“In this haven of peace and friendship the past has caught up with the present. Two beings met for the first time here, a 56 year old Frenchman, Bernard, and a 59 year old German, Raymonde. A love story between a French prisoner of war and a young woman in Germany in 1945: their child was called....Raymonde. The prisoner returned to Lyon and founded a family. That child was called Bernard. Today, the brother and sister are meeting at Christmas to get acquainted.

“There are houses which resemble people,
Some are the story of a life, and of a family
Others are cradles of adventure that welcome newly composed families
Your home, thanks to your devotion and efforts, is both:
From its solid base on the rich and generous Burgundy soil
It pursues your life story whilst hosting, for a brief moment, our live stories
Thank you. DL”
“The joy you get from what you do shows even in the quality of your cuisine. Once again, thank you for the tasty food...
This shared moment in time together was delightful”
