Guest comments
'Your French home is absolutely beautiful, we were bowled over by the quality - and the view!' Simon K. 12.9.2006.
'Dear Louise and John, Thank you very much for the use of your beautiful home for our first holiday with our son. The house was not only amazing but also immaculate! We also loved the area and spent most mornings testing the village markets, your lists on the pin board were very helpful, (Peter thought he had died and gone to heaven when he realised he could get a take out pepperoni pizza). The baby supplies ie the cot, highchair, intercoms etc made for a very easy and restful holiday. As you said it really is a great place to just relax and take it easy....' Suzanne, Jake, Peter M July 2007
