Prima vakantiewoning. Leuke ontvangst waarbij het enthousiasme van de eigenaar over bovenstaande schrijver inspireerde tot de lectuur over hem, daar voorhanden. We hebben ons er goed gevoeld; veel gezien en het was telkens prima om weer in de woning terug te komen.

Leuk, maar
Fijne woning. Alles is er aanwezig, de ligging is ideaal en je vindt er de nodige rust. De gastheer is gereserveerd, maar vriendelijk en correct. Qua hygiëne kan er nog aan het huisje gewerkt worden (sanitaire voorzieningen, keukengerei).

Ik begrijp het gedeelte van Victoire's opmerking over hygiëne niet en ik denk dat ze de accommodatie niet heeft waargenomen toen ze aankwam. Het is met zorg voorbereid, schoongemaakt, gedesinfecteerd en in overeenstemming met de strengste sanitaire regels gezien de huidige pandemie. Lakens, kussen- en matrasbeschermers, handdoeken, theedoeken worden op hoge temperatuur gewassen. Het serviesgoed wordt systematisch gecontroleerd en de douche, wc, gootsteen en wasbak worden grondig gedesinfecteerd. Dominique
Very neat old house in the garden of the abbey and next to the house of the property owner. Very warm welcome, great parking spot for the car and walking distance to the local boulangerie and shops. Good location for champagne wine tours. The towns (Essome-sur-Marne as well as Chateau-Thierry) are not as lovely as the small villages on the Montagne de Reims. Great walking routes in the area with lots of WWI and WWII historical sites.

tres bon accueil
Nous avons été très bien accueillis par le propriétaire, la cheminée était allumée à notre arrivée.
Le cottage est très bien situé, près de l'autoroute A4, d'Epernay et de Reims.
Il est situé au pied des vignes propice à de belles balades.
Le cottage est bien équipé et entretenu.
Un beau petit nid douillet pour des soirées romantiques.

Un site enchanteur et un gite de grande qualité très bien équipé
Tout est fourni dans ce gite très bien rénové ( savons, gel douches, linge de maison, lampe de poche, etc...) vous êtes comme à l'hôtel, avec l'avantage d'une cuisine en plus et d'un jardin privé attenant à un beau parc auquel vous avez accès. Le seul bémol concerne la luminosité excessive de la chambre pendant la nuit, et ce malgré les rideaux occultants.
