The house has everything you need to have a comfortable holiday. With the train it takes about 1h - 1h30 to get in Paris, which is ok.The house is in fact a home of a family, with many pictures and many personal stuff from the family. This makes it difficult to have that holiday feeling, also, there is not much to do in the village nearby. In my opinion, the owner should find another family to swap houses with, instead of asking money while they are on their own holiday (for example, if you like cats, you will love providing food and attention to their Poppy, but of you don't like cats,...), but that is another matter, the house on itself is certainly ok.
