Although we have been to Northern France on numerous occasions this was a first, and it did not disappoint. Large property accommodating our party of 3 adults and 3 children (9-14). Enough bedrooms for all and a well equipped kitchen and a large loungec dine with all the cutlery and glasses you could wish for. In the evening the large dining table doubled up for card and other games.
The pool was a clear winner with everyone enjoying the heated pool and the goodweather. we did not feel we had to go out much and took the opportunity to relax and enjoy the quiet surroundings and the peaceful location.
An added bonus was the homemade games that Francis had made along with the table-tennis, darts and table football, involving the whole family having several tournaments during our stay. As part of our trips to France we do enjoy the local bread and cheeses as well as wine. these became a staple of our stay but supplemented with the barbeque several times.
Our hosts were delightful, although our lack of French was evident, but using Google Translate we managed to converse.
If you are looking in this area for a gite, then this one is a must.
