Caution, Family (Booking review) - Maison Suzanne

"Émilie is a very thoughtful person ; she gave us all the necessary information for our arrival, which was really easy, and also gave us recommendations for sightseeing and restaurants in the area – excellent choices. The accommodation was perfect, clean and well-decorated. All the amenities were practical and practically brand new; we enjoyed a very pleasant stay."

Laura, Spanish Family (direct booking, Google review) - Maison Carmen

" This apartment was absolutely wonderful, warm, comfortable, beautifully decorated and perfectly equipped; nothing was missing . The host was charming and made sure we had a place to charge our car. It felt like we were in a boutique hotel, in the heart of a pretty little village! "

Pierre, Family (direct booking, text message) - Maison Suzanne

"Hello Emilie. Thank you for your message. It was a short but good night. It's been a long time since we've enjoyed such professionalism, cleanliness, and good taste. So, congratulations on the quality of this work , which is evident at every stage of the customer experience. And since it's a team effort, please also congratulate the gentleman for the same reasons, not forgetting Bastien, who has some excellent reading material that Capucine thoroughly enjoyed. Such professionalism is a real pleasure. "



Marie-Éve, Badminton Tournament Group (direct booking, Google reviews) - Maison Carmen

"The night spent at Carmen's house was fantastic. Everything is provided for the comfort of the guests, and the decor is magnificent, done with great taste. It's quiet, with an enclosed garden and sheltered parking ... plus a lovely terrace that's much appreciated on sunny days! Emilie is a very attentive, welcoming host who is always available to help guests; it's a real pleasure!"
BRAVO and THANK YOU for this beautiful, secluded and relaxing place => Le Clos d'Émilie!!!
Looking forward to seeing you again!

Lydia, English Family (Airbnb review) - Carmen House

We stopped for one night on our way down to Toulouse, and Emilie's place was perfect . Beautifully presented, very clean , and well-equipped. Emilie was an excellent host: very kind, welcoming, and helpful . She even offered to drive us back from the city if we needed it. Having the electric vehicle charging station available was really useful too . Thank you! 🌟

Ambroise, Overnight Stopover (Booking review) - Maison Suzanne

"Emilie was incredibly welcoming. I was able to park my car under the covered area. She had thoughtfully heated the accommodation before my arrival, and the place is very quiet and tastefully decorated. The bedding is comfortable. Don't hesitate, given the excellent value for money and Emilie's kindness ."



Pauline, Family (Airbnb) - Suzanne's House

"The cottage is very clean, which is really nice. It's perfect for a stopover on the holiday route because it has everything you need : sheets, bath towels, kitchen towels and even shower gel/shampoo, cotton balls...an address to remember."
The plus: air conditioning .

Antoine, Couple (Airbnb) - Suzanne's House

"We had a great night , your accommodation is very cozy and the breakfast was excellent ! My wife loved the chia pudding, would you happen to have the recipe? Have a good Sunday."

Corinne, Grandparents with grandchildren (Booking) - Maison Suzanne

"Le Clos d'Émilie is a magnificent place, very secure and Émilie is an extremely friendly, welcoming and very smiley host, taking great care of her guests.
The house is a wonderfully decorated haven , perfect for relaxing during a spontaneous weekend getaway with our grandchildren. The breakfast, prepared by Émilie, is incredible. We were even able to recharge our car.
We enjoyed it so much that we'll definitely be back . Highly recommended, again and again.
Thank you Emilie for this very pleasant interlude.
