Un excellent séjour
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans la maison très confortable de Nicole et Marcel. Nos hôtes nous ont accueillis de façon très chaleureuse, en portant une grande attention à notre confort. Nous avons eu beaucoup de plaisir à échanger avec eux, notamment sur la région qu'ils connaissent depuis bien longtemps et que nous découvrions. Au-delà de l'escalade (qui nous motivait initialement), beaucoup de randonnées sont accessibles à proximité dans des paysages grandioses. Une destination à recommander.
