wonderful quiet and peaceful
The house was lovely, great social areas for our family of 12.
We stayed at a time when it was very hot, so the bedrooms upstairs were incredibly hot and stuffy, one room could not be used as there was no window.
Location was great into Nort Sur Erdre, it is a small town with 2 supermarkets, a local market on a Friday.
There are no shops that you are able to walk to nearby, but some lovely walks around with great neighbours.
My spoken French is not great, but hopefully managed OK with the owner!
Need to take towels for the bathroom and pool and hand towels to use in the bathrooms, also needs hand wash or toilet soap in the bathrooms.
Ask about the Wi-Fi, it went down for 4 out of the 7 days we were there and we did not know where to reboot the system.
The pool was welcomed on the hot days, great for all of us, although the owner may want to consider marking the depth.
Also there is another Gite attached to this one, which we were unaware of.
With the location of the house there is a huge amount of flies (mouches), these are annoying and we bought a fly swatter and spray, we had to keep the doors closed but then the house was incredibly hot, so maybe the owner could put fly shields on the doors so you can open the doors and have air but not flies!
The house is well equipped with utensils, although there were no lids for the saucepan, need more tea towels, lid of the kettle was broken, gas rings on the cooker were blocked and needed to be cleaned and the bins need lids and need to advise about recycling.
It is a beautiful house but I do think that it needs a good clean and a little attention with small touches with matching bed linen, hand towels, hand wash, toilet paper in all bathrooms, air freshener in some of the rooms.
I would love to add a little chic to the house!
