The garden

The bathroom

Close to city and the N10,

The property was through a garden, quite a mess outside and was behind a business, took around 15 minutes for the owner to acknowledge we was there, the property windows was all open and a large pond outside which brought the obviously mosquitoes inside, no netting on the windows, no air conditioning which wouldn’t of been to bad if the property had some fans to cool the place down, we also got told we couldn’t lock the door incase another client books on, none of the room doors locked so thought this was unsafe for myself and others, also lots of damage and light wires sticking out of places, best room was the bathroom all brand new,

Breakfast almost non existant - the remains of previous days baguette which had been left on the kitchen table (along with loads of other stuff (including a full jar of dead batteries !) : no knowing if the cat had helped itself to anything during the night. Nice to know his name as he did not introduce himself even in the morning when he arrived late to serve breakfast in his pyjamas ! If there was a lady of the house,she was conspicuous by her absence ! Bed sheets needed a really good wash as they were (unintentionally) grey.Chair with broken seat under the desk,Notice implied no drinking or eating in the room although there were a few teabags and 2 saucers provided but no kettle or cups. Holes in bedroom curtains. Kitchen sink full & worktop covered with dirty dishes/pots with the remains of an evening meal - veryunhygenic. Cat food available all night/day in the kitchen. Mrs Scott received lots of bites (cat fleas/mosquitoes ?) in the kitchen - not from the bedroom ! Entrance yard covered in building debris - tiles,sand.cement etc Bathroom obviously recently refurbished so OK? HOW ON EARTH DID THEY GET A "Gites de France" nomination/sign ?

More or less everything ! We had a very successful B&B on the Camino St.Jacques/Santiago in France for 12 years so we know how to run one unlike the owners of "Les Terraces". We think a full refund would be in order and we could NOT recommend anyone to stay there in it's current condition.This is the first time we have had cause to complain and be so critical of any B&B whether booked throgh Booking.com or other providers.

nothing to like

toilet not working and we were not offered the use of the owners. No towels available we then had to ask for them I sat on a plastic chair which broke into pieces. Hurt my arm and my head. the chair was sun bleached and should not have been there when the owner came out she was rude and aggressive and gave no apology or concern for my injuries We had paid for breakfast but were not given one. The place is very run down and should not be on booking.com who should go and inspect it

very spacious, warm, good shower.

lack of plates and cutlery. not a knife to make sandwiches with. breakfast not sufficient. A croissant each, nothing else,no drink of any kind. property was not particularly clean.

A very original French House.

Very nice house, very kind staff that receive us. Very good place to stay in Angouleme.
