Deborah from Amsterdam,
We hebben het heerlijk gehad in Gerda's Le Nid des Oiseaux - Le Marronnier. Mooie, rustige, schone plek en van alle gemakken voorzien. Grote, mooie tuin waar altijd wel een schaduwplek te vinden is. Het was erg heet in deze week, maar het is lekker koel in het huis. De locatie is perfect en we hebben de mooiste dorpjes en andere plekken gezien, allemaal in een straal van zo'n 90 minuten rijden. Het dorpje zelf heeft een bakker en een tabac en boodschappen kunnen gedaan worden in Thenon. Gerda is een geweldige gastvrouw en ook al waren we er relatief kort, we hebben er van genoten.
Cees en Christine from Maurik,
Wij hebben bijzonder genoten van ons verblijf in de eeuwenoude en sfeervolle gite "La Poste", mede door de ontvangst en de gastvrijheid van de zeer vriendelijke gastvrouw Gerda! Door het behoud van authentieke details (zoals muren, deuren en vloeren) en de smaakvolle inrichting lijkt het of je in een oud kasteel verblijft.
Het vakantiehuis is voorzien van alle comfort, biedt optimale privacy en heeft een prachtige groene tuin met zon en schaduwplekken. De bakker zit om de hoek, dus iedere ochtend (behalve maandag) heerlijk vers Frans brood bij het ontbijt. Voor de dagelijkse boodschappen per auto naar supermarkten in de omgeving.
Rustig dorpje, maar er is genoeg te doen in de omgeving. Laatste dag nog genoten van heel gezellige barbecue in de tuin met de andere Nederlandse en Franse gasten en Gerda. Komen heel graag weer terug!!!Marcel Vermeer from Zoeterwoude,
