Welcoming warm, home from home.

Ideal base for large group of friends or family. All bedrooms ensuite (always hot water), lovely lounge with roaring fire for a chilly November. Great base for exploring this area of France. Good transport links to explore further afield.

Holiday in France

This is a very nice property with lots of history. Mrs Roy was on-site to assist us with our arrival. The property offers complete rest in a peaceful location. It is equipped with books, board games and an indoor play barn complete with table tennis. The property is completely enclosed and the nearest road is over 400m away so it is safe for young children to run around. The friendly donkeys on site are a big attraction for the young (and old). We all (aged 4 - 71) enjoyed our stay and left completely refreshed

Lovely house in fabulous location

We all very much enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house. It was clean, peaceful and comfortable. The bedrooms were cool, even when the outside temperatures were high. There was also a lovely, large sitting room to spend time in, if the weather was not so good. The garden was beautiful and we ate most of our meals outside. Marie-Francoise was very helpful and gave us good recommendations for visits. We are still enjoying her rhubarb jam! Check-in and out were both very easy. The surrounding area was very interesting, with lots of places to visit. Highly reccomended!

Charming!

We visited for one week with our daughter, son in law and their four children. The home is spacious with plenty of bedrooms and baths and a great room with fire place upstairs. The kitchen is well equipped and the outdoor space was great for the children. The resident donkeys were quite a hit!. The owner was gracious and very helpful. We did day trips and returned each evenings for a meal and family time. There is a Patisserie in the village an a Pizzeria too. Both of which we took advantage of. The location is quiet and lovely in a rural setting at the edge of a small village, but only a few mile from a major highways. Thank you Marie Francoise!

Wunderschönes Landhaus

Wir haben mit unseren jungen erwachsenen Kindern eine herrliche Woche Frankreich im schönen Landhaus Rochefort verbracht. Tolles großes Haus mit vier Schlafzimmern mit jeweils eigenem Bad, einer gerĂ€umigen und gemĂŒtlichen WohnkĂŒche und im Obergeschoss mit riesigem Aufenthaltsraum. Im wunderschön angelegtem kleinen Garten konnten wir herrlich entspannen. Die Tischtennisplatte in der Scheune hat uns auch bei schlechtem Wetter die gute Stimmung erhalten! Im Haus gibt es alles, was man braucht, nur fĂŒr aufwendiges Kochen darf man keine vollstĂ€ndige Ausstattung erwarten. Ein Supermarkt sowie mehrere BĂ€ckereien sind im Nachbarort zu finden. Berneuil-sur-Aisne ist ein toller Ausgangspunkt (mit dem Auto) fĂŒr Fahrten in die schöne Umgebung. Besonders beeindruckt waren wir von der imposanten Burganlage in Pierrefonds (hier gibt es auch viel gute Gastronomie), aber natĂŒrlich sind auch Reims und CompiĂšgne sehr sehenswerte Ausflugsziele. Wir kommen gerne wieder! Merci Ă  Mme Roy et M. Anibal pour tout vos efforts, le gĂąteau fait Ă  maison et les courgettes dĂ©licieuses du jardin!

Our stay in Berneuil-sur-Aisne

This property is delightful. The garden was well kept and a wonderful place to relax. The property itself has real character and charm, particularly the upstairs living room. The bedrooms were spacious and each one had a comfortable en-suite bathroom. The donkeys and cat added to the charm of the property. We spent nearly two weeks here and enjoyed every minute. It is just over an hour away from Paris and about 20 minutes away from a range of activities and various villages so there is plenty to do. We had a wonderful time here and highly recommend it!

Relaxing holiday

An interesting building with beautiful grounds. Peaceful with wonderful forests surrounding. Many places of interest to visit just an hour away by car. Easy to go by train to Paris from CompiÚgne- it takes less than an hour. Our host, Marie-Françoise was very friendly and ensured we had everything we needed. We spent 2 weeks at the property and had a wonderful holiday.

Beautiful Place for a Holiday

We had a wonderful week in little Berneuil-sur-Aisne. We had a late hiccough to our arrival, but Marie-Francoise was there to greet us and show us around despite the lateness of the hour. The house is really beautiful with all appliances that one could want. The children were entertained by the Donkeys, the table tennis table and the bikes. We played Petanque in the courtyard and had some memorable days out near Reims and in Pierrefonds. A great house in a lovely location - the only surprise was the industry on the Aisne river, but to be honest, this did not distract us from a wonderful holiday.

Wunderbarer Familienurlaub

Wir haben mit unseren erwachsenen Kindern und deren Freundinnen in diesem ungewöhnlichen Haus eine sehr schöne gemeinsame Zeit verbracht. Das charmante Haus hat allen unseren BedĂŒrfnissen sehr gut genĂŒgt. Die große WohnkĂŒche, in der wir zusammen gekocht haben, der riesige, kirchenĂ€hnliche Wohnraum, 4 BĂ€der, das alles hat sehr viel Entspannung gebracht. Draußen haben wir den kreuzgangĂ€hnlich angelegten Garten mit den Sitzgelegenheiten und die Tischtennisplatte im großen Schuppen (prima auch bei schlechterem Wetter) rege genutzt. In der Umgebung haben wir einiges Interessante entdeckt, Schlösser, StĂ€dte und kleine Dörfer und viele Erinnerungen an die französisch-deutsche Geschichte. Das Haus bietet dazu eine Vielzahl an Unterlagen. Wir bedanken uns sehr bei Madame fĂŒr ihre große Gastfreundschaft und bei Monsieur Anibal, dem guten Geist des Hauses, fĂŒr die immer sofortige ErfĂŒllung unserer WĂŒnsche. Nous remercions Madame pour sa merveilleuse hospitalitĂ© et les dĂ©licatesses et Monsieur Anibal, le bon esprit de la maison, pour s'occuper immĂ©diatement de tous nos souhaits. Nous avons beaucoup apprĂ©ciĂ© nos vacances dans votre priorĂ©.

Wir haben mit 3 Paaren 10 Tage dort verbracht!Bei Frost und schlechtem Wetter haben wir die Möglichkeit in der großen KĂŒche zusammen zu kochen sehr genossen!Die Abende am Kaminofen (nach nötiger Anfeuerzeit) waren super gemĂŒtlich! Durch die vielen Lampen hatten wir eine heimelige AthmosphĂ€re und konnten trotzdem lesen! Unsere feierliche Silvestertafel im Obergeschoss erinnerte an die in der Umgebung besichtigten Schlösser! Einzig die antiken StĂŒhle waren fĂŒr unsere krĂ€ftigen MĂ€nner eine kleine Herausforderung.
