Guest comments
During the past few weeks since the gite has been finished we have had several guest stay on their way south, and we are glad to say they all did not want to leave! One family rang when they returned home to say they would love to stay next year, very good news for us. Guest comments

We had the most wonderful time staying with you, the gite and its surroundings are both beautiful.
The gite itself has been skilfully and lovingly renovated and with every attention to detail. We were very comfortable and extremely happy staying with you and it was great having you nearby to tell us about the area and we appreciated your friendliness.
The children loved saying hello to all the animals and exploring the grounds. We fell in love with the whole area, and had a magical evening out in Sainte Suzanne and a delicious meal, but we equally enjoyed sitting on the terrace and eating our breakfast looking at the beautiful view from the gite. We want to come back next year, please?!

Owner profile


About the owner
We moved here last year with our horses and dogs for a more tranquil, slower pace of life. Since then we havent stopped! so much to do and see, we are thoroughly enjoying ourselves. The gite has just been finished and seems to be a great success, even booked for next year by a family who stayed on their way to the south and didn't want to leave, very good news for us. We have also introduced a small kennels and cattery within our property with boarding as part of the family for others pets, which we did in England for many years, and the odd litter of jack russel cross pups. We inherited with the property 2 old moutons and in the pond a friendly turtle (turtolino) Everyone seems to be very happy here!!

Why the owner chose a home in this location
We bought our property 2 years ago but did not move here permanently till last summer. The countryside is beautiful and we have 8 acres and a lovely property, 2 houses, barns, pond, swimming pool all in a courtyard with panoramic views of surounding villages and countryside, what more could anyone ask for! But still only 5 minutes from major routes. The Mayenne is in easy reach of main ports, Paris, the Loire river, Atlantic coast, with many historic features.

Unique benefits of the property
We enjoy horse riding, cycling, walking, horse racing and motor racing and many other activities, all within 30 minutes of our home.
