Wonderfull gîte

We had a great stay in the gite. The garden was wonderfull and the family was very friendly. The location of the gîte is great; nice and quit but still not far away from visiting sites. We visited beauval zoo (magnificent!), Blois, Selles sur Cher etc. Our children, 7, 2, 2 slept very well in their own cosy room. We ourselves bumped our heads a few times on the first floor (the doors are not made for tall dutch folk :-)) Wifi was not always at its best, but the owners did their best tot sort it out with the internet provider. We hope to see you again sometime Nigel and Andrea. Thanks for a splendid few days.

Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour. La maison était très propre à notre arrivée, et les hôtes sont particulièrement à l’écoute et disponibles.L’emplacement est idéal pour visiter la région, tout en profitant d’un cadre calme et reposant. La literie de la chambre adulte est très confortable, ce qui permet de vraiment se sentir en vacances.Le jardin est également un vrai plus, très agréable pour se détendre.Seul petit bémol : l’absence de lave-vaisselle, qui aurait été appréciable pour un séjour en famille.
