Although only 5 minutes from the nearest town, it feels much more secluded. Cesar the owner has thought of pretty much everything you might want. Spacious rooms, really well equipped kitchen, enormous bathroom. Kids loved the pool table and the pool even more. Outdoor, heated, good size lots of equipment and a separate pool house complete with a real wood bbq. The TV even had Netflix. The property sits entirely enclosed by your own mini woods. The only minor gripe is the WiFi, which was patchy at times, and not very fast. But this shouldn't stop you from staying here. We will definitely return. ##### Marcus O.

The outside area has a lovely seating area chairs and sun loungers included. There is a brick built BBQ and seating area to. The house was immaculately presented and had a very homely feel. Towels and bedding were all fresh and clean and there was an ample supply of these. The kitchen was well equipped again with a vast supply of crockery pots pans cups glasses etc. The photos really don’t do this wonderful house justice. There is a carrefour , Lidl and Aldi all a short 5-10 min drive away. Would highly recommend this charming French cottage for a perfectly relaxed holiday !

The place is secluded in a small wood that gives you the feeling to be in the middle of nature. The house is perfectly arranged and very practical, lots of games, space and a very nice kitchen. Now the pool is wonderful and the outdoor BBQ offers both some shade and a beautiful view on the pool, the house and the woods. I highly recommend this place for a week or weekend with friends and family. For those like us who like cycling, the surroundings are really nice and pretty. Finally, Verneuil-sur-Avre is only minutes away so while you are secluded you’re really close to shops and everything you need to buy food and anything you could need. ##### Arnaud R.
