9/10 ExcellentNous avons passé un très bon week-end prolongé à l'occasion d'un anniversaire familial à 14 personnes (enfants et adultes de tous âges confondus 2 petits chiens avec nous). Le gîte est très agréable, entouré de nature et au calme.La communication avec les propriétaires est fluide et rapide. La proximité avec la Chaise-Dieu et sa magnifique abbaye ainsi qu'avec des villages pittoresques comme Allègre ou encore Brioude permet de visiter et de découvrir facilement la région.
