Lovely and relax break

Very quiet, rural, relote Gite with fantastic lakes facilities.Just the place to relax and wind down.Great host and amazing WiFi! When you need it.The Gite had not been used for a while and was dusty. It was also very hot, we had brought a fan, but some more would have been very useful.We would definitely go again, to escape the hustle and bustle of life.

Nous avons passé une semaine au calme avec nos "grands"petits enfants. C'était la canicule, nous avons apprécié la fraicheur de la maison et la proximité de l'étang. Nous avons également apprécié la gentillesse sans borne de notre hotesse. Merci Anne, pour votre accueil. Hélène

Zwei Wochen Ruhe und Entspannung

Wir haben in diesem Haus zu fünft gemeinsam mit unseren drei erwachsenen Kindern einen wunderschönen Sommerurlaub verlebt. Der Empfang durch unsere Gastgeberin war sehr freundlich, und auch während unseres Aufenthalts stand uns Anne bei Rückfragen hilfreich zur Seite. Die Unterkunft bot uns ausreichend Platz, die Betten waren gut, die Ausstattung ließ keine Wünsche offen - das betraf auch die Küche, die wir intensiv genutzt haben. Der Clou des Hauses ist die Lage direkt am See: Wir hatten drei "Faultier-Tage" eingelegt, an denen wir nichts unternommen haben - die begannen mit einem opulenten Frühstück unter dem Sonnenschirm im Garten, setzten sich dann fort mit Baden im See, Lesen und Entspannen am Seeufer und Ausfahrten mit dem Ruderboot. Abends haben wir den Holzkohlegrill genutzt und spät nachts vor dem Schlafengehen den unglaublich schönen Sternenhimmel bewundert. Es ist ein sehr stiller Ort. In Chantenay-Saint-Imbert gibt es einen exzellenten Bäcker und einen kleinen Supermarkt; etwas größer ist der in Dornes. Unsere Unternehmungen führten uns nach Nevers, Moulins, Souvigny und in etliche andere kleine Städte. Für wunderschöne Wanderungen sind wir mit dem Auto auch mal ein Stück weiter gefahren, was aber kein Problem ist, da die Region nicht überlaufen ist: zu den Vulkanen von Puy de Dome und in den Naturpark Morvan. Auch empfehlenswert: Eine Fahrradtour am Canal du Nivernais, Fahrradverleih bei Hello Velo in Châtillon en Bazois, direkt am Kanal. Fazit: Super!

Immersion dans la nature et le silence

Nous avons profité de la nature en nous promenant en barque sur l'étang jouxtant la maison ou en balade dans une vaste forêt de chênes avec pour fond sonore le seul chant des oiseaux. La maison bien agencée pourrait être la maison de famille, avec un feu de cheminée bien venu en cette période pluvieuse. Notre hôte a porté une attention bienveillante à notre bien-être.
