our vacation 20th - 27th June

Well, what can we say !! When we booked the gite online, we thought the gite was pretty then: but to see it in the flesh so to speak, we were gobsmacked. The gite was much much more prettier than on the website.

There are 3 gites to choose from so we chose La Glycine. From the exposed beams to the gorgeous mezzanine area and the beautifully tended gardens, the gite was a definite labour of love !! We found the gite to very clean and comfortable, we slept like logs!!! Also, trellis had been erected to provide privacy between the gites which were decorated with hanging baskets and climbers. We also loved the patio areas, lovely for relaxing with a glass of wine!!

The owners Teresa and Ian have thought of everything, not many owners would think of providing mozzy machines and universal plugs too. They definitely went the extra mile!!

From booking the gite online up to the evening before we were due to go home, we found Teresa and Ian very friendly and helpful, not in our way but there just in case we needed them.

The surrounding area was magical too, a walkers paradise, and the village was very pretty as was the river Don and the Don valley itself. The nearby village of Plesse is also pretty with a lovely lake area. Worth visiting.

We're definitely going back and would recommend the gite to anyone who wants to stay in a beautiful area in a beautiful gite-we couldn't have asked for more.
