Overpriced but good

The trails and the site were great but honestly overpriced. We got the loft next to the horse stable which was neat but other guests kept trying to come into our room, one person came in while we were sitting at the table, so we wished there was a clearer indication not to come in. If you dtay there definitely keep the door locked! When we got there there were A LOT of flies, both dead and alive inside which wasn't great. For 400$ a night we shouldn't have to clean before departing at the risk of getting charged a cleaning fee. This did not include any meals or the spa access. The trails were great and the location is beautiful, we just wish it would have been less pricey.We were there for a wedding, it is a very nice wedding venue but we won't go back on our own.

Maison bleue

La maison bleue centenaire est pleine de charme et possède de beaux grands espaces. Il n'y a toutefois qu'une SDB et une mini toilette au sous-sol, ce qui est peu pour un groupe. Il n'y a pas d'air climatisé et il n'y a pas de ventilateur, ce qui serait un bel ajout en temps de canicule!
