Beautiful villa! Highly recommend.
Spent a wonderful week here. House was beautiful. Very well equipped. Kids loved the pool and the garden. The layout was great, particularly the outside. Would happily return.

Lovely property other than the hot water system not working in the evenings throughout the stay
When I politely suggested to the owner that a reasonable refund was due because the failing hot water system was not working properly I received an offensive reply. This was full of false accusations regarding the state the house was left ( we left it in an entirely reasonable state). This included a statement that we had urinated in the shower ! We were a family party of three professional adult couples. Furthermore money was docked from our deposit for extra cleaning. Quite extraordinary behaviour, and I have received no reply to my letter to them complaining of the way they treated us. By the way, I wrote to Homeaway at least a week ago about this situation and have heard nothing from them either. All rather disappointing.

Un moment de quiĆ©tude absolu dans cette belle maison bien situĆ©e en pleine campagne vallonĆ©e et verdoyante. 4 chambres dont 2 trĆØs confortables. La cuisine est bien Ć©quipĆ©e, manque peut-ĆŖtre quelques accessoires de cuisine. La piscine est remarquable, c'est un vrai plus. L'accueil est cordial et sympathique. Nous recommandons !!
