Feedback

  • Communication was always easy with Vanessa and she was always available if we had a question. We appreciate that. We are thankful for the opportunity to stay at Vanessa and Mstthew's unique home. They have renovated it with love and you can feel like an noble family from years ago. In the fand drawing room, if you wish! But the home is also cosy and comfortable- we slept really well in the large beds, with no traffic noise. There are a few bakeries a suoermarket, Cafés and a few restaurants within easy walking distance. We advise having a car however as then you can really discover the area. Most places of interest we chose were 1 to 1,5 hours away, but there are some closer. Our favourite stops were Rennes Saturday food market and old town, and also the famous Mount Saint Micheal. Thank you so much for letting us be your first (solo) PLU guests!

  • We thoroughly enjoyed Vanessa and Matthew’s hospitality and company, not to mention their beautiful maison in Mayenne. The history of the house and surrounding area is fascinating and both Vanessa and Matt are so knowledgeable and keen to share the beauty and experience of living in France. We have made firm friends and look forward to hosting them in Australia in the New Year, À bientôt!
