Madame Frenchy
Travel to Angers, France, in total immersion with a French family
Madame Frenchy
You will arrive on Sunday afternoon from 2pm. I’ll pick you up at Angers train station.
You’ll have time to settle into your room before sharing a welcome dinner together at the family table.
If you are arriving by car, we have ample parking on site.
You will leave on Saturday morning after breakfast. I’ll drop you off at the station at the same time as your train or before midday.
The day begins with breakfast between 8 and 9 am. Each morning, from 9am to 11am, we’ll take French language workshops together: these are designed to meet your language learning needs (in-depth study of grammar and written expression, or conversation workshops, themed games, debates, etc).
We will share 3 lunches together during the week, and you will be able to help prepare them in the same way as in a cookery workshop.
As far as the visits are concerned, the aim is to offer you fun, sporting and cultural activities. Half-day excursions can be extended to a full day to give you more opportunities to travel.
The first language workshop will enable us to assess your language level and define the week’s schedule with you, as well as the choice of visits or activities.
We serve a typical French breakfast with coffee, tea or hot chocolate, accompanied by a croissant, butter, jam and a fresh baguette of course! We can also prepare eggs and bacon.
I love cooking, especially French cuisine. I grew up in the countryside, my father being a farmer, so I was used to cooking fresh produce from the land and from farming. But we can also adapt to your specific diet and maybe learn some new recipes with your help!
Come and experience a week of French language immersion with our family in Angers, in the heart of the city of the Dukes of Anjou!
You’ll enjoy a unique week’s vacation in a verdant setting that’s ideal for relaxation, culture, a linguistic change of scenery and sharing. We’re all very happy to open the doors of our home to you and share our daily life with you, that of a French family.
Michelle MaloneyChristelle and her family were extremely kind and welcoming. She provided an option to act as a taxi service picking me up from Nantes airport or the Angers train station. I opted to take the train as an opportunity to practice my French. Christelle met me at the train station and drove me and my luggage to her home. Her home and the visitor accommodations are lovely and comfortable and include a private bedroom with a view of the beautiful garden as well as a closet, full length mirror, and desk. There was also a lovely bathroom with bathtub, shower, and hair dryer and a toilette down the hall. I had some time to rest after travel and then we got together to discuss plans for the week. We decided on morning lessons and Christelle provided a great brochure of the area to help on selecting outings during the week. Overall it was a fantastic combination of language learning, cultural experience, local tourism, and free time for rest or solo activities. Christelle was very good at checking in with me about how much French vs English we were using and how I was doing and also took the time to teach me new phrases and concepts and translate conversations during our outings. There was a grocery shop just a few minutes walk down the street which also had toiletries. Angers also had a great bus and rail system which made it very easy to explore. Christelle and her family were fantastic hosts and everyone was very kind and encouraging in my learning. This experience is such a gem and I highly recomend it to anyone considering no matter what your level of language familiarity. I would absolutely do this again.Alar KaardChère Christelle et famille merci beaucoup de m’avoir accueilli chez vous . Cela a été un privilège rare et un moment inoubliable et précieux pour moi.merci infiniment, AlarLiza Serna"Madame Frenchy" or Mrs. Christelle was an AMAZING host during my time in France! Her and her family were super welcoming and loving. They made my experience the best it could have been!! I learned so much about the French culture and history, it has made me want to come back and visit often! If you are nervous about France I would recommend staying here. They do a great job of explaining everything and making you feel comfortable while being somewhere new. During my stay in Angers I would say it felt like Christelle and her family felt like my home away from home. You could not have a better experience anywhere else!Lynnwood CampbellThere is not enough that I could say to thank and praise Christelle. I was the first foreign student that she graciously welcomed into her home with her family for an extended period of time back in 2018. My time with them is one that I will never forget and always look upon with cherished memories. The amount of care and intention that her and her family put towards me was one that was so above and beyond that I truly am at a loss for words. Looking back at all of the experiences through true immersion in France is truly unforgettable and without a doubt, a once in a lifetime experience. Christelle is such a kind and understanding person and it shows through everyone around her, even their dog Venus ^.^ This is something you can't miss !Maggie LynchI loved my stay with Christelle, Madame Frenchy!! She is such a knowledgeable person and truly so caring. I felt instantly welcomed in her home by her family. She also loves teaching and she is always ready to explain something I don’t understand. It’s so cool to see how a French family lives, speaks and enjoys life together! I highly recommend!Griffin LowryUne maison et une famille tellement parfaite pour les étrangers ! Si vous voulez parler français, ils vous aideront sans doute; et si vous voulez parler anglais, ils ont toujours envie de pratiquer avec les anglophones. Les repas sont toujours délicieux et les conversations sont toujours vivantes. Je vous recommande cette B&B vivement
