Lovely house
Had a wonderful time at the house. Comfortable and clean. The grandchildren loved the pool and our two dogs were more than happy with the garden at the rear of the house, which was very private. The host were very helpful. Thank you for a lovely holiday

Lovely property but not dog secure
There were positives and negatives. The owners were very friendly, helpful and gave us fresh veg from their kitchen garden. The gite itself was nicely decorated, modern and with plenty of amenities provided. The listing was misleading in a few areas. The listing said dog friendly yet the owners said they were scared of our Springer Spaniel when he barked. The fences were of varying heights, some not high enough to keep the dog in and there was no front gate, thankfully there was a private drive. This meant that much of the time the dog had to be kept on a lead. Dog friendly and dog secure are a world apart. The listing said the pool was shared with the owners which was fine but on several days there was as many as 9 family members there which was a stretch too far. There were a lot of flies, which was understandable being near a farm. The best way to keep flies out was to keep the doors shut, making the gite very hot. AC would be advantageous. Overall, not what was promised.

Fabulous holiday!
We spent a lovely week's holiday at the gite with our 2 children aged 8 and 4. Thierry and Cecile were very welcoming. The accommodation is of high standard both inside and out. It's a real home from home. Very well equipped, clean, comfortable, good cooking facilities and we all loved being able to access Netflix on the TV! It was great being able to use the outdoor pool in the beautiful sunny, warm weather and we also used the ping pong table one evening. Thierry was very kind in letting us sample his home grown tomatoes and cucumber. We enjoyed a few family days out to Lac du Val Joly, l'etang de blangy, Maubeuge zoo and the Parc d'isle Jacques Braconnier at St Quentin. All great places to take children. We would highly recommend!

Quiet, Peaceful, Relaxing & a great base for cycling
Lovely old building with a nice modern interior. Well presented everything you need on hand. Excellent to have a washing machine & tumble dryer. Owner has a well stocked veg garden and supplies various fresh veg (marrows were amazing). Lovely heated pool, private back garden is an evening sun trap. Lovely outside eating area. Good traditional charcoal BBQ provided.
An excellent base for anyone wanting to go cycling - we did some great routes in France and also into Belgium.

Beautifully renovated farmhouse in gently rolling French countryside. Ideal for families.
An extremely well appointed three-bedroom farm conversion in lovely countryside. The property is within easy reach of Calais and The small town of Avesnes-sur-Helpe is a short drive away with everything one might need. The owners live next door and are very helpful and welcoming. We were there in the winter, but it was warm and cosy with a modern wood stove. Thierry has done a fine job of converting the property to a very high standard, both in decor and equipment (hi-tech appliance fans will be in heaven!). We could see that in summer it would be a lovely place for families with children as there are lots of out-door areas for eating and playing, but even in the heart of winter the views across the fields are lovely and the steeple of the church in Avesnes can be seen in the distance. It's about an hour to the historic Belgian city of Mons and there are plenty of other day trips to go on (the Matisse gallery in Le Cateau-Cambresis is well worth a visit). Overall an excellent choice for up to six people - though anyone over five and a half feet tall needs to aware of the low beams upstairs!

Great gite, great hosts.
We were given a warm welcome by Thierry and knew that he was there if we had any questions (one or two) or problems (none) during our stay. The gite is very comfortable with all mod cons. We loved the kitchen garden and were lucky enough to enjoy tomatoes, cucumbers, a yellow courgette, radishes and many herbs during our stay. The location was good, lovely countryside and a short drive to nearby shops which had everything we wanted. We visited Chimay in Belgium during our stay too. We were not blessed with the best weather but still enjoyed the outdoor pool and had several barbecues, we also made use of the table tennis table and Netflix on the TV!
