Guestbook for La Chauviniere
We had a splendid and relaxing time at this marvelous house. Thank you for creating such a lovely setting. W. Haas, George Moeschlin, N.Y.
It was such a privilege to stay in your lovely house, appointed with such excellent detail and comfort, grounds a feast for the eyes. All in all a magnificent experience that I will treasure. Carole Hildebeard, Philadelphia La Chauviniere has exceeded my best expectations. House and grounds are beautiful, tasteful and while perfectly planned, succeed in being natural and unprententious. A wonderful, relaxing 6 weeks respite. George Doan, Palm springs.
I appreciate the grand old beauty and charm, as well as the comfort and style; Lois Brown US
