It (Eiffel) was beautiful, very vast and relaxing, we even spotted deer. It was a very nice house, everything was there that we needed. Also super friendly owners, our children were even allowed to help in the garden. They had chickens, dogs and cats that provided the necessary entertainment. On arrival there was all kinds of goodies ready from the garden (and beyond) so that we did not have to go shopping immediately, which was very pleasant! There is also plenty of choice in the area to make a trip or enjoy a nice meal. It was tip top, we will return with great pleasure! General rating:10/10 www.nature.house
After a warm welcome from Gideon and Helen we enjoyed the very spotless, clean cottage ’Hugo’ with incredible panoramic views!!! The decoration was so tasteful and thoughtful with many original touches! There were even fresh tomatoes and Mirabelle plums from their own garden. The cottage is full of natural light from sunrise to sunset, you feel like in heaven!! Our ‘sejour’ in Bassinaud was sheer bliss! We were so sad to leave this slice of paradise and we highly recommend spending some time chez Gideon and Helen, who were the best hosts! 5* www.airbnb.co.uk
We had a great time in Hallyday where we felt at home. The place matched the photos and Bassinaud is a great place. Excellent welcome and communication with Gideon and Hélène who are lovely people. i highly recommend it! www.airbnb.co.uk
Excellent stay. If you are looking for calm and tranquillity this is the address you need. Very nice accommodation in the green. We came with a 1 month old baby and the host provided us with the necessary amenities. Nice touches on arrival. Very welcoming host with a sense of service. The only black dot we wanted to extend but it was full 😊I highly recommend it!!! (Piaf) www.airbnb.co.uk
