We loved their spacious living area and kitchen which opens out onto the deck of their lovely private garden. The home is well-situated to take public transport into the centre of Nantes, which is a very nice city with lots to see and do. There are also many nice places in the region that are worth a visit. We found Brice and Caroline to be charming and helpful. Communication with them was really good, especially as they have excellent English. It was a pity however, that we weren't able to meet them! Peut etre une autre fois!
