The French House Reviews

Samantha

Beautiful, peaceful and stunning location! Would book again!

Susan

Beautiful cottage fantastic decor

Martine

Fabulous cottage , would definitely visit again

Peter

Well this cottage was fabulous. So warm and cosy with loads of room inside. Kitchen might be a bit tight to seat 6 but there were only two of us so it wasnt an issue .. certainly all the three bedrooms were really big with a lot of cupboard space. The two bathrooms were very warm and cosy and the showers really hot and powerful. Surrounded by lovel y countryside and very friendly people we had a wonderful few days there. Definitely recommend for a lovely short break.

Christopher

The company should make it clear in advertising that this was a wedding venue. We were grateful to be upgraded to the barn because of 2 weddings taking place during our stay. Some of the facilities in the house could have been better. Problems ranged from the quite serious scalding hot water to a range of more trivial things such as a difficult to navigate kitchen which was missing some basic items. The location was quiet & tranquil & the hot tub well maintained. We would book again.
