“What can someone expect of a splendid holiday? A charmingly restored old Barn? A large swimming pool overlooking the valley on 3 sides? A nicely maintained lawn for sunbathing and badminton? Plenty of typical French villages nearby for the ‘aperitif’? Well, all of that we found at ‘Froumigue’ together wit the most friendly hosts + Monty (Labrador) Really a place to recommend!” Kristel and family (Belgium)
