Peaceful, quiet location
Peaceful location with very easy access to the forest for dog walking. Comfortable beds with one downstairs bedroom, and three beds upstairs. One upstairs bedroom (with 1 double bed) is accessed through the other (with 2 double beds) with a door in between, which was perfectly OK for us, but something to be aware of if you are friends who are not as familiar with one another.
Bathroom and separate toilet are downstairs. Kitchen is small, but has everything we needed for over a week's stay, with plenty of cutlery and crockery and a big fridge/freezer.
Julia and Phillipe were lovely hosts. Phillipe popped round every now and again to check on the water in the spa - good to know the safety of the water quality is monitored. He was fabulous with my large, enthusiastic dog, and despite what he says his English is pretty good! Better than my still- developing French.
We were visiting friends in the nearby village of La Petite-Pierre and I found I could walk there in around 1 hour through the forest along part of the route of one of the long distance trails. If you plan to do any walking, I recommend downloading one of the walking apps (eg Outdooractive/Alltrails) so you can track where you are and not get lost!
I found the best place to take the dog on the morning walk was up past the town hall and children's playground, continuing straight up when the road bears round to the right, you are very soon in the forest with miles of tracks. I hardly saw anyone on my daily walks.
