    Simply everything. The whole property has so many great details, a perfect garden to relax, a nice pool with a great view....and the owner is a super nice guy. I wish we'd stayed more than one night.

    the place is modestly luxurious given its surroundings. A real treat after 3 weeks of budget travelling. The owner is a very nice French gentleman whose personality and company are quite enjoyable. Definitely worth all the money spent
