Last minute trip to Flanders
We booked our trip the day before as a last minute break. Sabine is a wonderful host who made us feel very welcome and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. The gite is very close to the Belgian border and we visited several historic sites as well as a brewery tour. Would highly recommend as a base for anyone wishing to explore Passchendale, Ypres and other WW1 places of interest. Thank you Sabine, we very much enjoyed our stay.

Best Gite in Northern France
We were looking to find a nice little village to stay in with easy access to northern France and Belgium. What we found was a great Gite with a wonderful host who was very attentive to our needs and made us feel quite at home. The Gite had plenty of room for us, everything we needed (we found not having a TV was in fact a bonus), and a lovely garden to relax in. Sabine gave us helpful advice on what to visit, how best to get there and assisted us across the language barriers (she speaks English much better than we speak French!). We loved our stay and could not have asked for a better combination of location, comfort and host.

Perfect Stay in a Perfect French Village
Sabine is a fabulous host and so friendly. We arrived after a long motorcycle ride and immediately felt at home. The gite is beautiful and has everything you could ever need for your stay. Although situated in the middle of a lovely village, it is so quiet and we sat outside in the sunshine on an evening listening to the birds. We have just returned from a two week adventure around Europe visiting six countries and our stay here was a highlight of our entire trip. Thank you Sabine and we will definately be staying again but for longer!

Wish it had been longer.....
This is a beautifully converted Presbytery and it has everything you need for rest and relaxation. The outside space is an oasis of calm and the accommodation is very comfortable and well equipped. We received a very warm welcome - we stayed here as a one night stop over on our way to the Ardenne region in our faithful Morris Minor and there was ample safe and very secure parking for the car. We would very much like to have stayed in this beautiful retreat for longer to explore the unspoilt French - Belgian border and so we will definitely return. A super local shop has fresh croissants and bread - just heaven for breakfast! Thank you

Beautiful area and very quiet. The property was very spacious and light. Good information on what to do in the area. Sabine was most amiable and friendly. Unfortunately, we kept hitting our heads on the low beams, in bathroom and bedroom. We did not like the only toilet being downstairs, without hand basin.

Beautiful, cosy and soooooo..... French!
Sabine is such a warm and welcoming host. She was a mine of information regarding the local area The apartment had everything we needed for a short stay, with free parking on site. The decor is gorgeous and the garden so atmospheric. The village is lovely and quiet but with a SUPERB supermarket just 2 minutes from the apartment. Very conveniently located to explore the local area. Highly recommend.

Fantastic location to visit both France and Belgium
Sabine was really helpful, found out local information for us, made sure that we had sufficient coffee, tea, etc. The gite was well kitted out, we cooked on a few evenings, and ate out also. The bedroom is well laid out, good shower in the ensuite. The garden is a nice quiet space.

Excellent accommodation and host
Sabine was most welcoming and nothing was too much trouble for her. The cottage sits within in a beautiful town and is ideal for getting to the Port at Dunkirk. The cottage decor and furnishings is to a very high standard with everything that we needed to ensure that our stay was comfortable. Luxury accommodation at an affordable price.

La propriétaire de ce gîte est exceptionnelle. Toutes les adresses qu'elle m'a conseillé nous ont permis de passer un weekend formidable ❤️ Une fois que vous rentrez de l'espace qui vous est complètement dédié, c'est comme si vous entriez dans un havre de paix. Le jardin est apaisant, très bien entretenu, décoré avec goût et tous les équipements sont propices à la détente et au confort. En ce qui concerne le logement en lui même, tout y est, vous n'avez besoin de penser à rien. La décoration est sobre et élégante. C'est l'endroit idéal pour se ressourcer ❤️
