C'est un endroit idéal pour se reposer et découvrir notamment le cirque de Navacelles et la bambouseraie, que je conseille pour les amateurs de nature et de flore. J'ai profité également du hamac sur la terrasse pour dormir à la belle étoile, spectacle garantie. Les hôtes ont été particulièrement disponibles et accueillants. ##### Davide P.

Die Besitzer sind nett und unkompliziert, wir durften Tomaten ernten, die lecker sind…Nur: irreführend ist es, nicht auf die mögliche Anwesenheit weiterer Urlauber im gleichen Gebäude mit großer Terrasse direkt über unserer hinzuweisen, es handelt sich nicht um eine, sondern zwei Appartements in dem sicher urigen alten Gemäuer. Wir hatten so in der ersten von drei Urlaubswochen Lärm von Oben, morgens früh und an den Abenden (4 Erwachsene, 2 Kinder, ein Hund, inkl. Musik und lauter Unterhaltung ohne Rücksicht auf uns. Daher geben wir 2 Sterne Abzug, leider, denn es kann wirklich ein Paradies sein! ##### Uwe G.
