Fairest house, all houses excelling

Beautiful et kindly sweet cottage in the very center of France. Everything is done, organised, to provide peace et pleasure to the traveler. A paradise in which the only présence is the tender murmur of wind, or the softly song of the fire place. Thank you a lot for your confidence, discretion, and humanity.

Lovely Setting

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay . The gite was well equipped and comfortable . It was a lovely area to explore although sadly lots of the restaurants and bars were closed or no longer existed . Sign of the times . Our only slight problem were the stairs in the gite ,they were very steep and had narrow treads as we are both in our eighties we had to descend backwards and if one needed a night call to the downstairs bathroom they were a bit hazardous . We should have perhaps mentioned our ages before booking or maybe a warning that the stairs were not really suitable for “older “ visitors . However having said that our visit was a huge success and we love watching the coypu and listening to the amazing amount of birdsong in the garden .

Hello again George, I’m glad you had a good holiday. The steep staircase is clearly mentioned in the description, so I think it is a little unfair to take off a star because of it. Also, I wonder if the bars and restaurants you went to were just not open when you arrived, as the list in the house is the 2024 list from the local tourist office, so they definitely still all exist.

Dangerous stairs

Did not enjoy our stay as stairs too dangerous to go down for younger or older people .had to stay downstairs . Cooking utensils not of a good standard compared to other Gites we have used . Towels were disgusting thankfully we took our own . Apart from toilet paper no toiletry’s available ,the condiments the salt was all damp . This was not what we expected at all . We stayed out all day just returning to sleep .I guess this is what happens when you leave things until the last minute you have to take what’s available . We won’t make this mistake again .

REVIEW LEFT BECAUSE I HAD TO REQUEST DAMAGE DEPOSIT. In all the time we have rented out our house (3 years now) we have never had guests who have broken so many items (including a very expensive Roman blind) and left the house in such a mess (dirt and mess everywhere). I have no idea what these people were doing, but I can guarantee that they were not “just sleeping” there, as they say in their review. Due to the broken blind (and a later discovered broken lamp and socket), this morning I had to request to keep their 100€ damage deposit - I have never had to do this before. This will not cover their damage but will go some way towards it. This is why this review was written, out of spite for this and I will contact Vrbo to see if it can be taken down. Saying the towels are disgusting and the cooking utensils were not a good standard is just an obvious lie if you look at all of our good reviews for cleanliness and how well equipped the house is, in here and on other sites. My husband and I work hard to make this house a beautiful, relaxing rural retreat for guests and we are upset and shocked about what these people did to our beautiful home - and how spiteful they have been afterwards.

Nous avons passé une magnifique semaine dans l'Indre sur les pas de Georges Sand et Jacques Tati. L'étang permet de se poser en admirant la nature. La maison est bien équipée. Nous aurions apprécié un lit en 160 et un matelas plus épais.

I am so happy you had a nice holiday :) You should have received a message with the full address, instructions about where the house is and a Google maps link to take you to the exact location. The house is also signposted when you arrive. I am sorry if you did not receive this information - I will look into it.

Maison très agréable

Nous avons bien profité en famille de cette maison bien aménagée et bien équipée, au calme, et pleine de ce charme rural que nous recherchions. Grand jardin très relaxant et de nombreuses activités sur place et alentour. On entend les ragondins plonger dans la mare et ils ne sont absolument pas gênants.

Idyllique

Nous avons adoré notre sejour dans cet adorable gîte au cadre bucolique. La maison cosy est décorée avec soin et tres bien équipée. La faune et la flore luxuriante sont un véritable enchantement. On a pu admirer d'adorables ragondins, des carpes et des grenouilles au bord de l'étang qui est la cerise sur le gâteau. Les hôtes sont chaleureux et prévenant. L'arrivée et le départ se font de manière autonome, ce qui nous a été fort utile. Je recommande ce lieu sans hésitation. Encore merci😊

La maison est joliment décorée et meublée et le jardin très agréable, l'étage du bas reste bien frais en été ce qui est appréciable. Les petits dysfonctionnement matériel ont été réglé aussi vite que possible par les propriétaires. Nous vous remercions pour votre accueil. Nombreuses excursions possible dans la journée : Maison de George Sand à Nohan , Gargilesse , Abbaye de Noirlac , Forêt de Tronçais , Bourges.

Sejour parfait dans la campagne profonde

Magnifique ‘cottage’ en pleine nature. Loin des grandes axes sans etre completement isole. On dort sous le toit, confortable mais il faut faire attention aux poutres et la porte qui sont tres bas! Joli gite tres bien equipe, on a adore la vaste pelouse et l’ombre des vieux arbres. Les proprietaires vivent a cote, ils sont tres gentils et attentifs- des petits problemes sont tres vite resolus. On recommande!

Merveilleux séjour

Nous avons passé un formidable moment dans ce gîte très mignon. Le jardin est formidable et la multitude d'oiseaux, un véritable enchantement. Notre séjour de 3 jours nous a permis des profiter des joies de la maison et son environnement et aussi de la région. A côté de la maison, ma fille a adoré aller observer la portée de chatons sur le compost de la grange voisine, ainsi que les vaches du chemin d'en face. Nous avons été nous balader sur le site des pierres jaumâtres et au lac de sidiailles. Très sympa !

Gezien het onderstaande wil ik geen recensie geven.

De vakantiewoning is prachtig, conform onze verwachtingen. Alleen de aanwezigheid van een groot aantal beverratten die in de tuin kwamen, heeft ons vakantiegevoel rondom het huisje beduidend verminderd. En de eigenaar wenste hier niets aan te doen. Beverratten kunnen schadelijk zijn en zijn ziekteverspreiders.

Janet, we are very sorry that you felt that the coypu's spoilt your holiday. We advertise that the house is set in nature and this includes all of the wild animals, weather that's birds, coypu's or any other animal. It is not that we didn't want to do anything about the coypu's but they are wild animals and we can't control that. We have had many returning guests who like the nature including the coypu's and we have not had an issue before. The coypu's are not harmful and they run away if anyone approaches them.

Mooi huis met alle nodige voorzieningen

Heel fijn huis! Mooie omgeving. Landelijke sfeer. Huis in de buurt van enkele andere huizen/boerderij. Hier merk je verder niets van. Gezellige dierengeluiden op de achtergrond (koeien, vogels). Voor sportieve fietsers zijn er mooie routes uit te zetten. Grotere winkels voor boodschappen zijn 20 minuten afstand met de auto. Zwemgelegenheid aan een leuk meer op 15 minuten. Iets verder weg zijn ook nog meertjes.
