“A pleasure to stay here!”
What an amazing, quiet, charming location and what lovely, friendly hosts. The room was spotless and very comfortable. We loved sitting on our balcony looking over the water - no mosquitos! Great shower, Wifi, tea and coffee making facilities and a very comfortable bed. We really enjoyed chatting with our hosts and the other guests at breakfast. Breakfast was excellent - Madame makes just about everything herself. We would love to return.

“Beautiful place - grumpy owner!”
Very peaceful, clean and well-kept. A lovely, inviting little swimming pool and a trampoline, which our children enjoyed. Wonderful breakfast with homemade brioche, jam and cakes. The host clearly works very hard…Nearby Coulon is very pretty.

“Isolated stopover BnB”
The idea of a green and laid back place to take it easy. However, we struggled to fit into their regimen and routine. You need to speak good French and also like dogs. The bed was comfortable if a bit low.
