In the living room there is a sofa bed that can be pulled out to sleep two people. Care has been taken to ensure good sleeping comfort by providing good mattresses. The beds are 160 by 200 centimeters and there are also two single mattresses. Bed linen should be brought by the guest. Since September 2021, fly screens have also been installed and an awning. There is everything in the kitchen for self-catering and dining. There is also a BBQ available.Know that in this small house the last century a family with 6 children lived together with sheep under the same roof.

    This cottage is decorated with so much care and attention that you will feel more than welcome. In the living room you can retreat with a book and there is a real houseplant! It therefore feels more like you are looking after someone's house than a vacation cottage. From the 'kitchen diner' you can look straight into the apple orchard through two sliding doors. We walked a lot, bakery and small supermarket within walking distance. It was a very nice week.

    A wonderful week we were able to stay in this beautiful cottage. Apart from the birds singing it is quiet. You look out over an apple orchard and the nights here are still really dark. If you lay in bed you could hear the tawny owl calling.

    We didn't find the loft where there are 2 mattresses very safe for 2 children. But the master bedroom was big enough to put one of the mattresses there, so we solved that problem that way!

    A nice, quiet place in the middle of a sea of green meadows. The cottage is fully equipped (and has a wonderful bed!). We had a great time there!

    The cottage is simply furnished, but has a certain charm and offers everything you need. Upon arrival, everything was neat and clean, which gave a pleasant start. The owner was also easily accessible and responded kindly and promptly to questions.The bathroom is very small though and the towel rack hangs a bit in the way, but these are rather small practical points.The biggest point of concern is the moisture problem. Mold was visible in the living room and the whole house felt a bit clammy. There is a dehumidifier available, but since the electricity consumption is charged to the tenant, we did not use it. For people who are sensitive to air quality, such as myself, this did have a negative impact on comfort and sleep.The cottage certainly has potential, and if the moisture problem is addressed in the future, this can be a very nice place to stay for those who love peace, simplicity and nature.Landlord's comment:In periods of heavy rain, the humidity can be high in the living room and that is why a dehumidifier is available.This can increase the living comfort. The average electricity cost is 1 to 2 euro/day.

    We stayed in this nature house for a week and especially enjoyed its beautiful, quiet location. The cottage is located along a small French road, in the middle of the green, with a few neighbors here and there, but still plenty of silence.
    There is a bit less privacy. For nature lovers this is a really nice place, we even heard dwarf owls, which was a rare and special experience.
