Le gîte est confortable. Le jardin clos intime et reposant. L'auvent permet de profiter de l'extérieur quelle que soit la météo. Nous avons circulé en vélo toute la semaine sur les circuits bien flêchés et sur les petites routes de campagne. Le plus : une barque est mise à la disposition du gîte pour découvrir le marais au plus près. Je recommande cet endroit. ##### Pascale H.
