A Little Corner of Heaven
Didn't think it was possible to find somewhere better than the gite we had just left. Lots of thought put into equipping the cottage. Good quality comfortable beds and sofas. The private lake setting was sublime. So many bird calls to identify and even saw a coypu taking his evening swim. Totally relaxing. Away from it all but just 6 minutes drive to the village.
