What a lovely overnight stay we had at Au Gre du Sud. Communication during booking and pre-arrival was very smooth including very clear instructions for finding them as it is tucked well away in the countryside but still on the edge of the village. We chose to have dinner the evening of our stay and it was first class - a fresh salad, delicious fish and a choice of cheese or fruit. Excellent range of wines too - we tried a very good local red. The room was very comfortable, with tea and coffee facilities (not always to be assumed in France) and we enjoyed a light French breakfast of bread, home made jams and pastries the following morning. There is a big swimming pool and a spa pool which we didn’t use due to time. Thank you Jérôme (who looked after us from arrival to departure) and Boris who we didn’t have the chance to meet
