Enjoyed a lovely week here in July. Property was a little dusty on arrival, but being over a hundred years old this is to be expected. Everything in terms of equipment in the property has been taken care of, from vacuum cleaner to modern washing machine to more plates and pans than even the most adventurous cook could require!
The house is within the sleepy village of Embry which is very convenient for travelling to the coast (le Touquet - 40 mins) or the beautiful old towns in the area (e.g. Montreuil - 20 mins)
We had 3 under 5s with us and found plenty to keep them occupied. For example there is a lovely goat farm, (5 mins away by car), la Halte d'Autrefois, where the owner happily showed us the goats, chickens and kittens! They also sell a very soft and subtle goats cheese which is mild enough even for non goats cheese lovers!
An excellent property which I would highly recommend for a group who like a quiet (no phone signal), equipped (wifi, TV, DVD, games, great kitchen) and pretty house to get away from it all within an hour of Calais.
