The property was beautifully maintained and centrally located in Amiens.

I stayed in what appeared to be the smallest of 3 rental apartments on the family estate. The landlord and his family were very pleasant and helpful. The apartment was well equipped with off-street parking. The sleeping area is in a central loft above the living space. I travel alone so it wasn't a problem for me. I left my suitcase on the ground floor which is the living area including the toilet shower room.

Awesome, beautiful and homely accommodation.

The location and layout of these beautiful accommodation was perfect for all our family who visited France for a specific purpose, to attend a 100 years commemoration for our great grandfather who died in the Battle of the Somme 16th September 1916. The Workshop we stayed in provided everything we required for our 6 family members. The setting and the grounds are beautifully maintained and we would certainly recommend this property to friends and family. A special mention of the immaculate grounds, huge apples on the trees by the workshop, flourishing vegetable gardens and the special pony roaming the property during our stay. If I was to ever return to France I would definitely return to this accommodation. We found supermarkets, a fuel station, a laundry shop, restaurants and a market in close proximity to our accommodation. I would also like to thank Anastasia for her patience and guidance in accommodating our family in the 4 houses.
