TESTIMONIALS

It was wonderful to see the new areas at La Chatouillette that you have created Allan and Josie, both in the gardens and by the river. We had another magical time. Briar loved the dragonflies, the damoelflies, pond skaters and orb web spiders. The colours and sweep of the garden, river and lake are beautiful - you’ve wrestled with Nature in equal partnership!

We have never felt so at home in a place so far away from our own. The Gite, the river and the jetty all felt so familiar. (Jake, 14 – Shamwari is the cutest cat to ever live!)

Thank you Josie and Allan for another wonderful visit to your Gite. We’ve had a lovely time, caught some fish and enjoyed the tranquility of the area. Wishing you all the best for 2019 and we hope to see you next year. Warm wishes.
