Wonderful stay in beautiful house

We had 5 of us staying here for 10 nights. The property itself is a great size, so much room with all the amenities we needed. The garden was private and a great size for large groups. We couldn’t have wanted for better accommodation. It was an idea location for us driving between Reims and Paris for all the things we had organised.

Lovely break in a fabulous house in a peaceful village

We had originally booked to stay here at Christmas but our trip was cancelled due to Covid. We were able to rebook and stayed at end of May. The accommodation was very well appointed and the garden was lovely and secluded. Carole and Arnaud were very welcoming and helpful. All in all we had a lovely relaxing break with our family and dog. We would love to return at Christmas time. Maybe next year.

Gîte au top

Le gîte de la Tour en Garde est parfaite pour des retrouvailles entre amis. Le gîte est très bien Equipé et décoré avec soin, le jardin est charmant. Le village est très calme et il est agréable de s’y promener, le parfum des fleurs nous accompagnant tout au long de la ballade dans les ruelles. C’est un parfait point de départ pour aller visiter Laon et Soissons. Bref c’est un gîte à recommander Vivement

Amazing French holiday

This property was full of surprises but amazing in every way! There was plenty of room for 9 of us. The garden was beautiful and so peaceful. We wanted a French retreat and that is exactly what we got. The little village was quiet but everyone was friendly. The castle grounds and walls surrounded the house and village which was amazing. I would highly recommend this property for all of its features and its location. It’s a short drive to some of the larger towns. I’d definitely return.

Expérience moderne à l'intérieur des fortifications de Coucy le Château près de Soissons.

Maison très bien équipée, plein sud face à la Porte de Soissons. Verrière lumineuse dans la salle à manger, salon avec cheminée et pièce avec Jacuzzi pour 6 personnes complètent cette association de l'histoire et de la modernité. Belle grande cuisine bien équipée pour développer des talents culinaires et un grand jardin clos avec terrasse pour profiter du grand air au soleil. Les chambres sont spacieuses, les salles de bain bien équipées. Voilà pourquoi notre séjour de 8 adultes, 2 enfants et un chien a été magnifique ! Très belle découverte ! Très belle expérience. Merci à Carole et Arnaud pour leur bienveillance et leur disponibilité. Corinne et Daniel.

Beautiful, charming cottage, helpful hosts

Had a fantastic time in this cottage. The area is beautiful but quiet, one pizzeria and a bar. Enough though! We went away to get away and it was a perfect location. The house itself was immaculate. The hosts were incredibly helpful and the cottage spotlessly clean. And the photos don’t do the interview justice. It’s stunning! We visited Christmas market nearby on recommendation from Carole and the kids thoroughly enjoyed it We stayed here with two families; 4 adults and 6 children and there was plenty of space. Would definitely stay again. Thank you.

Alles perfect verzorgd. Leuke tuin. Alles aanwezig wat je nodig hebt voor een ontspannende vakantie. Twee minpuntjes : slechte ontvangst WiFi, en tv ontvangst ook niet goed (tijdens de tour de France, niet echt tof. Gelukkig konden we ons behelpen met onze eigen materialen) maar toch een aanrader!

Delightful!

Carole’s house is delightful. Each room is beautifully decorated and comfortable. The well stocked kitchen allows for the preparation of any meal, the sunroom/ dining room provides plenty of sunlight and a beautiful view of the flower filled garden. Carole is the perfect host, welcoming and helpful. The location is ideal , you are literally surrounded by history. Not far from Pierrefonds, Campiegne, Soissons, Chantilly, Chemins des Dames, Paris... we look forward to returning.
