“We recently stayed at Chez Pierre for two nights. What an amazing guesthouse, from the moment we arrived to the moment we left we were treated like royalty. Owners Pierre and Lynn are amazing, nothing too much trouble for them. The house was beautiful and absolutely spotless! Each bedroom is decorated differently, the bed and linens were superb, TV and tea and coffee in each room. Breakfast was out of this world with freshly backed croissants, cheese, jams, fresh fruit and yogurt and any kind of egg you would like. We will most definitely be going back! And will stay longer next time. 😀”
Just a perfect and wonderful place. Pierre is a great and charming host, the guesthouse is perfectly decorated (great nautical styles and thought through, fresh and highest quality breakfast. Kind and nice staff.

“Pierre is a great host. The room was awesome, same as the kitchen and the outdoor area. Pierre and his family live next to the apartment and will make you feel at home immediately. Be prepared to get a nice hand made breakfast and many useful tips and heartful conversations whenever needed. The highlight of our stay was for sure Noodle, we believe a mix between an lion and tiger, but Pierre ensured us that she is a dog.”
