We spent the most amazing fortnight in this beautiful house. This is the best holiday home in France that we have ever stayed in. The home, and gardens, have been beautifully finished by the current owners and are equipped to a very high standard. The beds are extremly comfortable and the showers superb! The pool was a massive hit with all five children (and four adults!) I can honestly say there was nothing we would want to change.
At Le Bouchet, you really feel like you are staying in the middle of nowhere. Sitting in the garden, looking at the stars and listening to the frog chorus and grasshoppers is such an amazing way to relax. However, Descartes, the local town, is less that five minutes drive away and has everything you might need (including three supermarkets). In this part of France there are old towns, chateaux, lakes, forests, canoes, bicycles to hire, animals parks and a fabulous theme park (Futuroscope). They are all easily accesible on largely empty roads with beautiful fields all around.
Trevor and Sue are very good hosts. They were on hand whenever we needed help and advice. They made it easy for our party, of non-fluent French speakers, to have a superb holiday. Our children enjoyed meeting their goats, dogs and chickens, and on one occasion a praying mantis! I can't recommend this house highly enough.
