I cannot praise La Maison du Frene highly enough. The owner Thierry was away during our stay but his sister in law looked after us like family.

Staying here is like staying in... more

Just returned before the beginning of the summer high tourist season. Fantastic b&b just outside the city walls. On a small plaza tucked quietly one block from the hustle of the new town and one of the main portals to the walled city. Richly decorated with colorful eclectic and whimsical art, the whole house makes you feel at home. Our... more
