The evening before our trip to Yverdon i asked Beatrice if it's possible to stay at her house. I received a quick and friendly answer. We even got the offer to be picked up at the train station, what we didn't need, since we also had the bikes with us. We were able to store our luggage at their place in the afternoon before their returned from work.
We didn't know, that they wanted to go out in the evening and so we returned a bit late, they were just leaving... but the opened their house warmly for us and trusting to leave us there alone.
We found everything as discribed. Beatrice even prepared to rooms for us (my son and me). In the morning breakfast was set ready on the table with lovely homemade marmalade.
It's a house were you can see, that it was filled with a big family years ago and the spirit of that life is still there, it's cozy and practical.
Beatrice is a kind and warm person and interested in her guest. We immediate felt comfortable and I felt sorry, that I didn't remember more of my french lessons to communicate ;-)
My son and I stayed 2 nights. The neighborhood is quiet and nice. Since everything is more or less flat, it was wonderful for us to explore the area around Yverdon with the bicycles.
Merçi beaucoup pour cette formidable hospitalité!!
à bientôt
