Moment de détente en famille
Le logement était grand et très agréable. Nous avons profité du grand jardin mis à disposition.
De plus, grâce la localisation du gîte, nous avons pu visiter le marais et nous promener à La Rochelle.

Lovely house and garden
We had a superb stay with Rose Line and her husband. The kids loved the swimming pool and our (small) dog loved the large and beautiful garden.
Drive to the oceans is a little over 1/2h. La Rochelle is a nice place.

tranquillité et bien être
Nous avons passé une très agréable semaine dans le marais poitevin. L'appartement correspond en tous points à la description. Les propriétaires sont charmants et vous mettent à l'aise. Ils se rendent disponibles dès que besoin et sont également très discrets. On se sent bien dans cette location! Une barque , des vélos à disposition pour découvrir le marais et ses alentours, du bonheur! Par ces fortes chaleurs nous avons aussi profité d'une piscine très bien entretenue et très agréable ainsi que d'une climatisation au top. Un grand merci! Le logement permet de rayonner facilement pour visiter les points d'intérêt de la région, entre terre et mer c'est idéal. il faut faire un peu de route mais les trajets permettent aussi de profiter de jolies architectures. Merci encore aux propriétaires pour ce séjour dépaysant et reposant; nous recommandons absolument ce gite pour qui est à la recherche de vacances sans stress.

Excellent séjour au cœur du marais poitevin
Excellent hébergement au cœur du marais poitevin. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié l’amabilité de nos hôtes. Avec nos petits-enfants nous avons apprécié la piscine en cette période de canicule. Et la mise à disposition de la barque pour faire un tour sur les canaux est un plus bien agréable.
Nous reviendrons.
