We were a family group of 4 adults and 1 11 yr old. This beautiful house and very extensive property belonging to the chateau was a place of magic for each of us. The house is very spacious and equipped with outdoor games, all that we needed in the kitchen and endless outdoor spaces to explore. A place of deep charm with incredibly welcoming owners.
À proximité de nombreux centres d ’interêt , ce gîte est super quand il y a des enfants grâce à l’immense espace et les nombreux jeux qu’ils peuvent exploiter. La cuisine mériterait un peu plus d’espace et d’équipement pour cuisiner pour 8 à 10 personnes. Nous avons bien profité toute la semaine même si sur la fin il faisait très chaud et qu’il était difficile de rafraîchir les chambres du haut.
