We had a very good vacation! Very good for a group of 14 people and the dog had a great time in the large garden. The pool was very pleasant during the hot days. The region around the gite was also magnificent with the vineyards. Thank you!
Response: A group of young sporty, funny and friendly women who chose Sancerre and our gite la Villa to spend a cool week with 14 people!
It was a pleasure to welcome them in this large gite, we organized a wine tasting in a cellar, canoe ideas on the Loire
We recommend them without hesitation! Congratulations to Paulien for the organization ....
A gîte run with a master's touch. You feel at home. Very well equipped and very comfortable. Pascale is a charming host who shares her art of living 😍
Response: A couple I highly recommend. Being used to renting a large gîte for 2 weeks, considering it as a living base to discover a region and receive family and friends, top-notch organizational skills! Very well-behaved dogs that are absolutely adorable... A well-organized and cleaned gîte 👍
Always in a good mood too, and appreciates our efforts... a real joy.
2 perfect weeks at the Cottage with 1, 2 or 3 dogs depending on the moments, gîte left very clean. TOP.

Excellent weekend of May 29th
This cottage is amazing, everything has been thought out for the tenants' well-being: a large tree-lined and enclosed park, a large comfortable house, a swimming pool, a ping-pong table that allows tournaments bringing together young and old. We appreciated the quality of the beds, the library and the games. Very welcoming and available host. Calm environment covered with vineyards.
Response: A wonderful family that we recommend without reservation. Good mood and respect were there! Have a great summer everyone
Pascale welcomes you with a smile and good advice on nearby attractions. The gite is very well maintained, very well equipped. Very large capacity and peaceful. The gardens are magnificent and the view is wonderful. We were delighted.
Owner answer: A group of friends from the South... who discover this little paradise that is Sancerre! Thank you for your encouragement! We also appreciated your good mood and your respect for the equipment that we make available to you, to allow you to optimize your stay! A group that we recommend without hesitation!
"Impeccable and very well-equipped gîte" (posted on April 24, 2025)
This gîte is fantastic, everything has been thought of for the well-being of the guests: a large wooded park and a large house. You feel right at home with the well-thought-out furniture and library for at least 15 people, not to mention the quality of the beds, both the sheets and mattresses. The beds were made upon arrival, which was very much appreciated. All this surrounded by vineyards and a magnificent landscape. We had a wonderful 3 days in the peace and quiet of the countryside.
Response: Thank you to this wonderful family for being our first group of the season.... What a pleasure it was to meet you!
Celebrating 60 years of marriage, surrounded by your children and grandchildren who live in the four corners of France; finally, Sancerre is nice and practical! We were happy to participate in the preparation of your event.
A very comfortable gite, very well equipped! We couldn't enjoy the outdoor area due to the bad weather, but it looked sublime. A haven of peace for our family stay this Christmas... We were 7 adults and 6 children, it was perfect. The owners are well-organized, very kind and available, with thoughtful touches. A big thank you to Pascale for allowing us this beautiful stay... Visited in December
Response: We were happy that this family from London, Angers, Lyon.... met up in the center of France, in our Villa gite that accommodates 15 people.
We were attentive in supporting their stay, despite the bad weather!!!
We highly recommend them, as well as their friendly dogs.
We were very warmly welcomed by our host, who was very attentive to us. He gave us valuable advice about places to visit and good restaurants to eat at.
The house was immaculately clean. Very well-equipped kitchen: We appreciated the coffee bean machine, the barbecue...
Beautiful view - Peaceful. Very safe for children (both for the pool, garden and road: last house in the dead-end before the vineyards)
Host answer: A lovely family gathered at our place in central France!
Everyone always found their own space according to their preferences between the pool, the park, the house and the activities around the gîte.
We highly recommend them! and look forward to seeing them next year...
We strongly recommend this longhouse.
