Your gite is the best we've stayed in, and you are the nicest, most hospitable and helpful hosts. The beautiful cottage is very spacious and comfortable with everything we need.
Many thanks for all your practical help and advice we loved the restaurants you recommended, as well as the wonderful dinner on our first night and "apero" on our last.
