GUEST COMMENTS
Dear Hazel, dear David,
again, thank you very much
for our "chill-out" in France. Your property is very very nice, (especially the
Lodgehouse is lovely). I miss that French region and style already. Especially
the guy from the "boulangerie". He has really the best croissants and
chocolatines.
See you soon!
Silke & Martin Wiese
Many thanks
again for your wonderful hospitality and the great accommodation. We had a
fantastic time and would recommend you to anyone both in terms of facilities and
hospitality but also location with reasonable drives to the coast and to both
puy de fou and to futuroscope, all of which we thought were fantastic.
