There were 12 of us for a wedding anniversary celebration. Instant Morienval ticked all the boxes we were looking for. There was enough space to give everyone privacy, as well as lots of communal areas to come together. It would have been the perfect place if it wasn't for a few niggles - see below.
Florence the owner is lovely and helpful, even giving us some eggs when we ran out of them.
But I think there must be a lot of wear and tear on the property - dishwasher had broken cutlery drawer and faulty soap dispenser, kitchen bin lid broken so it won't close, kitchen cupboard door handle on one of the cupboards broken (not able to close it), wine fridge too warm and no way to change temperature, pod coffee machine broken/faulty, fridge inner door missing (to be fair, Florence did tell us that the previous group staying broke this - no time to fix before our party arrived), freezer drawer rail broken making it really unhandy to pull out and push back in again. I expect these things will be fixed soon. If it wasn't for all of these things I would have given the propery five stars.
One more thing - there is only one sun parasol on the terrace. Seeing as there was 30-degree heatwave weather during our stay, this was not enough. We asked Florence for some more parasols (expecting her to buy some) but she said she didn't have any more. I asked if she could borrow some. She said she tried but no one could lend any. A shame considering how much money this property costs to rent. But like I said, I would have gladly given this property 5 stars - almost perfect. Lucy