In a few points:
- Impeccable welcome from Pascale and Didier
- Clean, spacious and perfectly equipped house
- Outdoor Weber BBQ and 5-burner range cooker in the kitchen, for gourmet holidays if you like to cook
- Located in a mini hamlet, peaceful for recharging
- Magnificent 3x10m pool, shared with 2 other accommodations (wooded garden = pool often in the shade), see photo
- Proximity less than 50m to walk through the vineyards, see photo
- Wooded garden to chill in the sun or shade
- Spacious and perfectly fenced grounds to enjoy these moments with open doors without risking your pet escaping
- Less than 15 minutes by car from the center of Sancerre
- The pleasure of a sunset through the trees, see photo
A negative remark (to say that): Misery to find a nearby bakery in August without going 15km. Which is a shame when it's so easy to get wonderful Chavignol goat cheeses nearby
Response: What a pleasure to receive such a pleasant family where good humor is present for everyone! and even Omaé, your magnificent 4-year-old Labrador, who appreciated the large park and new neighbors (squirrels etc..) and walks in the vineyards as well as along the Loire!
I highly recommend them!
NB: sorry about the bakeries... the one in Veaugues reopened this Monday 2.9!
Pleasant stay
We spent a pleasant week in this rental where we were warmly welcomed by Pascale. The gîte is large and functional in pure Berichon style. The equipment and dishes are numerous and of quality. The bedding is impeccable and very comfortable. The garden is large and wooded, complemented by a common pool very appreciated when it's hot. We recommend this rental very well maintained by its owners.
A particularly endearing family and 3 generations. They are welcome for another stay and we recommend them without reservation.
Stay at La Longère.
The accommodation is comfortable and very well equipped, it is located in a large wooded garden that allows you to stay cool even when it's very hot. The owners are very available and gave us good ideas for visits around the rental, ideally located.
Response: Two couples and their children whom we had great pleasure in welcoming. Very good communication. We recommend them without hesitation!!
Super nice stay - La Villa.
Good welcome with a little extra. A bottle of red Sancerre. We didn't know it. Accompanied by goat cheese crottins.
Response: A family gathering for the week at the Villa, from grandparents to grandchildren, this is typically what we love! Being in the center of France, family or friendly gatherings give us the desire to always improve our offer. Thank you Marie Lucette for your comment! A family that I highly recommend.
Lovely hosts, great property.
Super property, very well equipped with lovely big garden and great shared pool. Plenty of space downstairs and nice bedrooms. A problem was promptly fixed and the hosts were very friendly and helpful.
Owner answer: Thank you for your comment Angela! It was a pleasure having your 3 lovely families! And respect for your British expertise about French wines!
This gîte is located in a beautiful and very quiet place in the middle of the vineyards near Sancerre.
Highly recommended
Response: Thank you Jos and Alinda, We loved to receive you in the Cottage last week-end!! You are welcomed next year in your French Wine Tour!!
Two great Dutch "connoisseurs" couples who enjoy French Wines, we totally recommend them!
Family - Arrival May 9, 2024 - A big thank you to Pascale for her valuable advice and all the information provided before our stay (order from the caterer, indications for visits, table for room assignments...) The welcome from Pascale and Didier was very warm, the wooded park is a haven of peace and we thoroughly enjoyed it: games for children, meals under the trees, naps for little ones and adults, everything is provided for the comfort (bedding, dishes, linen) and safety of guests (pool). Thank you to Pascale and Didier for their availability, we occupied the large gîte and the Longère with our extended family and will keep an excellent memory of our stay.
Response: A great pleasure to exchange with Nathalie and Xavier who were keen to organize everything "to perfection" for their XXL family reunion with children and grandchildren, in the duo Cottage + Longère.
A very nice and well-behaved family that we recommend without hesitation!
The longhouse is a very nice accommodation. It is very well equipped, very clean with a splendid garden. We were 3 families with 1 or 2 children and we were not at all cramped. The only downside is the single bathroom but there are 2 toilets. The garden is very large and wooded, complemented by a common pool very appreciated when it's hot.
