Maison d hotes et Chambre d hotes de Charme0

What struck me most, beside the hands-on attention we received from Helene and Jean were all the value-added details which we had never encountered before - such as detailed tour maps with personal recommendations and explanations, reservations Helene would make for us any where, courtesy cocktail hour each day, phenomenal library on Gascogne to peruse, lush premises with rose garden next to lovely lounging chairs, and on and on.

Honestly can not think of a thing.

The guest house is ideally located on the outskirts of Condom, about 5mn away by car. Upon arrival we were cordially greeted by Helene and Jean, the owners of the property. They are both very passionate about what they are doing and they made sure that every little detail was taken care of during our stay. The room was on two levels, very clean and spacious, with free wi-fi which is always appreciated. The guest house is entirely renovated and it is an amazing feeling to stay in a property with such history while being in total comfort. We started every morning with a gigantic breakfast that included a wide selection of items: the legendary pancakes prepared by Jean, fresh baguette toast, delicious jams (the one made from local melons and spices was our favorite), French toast with a local twist, freshly baked croissants, cheeses, ham, etc... After this Helene made sure to send us prepared to explore the surroundings and provided us with a different itinerary and things to do / see every day. During the day we would have lunch in one of the restaurants recommended by Helene and in the evening we would buy a few local products from the nearby supermarkets and enjoy dinner at the property. A friendly aperitif between all the guests and the owners would be held every day at 6:30pm and added a very personal touch to the stay as we were also able to get to know interesting people from different horizons and nationalities. One fact worth mentioning: Helene's family owns the Domaine de Millet which is located about 30mn from the guest house, and we also went there to visit the place. Helene's sister is very nice too and she gave us great advice regarding the different types of wines and Armagnac that they are producing, after enjoying a tasting session of course! Overall our stay was amazing and we would definitely recommend the guest house run by Helene and Jean to anyone who is looking at exploring the Gers area. Thanks again and hope to be back soon!

Nothing really, we wished to have stayed longer!

This really is hospitality at its best. It feels like home from home. Hélene and Jean provide a warm Gascon welcome to their beautiful home. The home is very well set up for visitors with plenty of water and tea and coffee making facilities. You can use fridges to store food and make simple food. The grounds are beautiful and there are wonderful books to peruse in the beautiful long salon. Dinner is a stunning affair around a great table with delicious home-cooked and home-grown food. Breakfast is delicious too and there is plenty of it. So you don't really need to worry about lunch. Hélene provides the best local insights for tourists and takes great pleasure in helping you to plan your perfect day. I left wishing I could have stayed longer.

I wished I could have stayed longer.

A spectacular vision upon arrival greeted us at the end of a wonderful curving road beyond the gates! Breath taking house and garden. The bed in particular one of the most comfortable we have both ever slept on. The hosts Helene and Jean make you feel at home and are very friendly and approachable. On our trip this time we stayed in four different places and hotels/accommodations and this was for both of us by far the best. Hopefully we shall return to the area in the near future and we will definitely stay here again!

All was good

A fantastic gem of a B&B. Hélène and Jean were great hosts. Hélène gave us some great recommendations for dinner and for places to visit the following day. The breakfast was superb. The room was magnificent, reflecting the style and historic context of this wonderful house. Huge and very comfortable bed with a lovely garden view.

Nothing to fault about the experience.

A truly beautiful vista welcomes you as you emerge through the tree lined avenue onto the drive. Typically French in appearance the welcome from Hélène was warm, inviting and genuine.The property itself, the accommodation and the gardens are truly exceptional.

The property was just about perfect.

This place is absolutely amazing! The hospitality of the owners is outstanding. We love everything about this place:  the room, very comfortable bed, delicious breakfast, and incredible hospitality of the owners.  Will highly recommend this place and will definitely come again. Thank you for having us over in your beautiful home.

We stayed only two nights(((

The property is beautiful and in the heart of a lovely big garden which has been planted with gorgeous flowers. The room was really spacious and very clean . Hélène and Jean are exceptional hosts, so welcoming and knowledgeable about the area and willing to spend time explaining the local sites of interest. The breakfast was superb .. amazing pancakes and jams made with local fruits . Not to mention the pre dinner drink with wine and floc from the family vineyard . The “voie verte” runs through the grounds for cyclists or walking, very well maintained and perfect for discovering the local villages without being on main roads. A wonderful stay !

Nothing !

A beautiful property and surroundings set in the countryside with plenty of space to relax both inside and out. A guest kitchen area is also available supplied with tea coffee etc. Helene is an excellent host providing excellent recommendations for exploring the area. Breakfast is fab.

We loved our stay . Such a beautiful property!! Helene and Jean are very welcoming and friendly and extremely helpful and accommodating. The property is very central and convenient. Breakfast was delicious..!! We highly recommend and look forward to staying again.
