Merveilleux séjour chez Charlène ! Nous avons adoré passer une semaine dans ce logement, propre et parfaitement equipé. Famillle de 4 avec un bébé, nous n’avons manqué de rien. Proximité des marmites à pied, du centre du village, et de nombreux points d’interêt en quelquesMinutes en voiture. Nous recommandons sans hésiter.
La "Petite Marmite’ est un merveilleux gîte à Pont de Poitte près de Clairvaux-les-Lacs. Très confortable et doté de tous les équipements nécessaires, son aspect rustique de maison ancienne toute en pierres et son intérieur à la déco moderne lui confèrent un charme à nul autre pareil. En pleine nature et près du lac de Vouglans il assure une totale tranquillité. Quant à son hôtesse, Charlène, sa gentillesse, sa disponibilité et son sourire rendent le séjour encore plus délicieux.
Gîte très agréable, accueil très sympathique, idéal pour qui aime la campagne et la randonnée. Par contre, éviter l'hôtel/restaurant du village, grosse arnaque avec le poulet au vin jaune !
