Lovely gite in a quiet village. Chris and Clare were great and on hand with advice etc if needed.The large garden was full of life - hoopoes entertained us daily.The gite is within easy reach of the coast and the forest around Mervent. We cycled everywhere during our stay - the quiet roads and tracks were greatly appreciated.The pool was a real bonus as we had hot weather during our stay.
