The area is quite beautiful and we enjoyed trips into Bessines-sur-Gartempe, and all the lovely lakes around. We were seven of us for most of the time and there was plenty of room and facilities for us. Although we were happy here and had a wonderful time there were a couple of gripes. We did not find the spiral staircase that easy for access to the upstairs and particularly to take our luggage up and down. The pool we thought could be dangerous for children and adults. it needed to be used just as a plunge pool really - and just in and out. No playing on the edges. (Not easy to get kids to understand!!) If you did fall the landing on the stones would be painful, and you had to sign a disclaimer as soon as you arrived. Neither my wife or I used the pool but the rest of the family did. We found some lovely walks in the immediate area and several times we walked across to Bessines. ##### Richard D.

Un superbe accueil avec un hôte très conciliant. Un extérieur très agréable avec la possibilité de garer plusieurs voitures (4 très facilement). Du soleil comme des coins d'ombre (et une piscine) pour supporter les fortes chaleurs. Au cœur de la nature, notez que nous avons été confrontés à des guêpes et des frelons (notament le soir). L'intérieur est tout aussi beau, tout y est fait pour accueillir de nombreux invités (2 lave-vaisselles !). De nombreuses choses à visiter aux alentours, une balade jusqu'à l'étang de Sagnat juste dans la rue (avec un parcours sportif autour de ce dernier). ##### DOROTHEE P. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2020 ---
