Our hostess Virginie was delightful and the cottage was simply perfect. It was beautifully constructed in Virginie's large and spacious garden. It feels comfortably separated from the main house and will soon have a wonderful hot tub on the deck. The interior is lovely with all the fine wood craftsmanship done by our host's husband. Every comfort had been thought of and it was a short walk to Barbizon's main street with lovely restaurants and 3 small but perfect galleries of the Barbizon painters. The village of Barbizon was stunning and the walk on into the forest at the end of the main street is stunning. A perfect location for our stay enroute to the south of France, we normally just head down the motorway, but we will certainly visit again next time we travel to France.
