I loved my time at the guest house. Nicolas and Alexander were exceptional hosts. Their warmth and generosity made my experience incredible, and I highly recommend. Not only was the house gorgeous, but the city of Blois was quaint and charming. Since I was insulated from the city feel of Paris, I felt an authentic sense of French culture. Day to day tasks were not difficult or time consuming. There was plenty of time to explore the city and visit its many attractions and historical landmarks. I ate delicious food, drank local wine, and visited some of the many castles across the countryside.

I had a wonderful experience at the guest house. The work was easy and for the most part done with Nicolas. The town is fun to explore with tons of history and it's very easy to train to Paris for your days off!
