Condition Note:
We feel it is worth disclosing the following to avoid any disputes or misunderstandings. The house is over a 150 years old and has many antique and older items. Some walls are the original torchis (mud and straw) and not perfectly true or smooth, floor boards may be unlevel and furniture doors may squeak. This does not come across on photos, whilst most people will appreciate the house, perfectionists and people used to staying in 5 star hotels may be disappointed. The standard aimed for is safety, cleanliness, comfort and function.

A lovely old French house, plenty of space and lots of things for the kids to do, table tennis a complete winner.
Rather sad to see most of the curtains hanging off the rails and kitchen doors hanging off. Also if you are looking for a place with comfortable beds and nice bedding and towels this may not be the place for you. Having said that, we had a wonderful time. The area and people were also wonderful.
Nous avons passé un excellent Noël dans cette maison spacieuse, au charme d’antan, très conviviale. L’environnement est très calme et verdoyant. On recommande !
Super moment passé à Brétigny ! La maison est superbe & nous avons pu profiter des extérieurs. Merci à notre hôte pour nos échanges et votre flexibilité !
Par contre les échanges avec Abritel directement n'ont pas été aidantes.
Grande maison rustique, pratique avec un grand terrain dans un petit hameau de quelques maisons en pleine campagne. Nous avons pu profiter de l extérieur pour de grands barbecues sur une grande tablée.
Une grande cuisine où on a pu cuisiner à plusieurs.
Je recommande pour un groupe qui désire être au calme ensemble.
Le marché de Dieppe à 20 mns le samedi matin, balade au bord de mer à Mers les bains.

Belle demeure familiale d'époque
Dans un hameau au calme, nous avons pu nous retrouver en famille pour fêter Noël (à dix). Une grande demeure bourgeoise au joli style anglais, assez spacieuse pour loger toute la famille. Avec un salon et sa cheminée fonctionnelle bien agréable en cette saison, car le chauffage était capricieux ( bien chaud à notre arrivée, mais trop chaud en pleine nuit: on a dû même ouvrir la fenêtre car c'était étouffant dans la chambre jaune car le robinet du radiateur est bloqué au maximum!) Et le matin, nous avons dû appeler le propriétaire pour redéclencher le thermostat (à distance) car tous les radiateurs étaient tous froid au lever … et jusqu'à notre appel à 9h30... Heureusement, il a été très réactif et avons pu avoir à nouveau la maison chauffée!!
Pour cuisiner, il y a une belle grande cuisine bien équipée (malgré l'absence de bols, pratiques pour les petits déjeuners, ou pour les grands buffets de circonstance!) Une suggestion: une boule à thé pour infuser le thé en vrac dans la théière ;)
La maison était propre malgré la vaisselle (assiettes, couverts, verres) que nous avons dû toute repasser au lave-vaisselle!
Super sympa: la présence d'un baby-foot, et d'une table de ping-pong dans une grande salle de jeux. Par contre, faute d'indication: nous n'avons pas trouvé la salle de fitness… peut-être dans la grange fermée avec un cadenas mais nous n'avions aucune infos pour y accéder, dommage!
Le jardin semble très agréable pour la période d'été, en espérant que les vacanciers pourront avoir accès aux vélos ;)
Chouettes souvenirs passés en famille mais quelques petits points à améliorer pour être tout à fait satisfaits!
Nous avons passé un très agréable week-end entre amis, la maison répondait à toutes nos attentes. Immense jardin, des chambres bien entretenues, une cuisine conviviale toute équipée. La plage à 20 mn de voiture. En bref, rien à reprocher à cette location, nous songeons déjà à y retourner ! Merci pour tout
In dit prachtige, grote en markante huis hebben wij een heerlijke vakantieweek doorgebracht. Het huis is mooi oud. Niet luxe, maar wel van alle noodzakelijke gemakken voorzien. Een huis met een enorme voor- en achtertuin om echt in en om te leven. Voeg daarbij de prachtige omgeving en je vakantiegeluk is compleet. Een aanrader!
Spacious house of rural character with with matching soft and general furnishings to suit restored w
As above,very peaceful location for lovely short or long stay.Good extras like gym,cycles use and two patios so can sit or dine front or rear gardens depending on weather

Sehr schön ruhig
Das Haus verfügt über einen rustikalen Charme. Der Garten ist sehr schön, könnte aber etwas mehr Pflege gebrauchen. Es sind alle Dinge vorhanden, die im Urlaub benötigt werden, sogar ein Wäschetrockner. Die gelisteten Fahrräder haben wir nicht gefunden, aber auch nicht benötigt.
Insgesamt sehr empfehlenswert.

Super séjour
Nous avons passé un agréable séjour dans cette charmante demeure bien entretenue. Il y avait tout l'espace dont nous avions besoin, Un beau grand jardin même si on a pas su en profiter à cause du temps et les sanitaires sont plus que correct.
