From the moment we got there it wasn't good. They didn't have rooms assigned. I didn't have a bed that fit me and I had to share the same bed with another person the same size as me, although we became good friends :) Double occupancy here means 1 bed.
The first couple of meals left something to be desired. Towards the end of the week after many suggestions the meals got a little better, but not what I thought a B&B in the French countryside in the summer should have. Carrots galore! One meal was a chicken leg and plain egg pasta...that's it! If you want coffee, you have to beg and almost feel bad about it because it's interrupting what they're doing....oh yeah and you have to pay for it...and everything you "order"
Then throughout the stay the manager or own would follow you around and yell if you didn't take your flip flops off or if you get the patio area next to the pool wet. It felt like having a mother watching over.
The yoga classes I was taking there were great, the company was great, the venue was anything but.

“Ou la la ! Wonderfull place but horrible stay”
5
people found this review helpful
Wonderfull place. Huge work done to built and maintain a wonderfull garden. The house is huge and nice. But the host (Luis) will ask you to take your shoes off any time you enter the house. He will be after you checking everything at all times. No relax time, allways talking. Rooms are ok in surface but very "lady" decorated. Hamam was cold the two times we tried it. Well I wont go back.
- Liked — the House
- Disliked — The owner !

“Outstanding Gay Resort”
1
person found this review helpful
Outstanding in everyway! Luis has worked wonders with this place from a excellent private courtyard to an enclosed pool and heated to just the right temperature.
I stayed for 2 nights if only it could have been longer, i was staying on my own so I lazy and had lunch and dinner here and everything was homemade and cooked fresh.
The rooms were french in style with excellent bathroom facilities and was very clean.
I shall be back with the boyfriend this time!
