La Bonne Maison 3 - Maison d'hôtes

Pure merveille

Ras

The house is a wonderful old building, filled with period pieces and most attractive inside A spiral staircase up from the entrance / drawing room to our room which was equally glamorous with period furniture and a large en suite bathroom. Thoughtful touches - bath salts, a kettle and tea bags, lots of information and a map of Troyes . Additional bedding also provided ( it was warm so not needed) The location is so close to the town.!You cross the road and you are in old Troyes which is a lovely french town and a showcase of Champagne wines and other local produce. We travelled with our two labradors and Jerome was very welcoming to them ( and to us ) and is clearly a dog lover ( though there are cats on site ) Breakfast is at a shared table with other guests which was very interesting - fresh juice, baguette and jam, cheese, coffee. This is a lovely place from which to explore the area or - as we were - stopover en route to Morzine. Thank you Jerome

Not really a dislike as cannot be changed - but It is a bit tricky to unload at first glance, as the house fronts a main road and is on a junction, with a v narrow pavement. But we managed! There is a large front garden into which to unload bags Jerome then directed us to the secure parking which is a minutes walk away, so as I say, just know that you are in the right place when you see the sign on the front garden fence right next to the road

Un accueil théâtral de la part d'un charmant monsieur qui vous met "in vivo" à l'aise ,il vous donne avec un sourire ,un zeste d'humour démontrant une grande culture ,le tout avec une démarche heuristique affable ,un décor qui nous fait voyager dans le temps ,un chambre lumineuse superbement insonorisée ,une salle de bains spacieuse ,une facilité d'accès au centre de Troyes en quelques pas ,une place de parking ,certes éloignée ,mais sécurisante ,un petit déjeuner varié "alla francese" ou nous rencontrons des hôtes absolument charmants -A recommander sans hésiter

Location perfect

Sheets were amazing but towels needed renewing Cat on the breakfast table was a bit off putting even tho we were told cats were given free range
