Fab place, just needs some TLC.

ByTheWey Guildford
Review Submitted: October 8, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
Spent a week here at the beginning of October 2008. The property is huge with the 6 bedrooms and massive lounge, as described. There were only 6 of us staying here, so we had tonnes of space which was great. However a few things really let the property down in my opinion.

The place really badly needed a good clean. It is obviously an old, rustic farmhouse, but the cobwebs, dirt under the sofas, kitchen shelves/drawers/cupboards really were unpleasant. It did feel that it wasn't that well maintained as many lightbulbs needed to be replaced, the tap was dripping/flowing in the downstair loo, lots of china was chipped, kitchen utensils were broken (chuck them out!!!) and some of the electrics were very french, but a little scary!

Our basic conclusion was that the property has so much potential, but badly needs some money spent on it. Whilst none of the above spoilt our week, it just would have made it a nicer experience.

As for Sorrus, it was a certainly a sleepy village, with no boulangerie even, but there were plenty of other villages/towns very close by.

As a final note, we did see this property in a Le Touquet estate agents!! Just a warning if you're booking for next year!!
Owner's Response: We take on board all feedback and appreciate all comments received from our guests. This helps us to improve so our clients can have a lovely stay in our home.

If customers have any issues during their stay we have an agent on hand to deal with any queries or problems. If we are not advised we cannot respond.

The house is not for sale.

All the issues that have been raised have been dealt with. A new kitchen has been fitted, all crockery and utensils have been replaced. Tap is no longer dripping. The house has been thoroughly cleaned and the relevant people have been spoken to. The owner was away a lot last year and did not get the opportunity to keep an eye on things. This year will not be the same he will be on hand throughout the year to maintain the house.

The electrics are not scary just strange. The main house is a barn conversion and for example in the upstairs rooms the light switch operates a wall socket for a plug in lamp. If the lamp is switched off at the lamp the light switch will not work.

We assure you that you will have a very lovely holiday in our french house. We have just finished our fourth season and have many repeat guests and have had lots of positive feedback.

PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK AFTER YOUR STAY.

We assure that you will have a great holiday in our french home. We

Rural Idyll

Review Submitted: June 4, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We have just returned from a delightful family holiday at this property.

Plenty of space for 8 adults and 2 under 4's. The property was clean when we arrived wth the owner now in charge on that front. The new kitchen was good too.

Nice to have a property planned by British owners - enough pillows of the preferred type for once and good sleeps were the order of the holiday!!

We enjoyed Montreuil, Le Touquet, Boulogne and Nausica as well as trips to the bay of the Somme (and narrow gauge railway) and to Thiepval and the 1st world war battlefields/Arras.

Nice fish restaurants at Etaples these days too.

Fantastic farmhouse with great use of space.

Review Submitted: January 6, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
We had a great Christmas in this huge warm farmhouse. Easily accomodates 11 people. Brand new fitted kitchen with new equipment throughout. Lovely big dining room with pool table - kept the children happy for hours. Fabulous lounge with roaring open fire. Children loved the two TV areas (mezzanine and lounge well) - perfect for playstations etc. Plenty of space for us all upstairs. Great location only 15 minutes from beautiful LeTouquet and other lovely beaches. Enjoyed the garden and park at rear of house. Had very good contact with property owners who were extremely helpful and even there to meet us on our arrival. Would definitely recommend this house, especially for a large party with children.

Thoroughly enjoyable stay!

NYE Group St Albans
Review Submitted: January 5, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
We stayed at the property over New Year (27th December-3rd January) and had a wonderful time. The house was extremely spacious, nicely decorated and clean. All the bedrooms were good sized and we could all sit in lounge and dining room with no problem too (11 of us). We ran out of hot water upstairs most days but the downstairs shower always had hot water so this wasn't a problem. The electrics also took some getting used to and we did manage to flip fuse out twice but agent in France and his son were very helpful fixing this-even helping us out on NYE!
Sorrus is extremely sleepy-I think I saw 2 other cars all week! Supermarkets just 5-10 mins away, Le Touquet just 15mins drive.
The house was perfect for us, the photos on web don't do it justice-the lounge, TV and balcolny area is a fantastic space.
I would definitely go back and would certainly recommend this property to others-in fact already have!
