| Guestbook: See website our livre d'Or. "Thank you for your warm hospitality and marvelous cuisine. Your house is a jewel, with character and a soul of its own... a real haven. We leave with regret, but relaxed and refreshed (and exceedingly well fed!)" "Great hospitality, warmth + meals: this was far better than a downtown hotel. Thanks very much" "Everything is not always what you expect. This short stay has been exceptional. All that was promised we found, and more. To find an ambiance, the art, ceramics, to which we related utterly was a splendid and unexpected bonus. How many of us have written "we shall return!"? This time it is more likely to ring true. We were sorry not to meet Monsieur but Madame was a splendid solo. Many thanks." And many more in many more languages... |
