About us
Conviviality, well-being and adaptable service
One of us comes from the Sarthe and the other from the Paris region, and we had been living with our children for several years in Changé, a commune where life is good, right next to Le Mans.
Every day we drove past this pretty house on our way to work, until the day the chance to buy it came along. We then brought to life the project we had long dreamed of: a welcoming, warm guest house.
For months we rethought its layout, its decoration and its services to make it feel even better, with comfortable accommodation to offer you a pleasant stay.
