Great location
We booked a short stay of 2nights on our way further south. Tim is a lovely host and talented artist, who’s there for you and for a nice conversation but respects your privacy. Large, spacious house. Lovely views! We enjoyed the surroundings, quiet location, not isolated, close to 2 great lakes for a walk with our dogs.

Joli coin de tranquilité
Le domaine est un havre de paix. Une vue magnifique, de quoi se ressourcer. Avec de magnifiques balades aux alentours. Le gîte est atypique et vraiment charmant, et M Riley un hôte discret et plein de bons conseils.

Utterly Beautiful
Just home from a months stay, and really wish we hadn’t had to leave. The converted barn is cosy, yet spacious, atmospheric, comfortable, and very beautiful, reflecting the eye and considerable artistic talent of its owner and creator, our kind and interesting host, Tim. Tim himself was lovely, the perfect mix of available and discrete, even going out of his way, when we enquired if we could come with our dogs, to fence an area to ensure an enclosed garden they could safely play in. Unbelievably kind, thank you. The outlook and surrounding area is indescribably beautiful, bucolic countryside of rolling green fields, punctuated with trees, and meandering rivers, your neighbours friendly cows, soaring birds of prey, and the occasional welcome sighting of the friendly free range village Mule we christened Maurice (French pronunciation of course) I have too many words to describe how wonderful our stay was and not enough room for all of them! We would thoroughly recommend, and hope to return soon.
