Stort familiehus med fredelig lukket have, 1929, art deco

A large, stunning Art Deco house from 1929, with charming elements of the period, yet with all expected modern facilities. Large and beautifully peaceful garden with ample seating and gorgeous hidden corners. The area is surprisingly quiet and the domestic architecture is a quirky symptom of essential post-WWI reconstruction, as well as showing a great deal of architectural imagination, Travel into town is easy and buses are frequent, though there are plenty of food places and shops within walking distance. Huge hypermarkets are an easy drive away. Parking outside the house is not guaranteed, but usually possible. Pascale is a delightful hostess, and Audrey, her daughter and a student of Art History, welcomed us to the house and showed us round, with a perfect show of highly educated English. The house is a perfect base for visiting the WW1 sites around Albert, Thiepval and Peronne, as well as the medieval city of Loan, towns such as Soissons, Cambrai and Guise, the fortified churches of the Thierache and the forest of Saint Gobain. We even made it down to Compiegne, with its great palace and clearing where the armistice was signed. You can get as far as Reims in champagne country if you have determination! Saint Quentin itself is a surprisingly sedate and amiable town, with a vibrant centre clustered around a renaissance Town Hall, its famous carillon and its large open square. Excellent foody places all over town. A couple of splendid museums and Art Deco heritage around every corner. A lovely two-week stay. Thank you, Pascale.

We had a wonderful stay in Saint Quintin and in this beautiful art deco house! The rooms are spacious and very nicely decorated.

In the house you find a well equipped kitchen with a gas oven, a peaceful lounge is with comfy sofa´s and large dining table, lovely bedrooms and a large garden with flowers and old trees. The garden has walls all around it, so it was perfect for our little boy to explore and play in!

The owner Pascale and her daughter Audrey was also very friendly and helpful. We will definitely book again should we return to this part of France.

Trés belle maison,confortable,bien décorée.Avons apprécié avec les enfants le beau jardin-parc(arbres,fleurs)ainsi que la terrasse, étant donné le trés beau temps qu'il y a eu pendant ces quelques jours.

Cette location a apporté" un plus" à notre réunion familiale.

Seul petit bémol que nous avons solutionné sans trop de difficultés,le stationnement de nos deux voitures .
