Guest comments
"I can hardly believe that our stay at La Bergerie is over. We LOVED the house! You have outfitted it with every imaginable thing that we could have needed. It was perfectly furnished and the extra toys were super".
"The house managers were excellent. The house was a perfect layout for us with 2 families staying - we were able to have separate areas upstairs so we never felt on top of each other or having fights for the bathroom. The pool was excellent - having a shower/toilet, fridge by the pool was great and saved having to go back to the house frequently"
