To help you make the most of your stay, we've put our house rules at your disposal.

The guest house is a private place, reserved for adults only.
The hostess welcomes you into her home. There may also be other travellers under the same roof.
That's why we invite you to make the most of all the living spaces at your disposal, in a friendly atmosphere that respects everyone's privacy.
We provide rooms with double beds (or single beds, on request before your arrival), en-suite bathrooms and WCs, furniture and works of art.
For everyone's comfort and peace of mind, we do not welcome children or pets (although we love them).
