The owners
Nhu Anh & Henri
Of Vietnamese origin, Nhu Anh Desormeaux was born and lived in the Paris area until 2021. After graduating from engineering school in 1994, she worked for 7 years in business consultancy, then 20 years in the aeronautics industry.
Her husband, Henri Desormeaux, grew up in Normandy, then after graduating from business school in Paris, he began his career in IT consulting. He has now been working in this field for 30 years.
Married since 1998, parents of 3 boys, they decided in 2015 to buy this old farmhouse and gradually converted it into their haven of rest, 1h15 from their home in the Paris area.
In 2021, after a difficult year marked by the COVID-19, they decided to leave the Paris area. After all these years of “champion” careers, they now live at the Champion!
Henri continues his career as a teleworker, while Nhu Anh has left her job as an engineer to devote herself to this cottage and their children.
Comments
from our guests
“We spent the New Year’s weekend (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) with friends at La parenthèse du champion.
A real break for everyone with great services that delighted everyone: very beautiful building very well renovated with multiple activities: large reception table on a semi-open kitchen which allows to have super convivial moments, another room with a corner sofas, hifi, billiards and super Roland piano, a video room and console games ( Mortal Combat and Sonic … ), a sports room adjoining the spa with sauna (the 95 degrees were reached 👍 ), large jacuzzi of very great quality (various jets, possibility of plays of light and music) and very large shower. Spa room that is very well isolated from the rest.
Upstairs chess, pinball and table football. In short, something for everyone!
The rooms are of very high quality with a very good quality of sleep.
The host is very pleasant and is there if needed with great tips.”
