Bravo pour Odile qui sait accueillir ses hôtes. Nous étions comme à la maison. Elle renseigne sur les visites à faire, ses petits déjeuners sont un vrai plaisir, il est sûr que c'est une adresse à retenir.

Endroit extrêmement agréable. Les chambres viennent d'être refaites et sont joliment redécorées au goût du jour. Odile nous accueille avec le sourire et sait nous mettre à l'aise. Bref, un endroit où il fait bon s'arrêter, se reposer et profiter!!