Owner's response: For the start of the 2nd rental season of the Longère, what a pleasure to have welcomed 3 young couples and their children who were able to fully enjoy every moment of this weekend, from the large park to the pool and all the magic of this magical house and its giant kitchen! Beautiful people that we highly recommend!
We had an excellent stay in August with friends in Pascale and Didier's gîte. In addition to a very good welcome and very good advice, we were pampered with several attentions: Sancerre wine, local cheeses... The gîte is very well equipped and the region is rich in things to do, see and drink :). We warmly recommend you! Plus the bedding is of very good quality!
We had an unforgettable stay with our 3 young children in Pascale's gîte this summer

Very welcoming and friendly hosts. They give very good gastronomic and tourist advice.
Superb gîte in the Sancerre region
We had a wonderful stay in August 2020 in this superb gîte in the middle of the vineyards. Pascale and Didier spoiled us on our arrival with wine, cheese, eggs etc... The gîte is very well equipped, the bedding impeccable (large comfortable beds - which is rarely the case in other gîtes). The garden, beautifully flowered, is large with a solar shower, very appreciable when it's hot. A vegetable garden is available.
Stay July 2020
Impossible to determine what was best: welcome, quality of services, environment, everything was perfect. We will talk about it a lot around us. Bravo Pascale and Didier.

Perfect stay for 4 couples of friends. Super welcome from pascale and didier. Very beautiful house perfectly equipped. Very beautiful garden. To be recommended without hesitation.
Perfect for a stay with friends
We spent a few days with 2 families with 3 children each at Didier and Pascale's. The house is in the heart of the vineyards, well located for visiting the surroundings. Quiet, very relaxing. Didier and Pascale are quality hosts who take our comfort very seriously. The bedding is of excellent quality, the house is very well equipped. We will certainly return at a more pleasant time for the weather.
A real cocoon
Thank you for your warm welcome, your little welcome gifts. We had a wonderful Christmas with family, thanks to Pascale and Didier who informed us well about the local merchants to make good purchases. The bedding is perfect. And to conclude we had the pleasure of a magnificent fireplace during our stay :).

Little corner of paradise in the Sancerre vineyard
Quiet gîte, with a view of the vineyards and countryside, discovered by chance during the Crézancy Jazz festival. Magnificent house, spacious, renovated and tastefully furnished. Very pleasant garden, no overlooking, you feel at home! The hosts are extremely kind and we have already booked for next year...
Like at home
Magnificent place to rest, spacious, fully equipped where you feel at home to share as a couple or with family and friends where we will return with great pleasure to also find these charming and very friendly hosts
Summer holidays 2019
Very pleasant stay spent in the Sancerre region. Gîte du Petit-Senais very comfortable, very quiet. Very friendly and welcoming owners. Wine tasting of Sancerre accompanied by goat cheese from local producers/Visits of castles, sumptuous botanical gardens, swimming and fishing in the Loire. In short, everything was combined for dream holidays.
Enjoy the riches of the Sancerre region in peace
A very nice gîte, to enjoy in Olympic calm all the good things of the region. The super bedding ensures restorative sleep, cool behind the thick stone walls, the view on waking is splendid on the vines, breakfast with your feet in the grass of the garden is invigorating,... then everyone finds the joys they want in the diversity of activities in the area :-) We will return with great pleasure
We spent a very pleasant week of vacation at Happy Petit Senais. which lives up to its name, as the owners have taken great care to create an environment conducive to spending excellent moments and forging beautiful memories. The house is very functional and cool, which is appreciable in the middle of a heat wave summer. The flowery garden and the pool area complete this picture Located in the middle of the Sancerre vineyard, this holiday home invites rest and relaxation. The owners are particularly attentive to the well-being of their guests and do not lack suggestions to help you make the most of all the riches of the region.
