Wir haben eine sehr schöne Zeit in diesem schönen Haus verbracht. Wir fanden alles wie beschrieben vor.Es war ausreichend Platz für 5 Personen.Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Die Duschen sind sehr schön.Lebensmittel gibt es in Blesle, der Bäcker ist großartig. Dienstags muss man nach Massiac.Dort ist auch ein Intermarché, in dem man alles Notwendige bekommen kann. Es gibt Tausende Dinge in der Gegend zu tun.Rings ums Haus kommt man sich vor wie im schottischen Hochland.Klares Go für dieses Haus.
Une semaine au calme de la campagne et de ces magnifiques paysages.Le gîte des martinets est accueillant et chaleureux comme les propriétaires.A noter que les activités sont un peu éloignées.Agreable séjour.Je recommandé.
Néanmoins
