Vikki, the host was very helpful both with answering any queries we had, and also recommending activities and restaurants. The cottage was clean and very well equipped.

Aug 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great 2 weeks From the minute we arrived with the lovely welcome pack, we had a great 2 weeks holiday. The house was perfect in terms of size, location and equipped with everything you could possibly need for a great stay. We got great tips from Sue on events and music in the area. We ate out in the local pizza restaurant and in the restaurants in the port. We loved the huge garden and the pool. We'd love to come back again! ##### Martin M. Stayed 14 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tony C. Jul 15, 2018 #### Very Relaxing Holiday The property is set in an unspoilt village and is within walking distance of a few small shops. The house overlooks vineyard and countryside and has a pleasant swimming pool in the garden. The layout of the house makes it ideal for a couple or family. It is very clean and everything exceeded our expectations. We were sorry to have only booked one week as we would have enjoyed a longer stay. There are several small towns and good beaches within a short drive and we had no difficulty in finding restaurants locally. Overall, thank you to the owners for keeping good standards throughout. No problem in recommending this to anyone wanting a peaceful, relaxing French holiday. ##### Tony C.

Huge garden, not overlooked. Great pool, Fantastic (new) big charcoal bbq, outdoor seating. UK FreeSat TV. WiFi is quite weak as it’s a very rural area, so wouldn’t recommend if you want to do any work on a PC during your visit. Bakery, butchers, great little supermarket and several restaurants in village, all within walking distance (or a short drive) from the house. The owner, Vikki is fantastic; always very prompt communication and so friendly and helpful. It adds to the positive experience of the stay. ##### Jeremy W.

Very spacious inside and very large garden-kids loved playing ball games and the little tea set went down a treat with our little boy. Seating area was a bit warm as no shade and sometimes too windy for the parasol- would benefit from an awning. Fantastic facilities including good range of cooking equipment. The bakery down the road was a must visit for fresh bread and treats. Villa only 20 mins from the beach and 40 mins to Royan. Victoria was amazing at answering any questions as and when needed.

Pool was perfect for the weather, with a large garden overlooking vineyards. Plenty of outside space for sitting and dining. The house was immaculate, everything provided that we needed for the week. All communication with the owner was great. The house is on the outskirts of a lovely village, we walked into the village every morning to get pastries for breakfast from the bakery. There’s also a small co-op for other essentials. We had a great meal at the port that we could also walk to. It’s in a lovely area with lots to do. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone wanting to holiday in the area. ##### Suzanne C. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa J.

Vikki was great always ready to answer any questions straight away. The property manager Kim and her husband Phil are brilliant, very informative about place’s to eat and where to visit. Anything you needed they sorted it out. The villa, garden and pool are beautiful. The Most relaxing, tranquil place we have ever been to. The only noise was bird songs which is lovely.

Nous avons apprécié notamment l'espace et le calme de la propriété qui est aussi bien située pour réaliser diverses visites. La maison est bien équipée et agréable à vivre. Bien que le site indique clairement que la propriétaire parle anglais, nous aurions espéré que les documents sur place soient traduits en français. Sur le plan matériel, le lit à deux places est confortable, les dimensions reprises sur l'annonce sont correctes mais il n'est pas adapté à des personnes de plus d'1,80 m. Au-delà de cet aspect pratique, nous avons passé une excellent séjour là-bas et nous espérons pouvoir y revenir un jour! Merci à la propriétaire pour sa réactivité dans ses réponses et son souci continu du bien-être des locataires ! ##### jean-luc v.
