We had a really lovely stay here. The place is beautifully decked out, compact and cosy, and everything you need for a comfortable stay is there, right down to a genuinely comfy bed. It was amazingly quiet, and we loved watching the birds on the feeder outside, especially the ones getting a bit too enthusiastic about the feeding balls.Both the front and back outside areas are lovely to sit out in. One thing worth knowing that isn't obvious from the photos is that the property sits close to several other similar gite style buildings with no real partition between them, though as this one is at the end you only get the occasional person walking past.Saint Omer is about 15 minutes by car, but we found it surprisingly hard to find much open on the doorstep, even when Google Maps said otherwise. There are boulangeries and boucheries around but they're spread out sporadically. That felt like a fair trade off for the quiet though, and there's plenty of beauty and interest a short drive away. Hiring bikes and boats looked trickier to sort than we expected, but we had some wonderful walks through forests and around beautiful villages and towns instead. A great base for exploring the area.
