    Hubert was a lovely man, very accommodating. We took a day trip to Paris and he went out of his way to give us a lift to the station. The property was beautiful and surrounded by history. We stayed in the 2 bedroom house. Beds were comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed for a short stay.

    Nothing for us (but be aware of loft ladder-like steps if you stay with young children).

    The location was amazing and was right on the edge of the Hortillonnages (the floating gardens of Amiens). The property allowed us to borrow a boat and row through the small canals of the Hortillonnages which was great fun and a lovely experience if you like gardens! You can walk (or cycle, bikes can be borrowed) along the River Somme into Amiens which was a beautiful walk. We visited the Cathedral which is a UNESCO world heritage site and a stunning gothic building. The small house we stayed in was full of character and very quirky - great for a family with older kids (the stairs are like a loft ladder) surrounded by beautiful gardens. The host was very friendly and helpful. We were able to speak some French, but he did speak in English when we got stuck which was very helpful at times!

    The only thing we didn’t like was the stairs in the Little House- there was a banister but no side to the stairs making it a little dangerous for children. But it’s not a problem if the children stay downstairs (there is only a bed upstairs anyway so no need for them to venture up there!) We loved the property and everything else was perfect.

    It was a beautiful property and we were made to feel very welcome by Hubert. We had use of the gardens which were beautiful, and we were able to use the boat and bikes too. Hubert gave us lots of information about the local area and we enjoyed a lovely walk along the Somme into Amien.

    The stairs to the loft bedroom were very steep and open. These could be dangerous for both young children and elderly guests.

    Modern, well appointed apartment in a quiet location. The communication prior to arrival was good, and Hubert was very welcoming and friendly. Although we did not make use of them we had access to boats and bikes. The apartment itself had everything needed, and was very clean and comfortable. Use of the washing machine and tumble drier was much appreciated.

    Nothing. It was perfect, and the perfect way to end our travels in France.

    Everything. The communication with Hubert and his daughter, Anastasia, set us up for a wonderful stay. The property in its entirety is beautiful. Bordered by the Hortillonnages which can be explored by boat, the house itself is equipped with everything you need. The decor is delightful, with curious antiques and beautiful artwork throughout. The location is excellent- a comfortable stroll away from the city centre where you will find wonderful restaurants and the extraordinary cathedral.

    The location is superb and Huber offered us his canoe and rowing boat to explore the canals. It was so relaxing sitting in the beautiful garden next to the canal, listening to the birds and watching the various shades of light as the sun moved in and out behind the clouds which made me appreciate impressionist art. We loved the accommodation and Huber, our host was so hospitable making us feel very welcome. Can’t wait to visit again one day.
