We stayed at the house in Gouvy for 3 nights with 16 adults and 5 children (between 1-3). While we did enjoy our stay, we think that there are quite a few things that need improvement.
Positive:
- The bedrooms are very nice and comfortable.
- Kitchen and dining room are very well equipped
- Outside area is nice and large
- Lots of toys for the children
Negative:
- In our opinion the price of almost 4,000€ for 3 nights is way to high and not justified
- Bedlinens, towels, dishtowel etc. were not provided and it was not even possible to rent them. For our group of 20 people from 5 countries it was very difficult to organize bringing that ourselves. And it was not evident during the booking process but only afterwards
- The number of bathrooms and toilets was too small for the number of the people and the locks on some of them didn’t work properly
- On our second night, the fire alarm went off, while we were cooking. This in itself is not a problem and even a good thing, but it was impossible to turn off the alarm for almost an hour! The landlady told us about a sheet of paper with a code, but this was nowhere to be found and the caretaker who lives close by was not helpful either. In the end we found the sheet, which was locked away in one of the closets and only had (very confusing) instructions for unarming the alarm in Dutch. In my opinion this needs to be handled more professionally with easily findable, clear instructions in at least English and French.
