    Un lieu de séjour sympathique en Bourgogne

    Nous avons séjourné 3 nuits chez Kate et Joel. Notre chambre "le petit écrin" est un mix entre une chambre d'hôte et un petit gîte, puisqu'il est possible d'y cuisiner. Le petit déjeuner très copieux, avec une excellente confiture de cerises, un cake maison et une baguette fraiche livrée tous les matins se prend individuellement en chambre. Il ne faut pas hésiter à solliciter Kate ou Joel pour toutes demandes complémentaires et des conseils de visite de la région. Nous ne l'avons que peu pratiqué car nous étions invités à une fête de famille.

    Un grand merci pour votre avis 5 étoiles !
    Nous sommes ravis que votre séjour chez nous vous ait plu et que vous ayez apprécié l'agencement du logement, nos confiture et cake faits « maison » ainsi que l'accueil que nous nous efforçons d'offrir à chacun de nos hôtes.
    Nous serions enchantés de vous accueillir à nouveau lors d'un prochain passage à Dracy le Fort peut-être dans notre autre logement « L'Echappée Belle » avec accès direct dans le parc et vue magnifique sur le Bois de la Chaume.
    Au plaisir de vous recevoir
