We had a really nice stay in this house in Vitry-aux-Loges. Everything was like we expected, based on the dialogue with the family before the exchange. They wanted us to have a nice stay and were very helpful. The sauna in the garden is wonderful! After the holidays, our own house was left in perfect condition. We warmly recommend an house exchange with Jocelyne and Christophe.
We had a wonderful time at the home of Jocelyn and Christophe, located in Vitry-aux-Loges, France. We actually were excited taking a new adventure in a small country village. The house was cozy and the large garden was great for our children to play at. Jocelyn and Christophe were really nice in all arrangements for our stay and even collected everything we needed for our youngest child. Through all our stay we had a good communications with them, we guided each other with all kind of things and they were really nice. We highly recommend staying at their little village country home, the environment and nature is really beautiful and it is charming to be located in the middle of a forrest. The lake nearby was also nice and good for sunbathing, playing and making good memories with the family. Also good to have short distance to larger towns / cities which we visited a lot too. When we left their house we focused on leaving everything clean and nice, and we also got our own house in that way too from them. Great to come home to our house in a clean and good condition. Our stay at this home was a wonderful time for our family, and leave us with a great memories from our staying in France. We can then for sure recommend this nice people to make an exchange with.
La maison correspondait à ce qui était annoncé. Nous avons vécu une magnifique expérience dans le village et avec les personnes qui y résidaient.
