Belle maison avec tout le confort et bien équipée pour un séjour en famille ou entre amis. La terrasse est très appréciable. Le logement est décoré avec goût et fonctionnel. Il est situé au centre de la ville, permettant l'accès à toutes les commodités et aux visites dans le centre ancien. Laurence est très accueillante et disponible, et pleine de belles attentions. Je recommande pour un séjour découverte à Fontenay et ses environs.
