Très beau gite très bien équipé
Nous avons beaucoup apprécié ce gîte très spacieux et hyper bien équipé. L'accueil était très sympa malgré le fait que nous avons été un peu en retard par rapport à ce que nous avions annoncé. Nous revenions, après 20ans, dans la région que nous avions fréquenté pendant de longues années pour nos vacances. Que de bons souvenirs!

Très beau gîte.
Gite très spacieux, très bien équipé, bien décoré dans le style montagnard. Petit bémol la table de la salle à manger trop près du mur et manque une télé dans la salle à manger, cuisine.

Chalet magique idéal pour un grand groupe
Impeccable! Le chalet est extrêmement propre, à faire pâlir de jalousie bien des hôtels. Il est décoré de façon raffinée, du bon goût et de la chaleur dans les moindres détails, surequipe, il n'y manque rien! Nous avons tout adoré, de la grande table pour manger tous ensemble, aux moments passés au coin du feu, aux chambres double permettant au couple d'avoir leur espace. Merci :)

Superbe maison à la montagne
Magnifique maison, spacieuse, bien aménagée et équipée. Nous avons passé un charmant weekend prolongé, en famille. La maison est adaptée à tous les âges. La localisation est très agréable, l'espace autour de la maison, la vue, la proximité de Seyne et des stations. L'endroit doit être aussi très agréable en été !
