Fairbank family review of La Grange du Moulin, August 2019, Papillon holiday cottage, children aged 8 and 5 years
A very nice week in a lovely part of France. The facilities here are great and the activities are very enjoyable. Chris and Wendy are excellent hosts, generous with their time and full of information. The honey visit was a particular highlight, especially the friendly dogs !
