Un B&B tres agreable en cette fin d'hiver. Tres beau jardin, avec ferme, ecuries, jardin potager et verger. Tres bon accueil et un excellent couscous de merou et tres bon petit dejeuner. On a moins aime: les quelques cheveux sur les draps et dans la douche, pas de WiFi et 4G cahotique et la television du voisin bruyante.
