Balnot-sur-Laignes Vacation Rentals

"Felt unclean and dirty"

"Great got families"

"We really enjoyed our brief stay at Cosy Wood House. Although it has shared facilities, we were there as a family of 4 for most of the time on our own (with only one other person who arrived late in the evening when we were in bed!) Our family room was spacious and the bathroom incredibly clean. The property is modern and very well kept. The shared kitchen is well equipped, with a good range of utensils and crockery. There is also an oven, hob, microwave and huge fridge. It is situated in a very quiet location, with just a few neighbouring houses. The continental breakfast provided to those who choose this option is plentiful and filling - with fresh bread, croissants, coffee, cake and juice. Although it is not possible to walk to shops, they are only a short 10 minute drive away on the outskirts of Troyes. The property had WiFi, TV and a table football which kept us well entertained. The host was very friendly and spoke good English. The keys to the property were in a lock box so we could collect them conveniently. "

"We (retired Brit couple) have stayed at Val Moret many times over 20 years or so. Dinner at the restaurant is always a highlight and the most recently acquired chef has increased the already delicious standards. Rooms are clean and comfortable, all one needs for a night’s journey stopover. (I suspect few people book a week’s holiday here but a few nights would be entirely reasonable). During 2025 there are building works progressing toward enlargement of the restaurant and reception. The work isn’t at all disruptive or intrusive, particularly for rooms further away. If the end result enhances the bar area that will be a great improvement, as the existing bar facilities are about the only thing that let the place down currently. We haven’t used the spa but it looks good. Finally, credit must be given to famille Marisy (and particularly to Mme, who apparently never sleeps) who work tirelessly for the comfort of their guests. It’s really good to see a family business thriving in this ever increasingly conglomerate dominated industry."

"Friendly welcome on arrival and at breakfast. Good room and bathroom. Very good breakfast. Adjacent restaurant is very good but a bit pricey. Very good for an overnight stop or longer to explore the area."

"A real jewel in the french outback. All cover, very good price."

"Very welcoming hosts. Convivial atmosphere, charming house and location "

"Property is quite beautiful in a shabby chic kind of way, although the ground is relatively small. Food is decent, but nothing too memorable. We didn’t realise it has a Michelin star, so decided to pay the premium as we didn’t want to go out after a long drive from Calais. Restaurant service was not great to be honest, we had to keep asking for our wine glass to be replenished, even though they didn’t seem to be short of staff. "

"If you want a truly old France experience, this is the place ! Lovely friendly couple who have turned their 19c priory into a b & b, retaining all the character and architecture of the period, as well as the furniture. Good bathroom facilities and good value for money. The surrounding rural area is stunning. "
