Reviewed Jul 8, 2026Un super accueil avec visite de la maison de la partie propriétaire. Nous avons eu la possibilité d'être sur classé par les propriétaire. Le repas du soir est pris à 100 m de la maison dans un restaurant italien où nous avons été servi avec professionnalisme et passion. Le petit déjeuner est copieux, diversifié et le tout dans la bonne humeur et le partage d'une maison d'hôte. Merci pour cette nuit passée en votre compagnie et pour tous les petits conseils apportés au moment du départ. Merci pour votre accueil chaleureux et professionnalisme.

Reviewed Apr 6, 2024Breakfast was fabulous, cooked to order with a super tasty fresh fruit bowl, fresh fig jam (made by our host Eddie) and fresh sourdough bread. Got us off to a great start. Location very convenient and villa itself was well designed and decorated (highlighting host Emma's creative flair) and exceeded our expectations in being able to both work there and spend time relaxing in its stunning grounds. Our hosts were both welcoming and informative and the dinner we had with them was most enjoyable.
