Côté cuisine tout est là avec plusieurs frigos et de l'équipement, les chambres sont géniales et très bien équipées. Le jardin est sublime, la propriétaire est adorable et toujours disponible. La maison n'est pas complètement isolée du monde donc il faudra composer avec le voisinage si vous souhaitez faire BEAUCOUP de bruit à l'extérieur, mais rien n'empêche de pousser les enceintes à fond dans le grand salon. Nous recommandons tous vivement. ##### Christophe R.

La maison a été réservée pour un anniversaire mais il faut faire le silence après 22h, dommage de plus qu’il y avait une sonorisation pour faire la fête et que la propriétaire avait été prévenue, écoulement bouché dans une salle de bain et pas de solution avant notre départ, je recommande malgré tout pour le calme, le nombre de chambres, la piscine et le jacuzzi ! ##### Felix G.
