This gite was fully restored by the owners a few years ago and they did an amazing job, staying faithful to the character of the property while using high end materials. It really is lovely.
There are 3 bedrooms. One is a downstairs double with a massage shower. The other two are upstairs; a spacious twin room (no ensuite) and another double (ensuite with another lovely shower). Also upstairs is the play area with a table football table, which we had great fun with!
Downstairs there is a kitchen with island, utility room, another toilet, and a large lounge/dining room.
Outside there is a covered seating area and table where we enjoyed eating even in the rain!
But for me the highlight of this place was the private pool in the back yard. It is listed as a shared pool, but is only shared with the owners, who were away during our stay so we had it all to ourselves! It was heated and got plenty of sun (as did the front of the property in fact).
We were met and shown round by a friend of the owners who lives very nearby and was very nice.
There are a couple of supermarkets just a few minutes' drive away (one in the town, which is walking distance, and a bigger one just outside Esternay). There is also lots to do in the region: velorail in Esternay itself, and a medieval village, Provins, half an hour away which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Highly recommended!
