Agréable séjour
La bergerie est un gîte de caractère, plutôt agréable. Vaisselle très propre, un peu sobre cependant: il serait judicieux d'ajouter une marmite. C'est là le seul bémol.

Tres jolie maison, tres bien aménagée. Belle salle d eau, grandes chambres dans un environnement au calme, ideal pour se reposer. Cuisine bien équipée. Petit bémol sur le confort canapé et fauteuil qui sont jolis mais pas confortables du tout. Le terrain est grand et cela doit etre tres agréable l été de pouvoir manger dehors.

La petite maison dans la prairie
Cette bergerie est un endroit très calme et reposant. La chambre du bas convient parfaitement aux enfants, voire personnes âgées. Les petits pourront s'en donner à coeur joie dans ce grand espace ouvert sur la nature. Une petite ile dans un océan de verdure
