Lovely property as described by owner.
Met the charming hosts at the property not realising they moved out for us to move in ! No problem we were shown around by them to a beautiful house which was plenty big enough for 4 couples and three children .
Very clean property ,good outside terrace for eating and a really warm pool , grounds large and plenty of private parking, with a short walk to the pretty local town with local bars ,restaurants, boulangerie and well stocked supermarket .
Only downside lack of basic crockery particularly cups and mugs ,also had to buy a mop as none available and as we stayed for two weeks the white kitchen floor was difficult to keep clean , towels were provide but a little worn. In the grand scheme of things minor problems
Would recommend this property for a family holiday in a lovely part of France .
