    We stayed as a family of 3, and it was lovely to have such a wonderful host and comfortable lodging!

    We struggled a little bit with not having a car - it turns out that Uber and taxis are both very hard to come by - and although the location is a pleasant 10 or 15-minute walk to the center of town, we were less excited about the longer walk to and from the train station with luggage. Fortunately, Stefanie was very kind about accommodating an early check in and holding our bags after check-in until we were ready to depart.

    The family suite was clean, spacious, nicely decorated, and very comfortable. Stefanie and family were kind and super helpful. We especially enjoyed the garden and the breakfast.

    The caravan needs a bit of upkeep, but it was fine given that we are experienced at living in a caravan

    We were in the Gypsy caravan which was cute.

    For cyclists you do need to cycle a bit in the town to get there but the streets weren't busy. Although a washiing machine was listed on the facilities (we were a bit desperate to wash some clothes at this point) you don't have access to it yourselves. There is a charge of 10 euro and Stephanie would need to do it for you.

    This was a beautiful house with an extensive garden. We were met by Stephanie who was lovely and spoke excellent English. There was secure parking for our bike. The room was a good size and had a heated towel rail in the bathroom that was really helpful if you need to rinse out some clothes. It was about a 10 min walk into the town which was a wonderful historic town. Go to the tourist office and watch the video on how Pont L'Eveque cheese is made and pick up a leaflet to do your own walking tour . The breakfast at the house was incredibly good value for 10 euros. There was bread and croissants, cold meats and cheese as well as yoghurt and fruit. Overall highly recommend this place.

    The only reason I didn't give top marks for the bed is that I like a softer bed. However, I slept very well!

    There was nothing I didn’t like - everything met or exceeded expectations.

    I stayed one night in the Superior Double Room and everything was perfect. The room and shower were both spacious, very clean, and well equipped. The bed was especially comfortable, and I appreciated the reliable high-speed fiber internet. The house also has a beautiful garden - quiet and peaceful, ideal for relaxing. Stephanie, the owner, was extremely kind and welcoming, and her excellent English made communication easy. I didn’t get the chance to try the breakfast, so I can’t comment on that.

    We stayed in the gypsy caravan in the garden. It was lovely, situated amongst the apple and pear trees. The property is a short walk into the town where our Host recommended a superb restaurant. We will definitely stay here again and we would recommend it to anyone.
