Guestbook for Maison de Belle
A poet would call it a rural idyll. To awake of a morning, not to the sound of an alarm or commuter traffic, but to bird song, cockerel and a distant dog.... bliss. We now return to the UK with the dreaded M25. We will return.
We enjoyed a very relaxing, peaceful week at Montcocu. Magic scenery, wonderful weather, a very very nice way to finish our holiday in France.
Beautiful area, visited lots of interesting places, including a trip to Rocamadour. Highly recommend restaurant Les Moulins Noyes at the Lac du Chambon, good food, wonderful scenery.
A lovely sunny warm fortnight, we breakfasted on the patio almost every morning and some days the temperature reached 32 degrees! Had a quiet relaxing holiday and enjoyed the birdsong.
Thank you for a lovely relaxing stay, the scenery is gorgeous and so peaceful, we have thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We shall be recommending both the house and this gorgeous part of France to all our friends and family.
