Great host, property and location.

The host is fantastic with plenty of communication / information in advance. The house is large and really well equipped. Great pool / patio area. It’s set in a quiet rural area but with a big supermarket a few mins drive away. There are lots of wildlife including swallows, woodpeckers and birds of pray. The pool is the only open water in the area and attracts a lot of bees / wasps / flies. Other than that it’s perfect

18th August week 20204

This was a wonderful place to stay. The owners had thought of everything. Me and me three older teenage sons were Greeted with a lovely welcome pack of bread and wine etc. including loads of stuff for combating flies and they weren’t a problem for us. We had clear messaging beforehand and the owner messaged during the stay too. Met the guy who looks after the pool half way through and I felt if there was any problem we could have asked the owners for guidance. Lots of clean towels to use. The house was super clean and loads of stuff to use - bikes, games, pool, leads for all our gadgets ! Even they are big my sons loved the Harry Potter bedroom. Such attention to detail .! Alison gave us Lots of Ideas of places to go. Plus Every evening we could walk to the back of the back garden in woodland and fields of sunflowers - stunning . We tended to do day trips in the car to local towns and sites. Theres lots to see . You just have to drive about 45-60minutes - beautiful driving in the heart of French countryside. Thank you ! Hope to come back one day xxx

Un accueil irréprochable d'Alison qui nous a mis à l'aise de suite et nous à laisser une maison propre. Comme nous sommes arrivés un dimanche, de quoi faire un encas nous a été déposés . Une maison où l'on se croirait comme une résidence secondaire tant tout a été pensé comme tel : des jeux de sociétés, des draps fournis, babyfoot, des épices fournies dans la cuisine !..... Et la piscine, propre et tellement agréable. Les enfants ont adorés la chambre Harry Potter néanmoins toutes les chambres sont confortables. La literie : top !Un kit d'échantillons pour l'hygiène du corps offert dans chaque salle de bain ... Les enfants ont pu faire du poney à 1 min du logement.Nous espérons pouvoir y retourner très vite. Merci

vacances en famille et amis

Jolie batisse mais beaucoup de choses à réparer ( chasse d'eau, fuite, lave vaisselle, transat, infiltration, dalles piscine , poignéede porte) .Ménage très mal fait ( frigo même pas vidé, ni nettoyé) Beaucoup de choses qui trainent dangereuses ( clous, vis, bouts de verre, crochet de volet, poignée de porte coupante ) le revêtement de la terrasse est dangereux pour des enfants et tout simplement désagreable pour des adultes. Énormément d'insectes . La proprietaire s'est fichée de nos remarques sur les choses dangereuses , et n'a pas daigné repondre. d'insectes . La pas agreable ppur des aduktes

Séjour au top !

La maison est exceptionnelle, fidèle aux photos. Nous avons passé une excellente semaine, la piscine est très agréable et la literie impeccable. La maison est au calme, mais à 3 minutes en voiture d'aulnay et de l'intermarché. Les petites attentions des propriétaires sont très appréciables (bières, vin, confitures, thé...et même du gel hydroalcoolique).

Mooi huis en perfect voor middelgrote groepen om een week tot rust te kome

Wij verbleven hier met zeven personen. Het huis ligt in een rustige omgeving en sloot goed aan bij onze behoeftes. Alison en Gavin zorgden ervoor dat wij ons zeer welkom voelden en beantwoordden onze vragen snel. Het zwembad met bedjes was perfect om aan te zonnen. Het huis was van alle gemakken voorzien, waardoor wij konden koken wat wij wilden (bbq, oven en gasfornuis). Het was erg handig dat de supermarkt om de hoek was. De (bad)kamers waren schoon en prettig. Ook de slaapkamers zijn zeer ruim. Wij raden dit huis ten zeerste aan!

Prima huis met lekker zwembad

Leuk en goed ingericht huis. Heerlijk zwembad met voldoende zit/lig gelegenheid. Fijne eettafel buiten met bbq. Als het heel warm en zonnig is is er wat weinig schaduw. Leuk huis om met een groep of familie te verblijven.

The house is in a very quiet area, off the roads. This makes for a very lovely calm and private place to stay with family or friends.

August Aulnay stay

Lovely, well renovated property, perfect for a quiet, relaxing family holiday after a busy year. We found plenty to do with two teenagers in the local area and further afield, but also had some great days at ‘home’, relaxing, swimming, playing cards and games. Loads of space for us all to spread out, perfect garden for eating out and bbq. Well equipped kitchen and some lovely welcome goodies too. Just what we were looking for.

Excellent séjour

Très bon accueil. Nous avons été séduit par les merveilleuses attentions des propriétaires, ( thé, confitures, vins au frais, bières...) la propreté et la décoration soignée. L’environnement, le jardin, la piscine et les différents équipements nous ont permis de passer une très bonne semaine. On recommande !
