Wonderful Gite

We really enjoyed our stay! The Hosts were extremely courtesy and welcoming! They gave us a nice tour of the place when we arrived. Our younger kids enjoyed the trampoline that was available as well. The only thing we didn't realize was that the linens were an extra charge as the listing said they were provided. Other than the communication was excellent! We would happily stay there again if in the area. Thanks for allowing us to make memories at your Gite!

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour malgré la canicule. Les chambres en haut étaient chaudes mais le propriétaire a fourni un petit ventilateur. Le gîte est bien équipé avec un beau jardin ombragé où on a mangé tout les soirs. Le propriétaire est discret mais aussi très à l'écoute et répond vite aux questions. On s'est senti très bien accueilli.Le Cher est à 500m et on peut y aller par un petit chemin qui évite la route. On recommande une balade en bateau, soit la Valchantray ou les Mariniers du Jean Bricou.Ma mère âgée aurait aimé une rampe pour monté les quelques marches extérieures!
