Comments
We
have not ventured far from the gite as we have had all we needed here
to entertain us. Day trips to Cognac and Martell and Aulnay market were
all enjoyable. Bastille day was FAB, thanks for inviting us to
the celebrations. We would love to come back.

Thank
you Nick and Chania for making us feel so welcome at La Foye. You have
a wonderful set up. After a couple of weeks sightseeing and exploring
we spent a relaxing week at the pool, just exactly what we
needed. We really enjoyed the BBQ, it is a great way to get to
know your neighbours. Hope to return sometime soon.

Dear
Nick and Chania, thank you for an amazing week. We all had a lovely
time. Harry (9 yrs) asked whether we could come again next year. I love
the peace and rural location but there was still enough “action” for
the kids especially with other children staying in your gites. Thank
you for a really special holiday.

Thank
you Nick and Chania for making every so perfect. We all had a wonderful
time, enjoyed lots of sunshine and made new friends. The BBQ and paella
nights were great fun. Lots to see and do locally as well as beautiful
beaches not too far away.

Thank you for your
hospitality, everything was perfect! This is a very spacious & pleasant 1
bedroom gite. The swimming pool is great, and all the facilities are very good.
Nothing is missing! Thanks again.

The accommodation is
faultless, the hospitality from Nick & Chania was absolutely charming and
their knowledge was of great interest, especially our chats at the legendry
BBQ's which is a great time for everyone to meet..... Without hesitation we would recommend Le
Manoir de La Foye to everyone in the highest regards.
Paul,
Sandra, Holly & Aaimee. August 2009We
arrived to discover that Le Manoir de la Foye is in fact better than
the website indicates! Our gîte was very well equipped with absolutely
everything you could think you need - even down to the high chair -
thank you. The Salle du Jour provides great amusement and information
as good as any Office du Tourisme. The grounds and pool area are so
well kept that it is a pleasure just to sit and soak it all in.

We
came back!! Of Course! Thank you Nick and Chania for yet
another
fabulous 2 weeks with you at La Foye. Please can we come back? We
enjoyed being here so much, swimming, badminton, Monopoly, ping pong
and boules that we didn't have much time for sight seeing this time!!
The inter gîte BBQ is a great idea! What a super place you have here.
Thank you!
