    Very nice and clean gite, with everything there you could think about that you need during your stay.
    Going from towels, lots of dishes, cups, cooking pots, over dishwasher and washing machine, BBQ to board games.
    Outside there is the big and warm swimming pool which is maintained daily by Steve, petanque, pingpong and the Gym.
    So one could just stay in and around the gite all day. It is nice and calm in the middle of nowhere between the sunflowers, but at the other hand some smaller villages and cities are available on acceptable distance where shopping, visits, canoe and climbing in the trees are possible.
    So thanks a lot Catherine and Steve for the nice stay and your recommendations.

    Très beau gîte, propre, fonctionnel et spacieux.
    Emplacement au calme, face aux champs de tournesol.
    Beaucoup d'équipements, le paradis pour les enfants. La piscine chauffée et la salle de sports / salle de jeux sont un vrai plus.
    Enfin, Steve et Catherine sont aux petits soins et très sympathiques.
