Great host
Jason was a great host, very helpful and friendly. The games barn is the best we’ve ever found, really good quality pool table, ping pong, fitness machines etc kept us all entertained. The house was exactly as described and the garden large, with good play equipment. Nice little village with great blue avarie and a bar.

We enjoyed our stay, spent mainly relaxing in the beautiful garden, chilling in the pool and helping with the chickens. Our impressionist painting lesson with a local artist was great. Jason and Alison helped with everything we asked.

Lovely location, warm and friendly host
Jason was very friendly and helpful. He recommended places to visit which turned out to be very good. If we had questions about anything he dealt with them straight away. The garden was nice to look at and the sound of the trees and little river were very relaxing. The pool was a good size for swimming and the surrounding area had plenty of sun beds and parasols for sitting in the sun. There was also inflatables to add to the fun! The house was located in a lovely location in a pretty village however there was more traffic than we expected to hear especially early in the mornings, though this didn’t affect our stay. Overall we had a relaxing time and a lovely holiday

Lovely, Well equipped house with fantastic outdoor space and facilities
We had a lovely 10 days here with our two children (6 & 1). They loved the pool, trampoline and games room and were never bored. Jason and Alison were great, listening to our daughter natter on and show off her new swimming skills! Nothing was too much trouble and they gave great advice about places to go. Although the village appears to be away from it all, we found plenty to do - lots of chateaus, cognac, pretty villages, and the two lakes nearby were great for swimming and beach fun. It was super hot whilst we were there (38degrees) which made it a little difficult to sleep at night - perhaps a couple of fans in the bedrooms. I’d also like a few more pillows, but that is a personal choice. Overall it was the best family holiday we have been on simply for the fact that there was so much for the kids to do there was never the pressure of hearing ‘i’m Bored!’ Thank you Jason and alison

Lovely holiday with great pool.
Jason and Alison couldn't have been kinder or more attentive hosts. They really tried hard to look after us. The house was well equipped and very clean and our children (2 girls aged 6 & 7) loved the large safe garden with trampoline. The pool was also lovely and perfect for our youngest who is just getting the grips with swimming as it has a good shallow end. It is shared with the B&B guests and also in the evening, the owners. Whilst you can walk to the baker in the village which is great (and it is very good), everything else is a bit of a drive so be prepared to travel if you want to explore. Overall we had a lovely holiday.

Petit Bijou in Saint Fraigne
Our family of seven had a most enjoyable stay at Petit Bijou. Our stay was 2 weeks long. We got a very warm welcome from Jason and Alison and throughout our stay they were very helpful in lots of different ways whether it was in answering any questions about the locality and what was to be seen or where we could have lunch. They even organised for us to share in the local communitys Bastille Day feast. At the property itself we had the use of bikes, a really well equipped games room, a large field (for throwing a rugby ball) and of course the pool - which was the big attraction for our 5 teenage boys. Only a 2 minute walk away is a tennis court which we used every evening once the temperatures had dropped and a stones throw away is a boulangerie which we visited every morning. While the property itself provided lots to entertain us we did venture to gokarting and a tree climbing park, both of which are just under an hour away. Decathlon and of course Intersport were located and visited more than once. Overall the holiday was exactly what we wanted and the property and its location was ideal.

zalige vakantie
Het huis ligt in een zeer rustig dorpje, maar fantastisch gelegen in de natuur. De woning zelf heeft ook een zeer grote tuin met veel groen, een beekje op het einde van de tuin, en alles wat je als gezin nodig hebt. Er is een bakker op wandelafstand, de supermarkt is 8min rijden met de wagen. De keuken is ook goed voorzien van keukengerief. Jason is een zeer goeie gastheer, zeer behulpzaam en vriendelijk. Wij hebben enorm genoten van onze vakantie daar, van de rust, de natuur, het leuke zwembad (met veel opblaasspeelgoed voor de kinderen). Kortom: een aanrader!

Le jardin est vraiment super. Les chambres sont spacieuses. Beaucoup de jeux pour les enfants, super velos..Les propriétaires sont très sympathiques. Quelques équipements sont vetustes, comme le frigo. Et des imprecisions dans l'annonce ( ex:pas.de seche linge, piscine non chauffée) Nous avons passé de bonnes vacances.

Un jardin pitoresque
Le jardin est vraiment magnifique. Il y a toutes les commodités essentielles pour de bonnes vacances. Le seul petit hic, c'est le manque d'isolation phonique dans chaque pièce. Les cloisons sont très fines et le parquet grince énormément. Si ce n'est ça, le propriétaire était très disponible et très sympathique. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié ce mignon petit village.

La parenthèse magique
Nous avons été très bien reçus. Le calme des environs et le jardin immense nous ont permis de passer un moment calme et de profiter ensemble de la piscine, des barbecue. Petit plus la salle de jeu pour adulte avec billard, baby-foot et table de ping pong et jeux extérieurs pour les enfants. Je recommande fortement cette location. Un grand merci aux propriétaires.
