Rose Cottage is located in a quiet hamlet, surrounded by beautiful countryside and a nature reserve only a short walk down the lane, with a private courtyard and a large private garden with a pool. There are plenty of places to sit outside and relax to enjoy the tranquil surroundings, with total privacy, yet the English owners Sally and Dave nearby if you need any assistance with anything at all. Nothing is too much trouble for Sally and Dave, they are there to help you with anything you need. We stayed in the cottage for a few weeks and the cottage is as suitable for longer stays as it is for short breaks and holidays. The gite itself is really comfortable, extremely clean and well equipped with everything you may need. The welcome meal prepared by Sally was delicious and a real point of difference in comparison to other gites we have hired over the years. If you are driving a long distance, it is a real treat to have a meal cooked for you when you arrive and takes the stress away of preparing a meal on the first evening. This is a place to really get away from it all in lovely rural France and is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

We stumbled across rose cottage as a last minute booking for myself and our family. Booking was straight forward and professional,we received confirmation emails and contracts through the post and excellent communication from the owners throughout. We arrived 3 hours before check in time and were made welcome into the gite. Sally (the owner) made us a beautiful welcome meal with salad, cheese and bread, homemade burgers, pizza and crumble. All which were delicious and welcomed after an 11 hour journey. The gite has all the essentials like coffee, tea and sugar and with local shops less than a 2 minute drive away it's so easy to restock if you do need anything. The gite is spacious and tastefully decorated with 3 outdoor areas which are all kept beautifully and very safe for children. We all enjoyed the heated above ground pool,and inflatables were provided which gave the children hours of fun and saved us a fortune! It's great to have English owners next door and gives a real sense of comfort having familiar faces on the doorstep should you need anything. The beds are comfortable and the cottage was clean and tidy with all cleaning products provided should you need them. All in all it was a fantastic week, and we couldn't find no fault. Location is rural but with a car it's completely accessible and you can't put a price on peace and quiet! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.
