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.
