attentionnés : panier de produits locaux a l’arrivée et premier petit déjeuner livré !
Tout est de qualité et très bien décoré, l’accès à la piscine nous est réservé presque toute la journée.
Merci encore à nos hôtes pour ces superbes moments

About the host
Hosted by David & Christina Laycock
Our French life began in December 2018 when we embarked on a total renovation of the property. We followed our hearts to begin a 25 year dream. We renovated our hearts out for 18 months bringing the property and land back to life after years of neglect. It has been an epic adventure and pushed us in every possible way, but brilliant fun too. We have been fortunate to have travelled the world, but always kept being pulled back to France and knew one day we would call it home.
Why they chose this property
The character, charm and idyllic location are a heavenly blend. With so much to do, explore and discover it's hard to tear yourself away. The wildlife is incredible and can be observed from the garden and pool terrace. A particular favourite is the crane migration which happens twice a year, spring and autumn. A truly majestic sight with hundreds of birds flying overhead for weeks.
What makes this property unique
Amazing wildlife. Tranquil and relaxing. Fantastic cycling and walking opportunities all around us. Tai Chi, massages and meditation. 5 minutes walk from Chateau de Beauvais. Couples only. Romantic escape. Star gazing. Pet and smoke free property. Fabulous French markets in the local area. Complimentary welcome food basket, bottle of wine and first breakfast.
