Guestbook
. What a lovely place to recharge the batteries after a busy 2weeks prior to our arrival in France.We have really enjoyed our stay, another week would have been great. Kath and Martin were there when we needed anything and we appreciated their hospitality and friendship. Hope they can visit us in Australia in the not too distant future. Hopefully we can continue our friendship over the ocean. Glenys and Graham. Australia. May 2007.
We've had a fantastic three weeks relaxing at the gite and exploring the surrounding area and feel very lucky to have been able to stay so long. Thank you to Kath and Martin for their hospitality and kindness- we've had a truly wonderful holiday and will definitely be back. Jody and Howard. June 2007.
We had a fantastic 2 weeks and really recharged the batteries and had some fantastic days out.

Thank you for making this much needed holiday a very relaxing one. Emma and Leon. July 2007.

We've had a great time here.... very sunny and warm nearly every day for our two weeks. A great place to stay near Lac du Chambon, Gargilesse [ nice kids play area near the river] Medieval St Benault du Sault with it's old winding streets. Been on a lot of bike rides locally and hired a canoe and paddled down the river. A lovely relaxing holiday in the best equipped gite we have seen, Thanks Kath and Martin. The Morris family.
