10/10
Five adult family members and my adult niece stayed comfortably in this amazing architectural masterpiece. The home is as pictured and so much more! It is ideal for large (I would say adult) groups but I would easily return with my husband alone, given its romance. The kitchen has every appliance you can think of from espresso maker to blenders. It's a chef's delight. We were surprised to learn we were staying in a 16th century French hamlet! The hosts greeted us with a fire already burning in the fireplace and a bottle of local wine. Michel and Ludovic could not have been more attentive. We stayed here to easily access Yssingeaux (30 min/where our niece is studying). The curvy country roads take a bit to master but we day-tripped to Lyon (2 hours), Le Puy (30 minutes), and even ventured as far as (3.5 hours) Chamonix. It is a quiet place to return at the end of the day. I'm sure I could write a novel in this home--it enjoys views from every single window. In March, the birds were beginning to sing and the flowers and trees were starting to bud. It was warm enough to eat outside during the evenings and watch the sunset, and yet still enjoy the spectacular and modern wood burning fire in the living room every evening. You must walk the hamlet and discover the 500-year old bread-baking houses, the vista of the valley, and the thatched roof stone homes just steps from the expansive yards. I didn't want to leave. Thank you!
