Summer stay

an excellent spacious property which was well presented and equipped. Could not fault the accommodation and the photographs did not do it justice. The welcome basket was much appreciated. Well worth the wait.. David and Julie

Séjour de septembre 2021

Le gîte est agréable et bien situé. Cependant, à notre arrivée, un serpent se trouvait dans le salon. Cela peut être compréhensible car le gite se situe à la campagne. Mais nous avons été déçus par l'absence de réaction de nos hôtes. Nous avons réglé seuls le problème. Un chauffage d'appoint serait le bienvenu dans la salle de bains.

Very good, clean and peaceful.

The gite was excellent and conveniently situated for visiting the surrounding area. Unfortunately the weather was not as good as we had hoped and it was cool in the evenings. However, will almost certainly visit again.

La Bodiniere

La Bodiniere is a fabulous and spotlessly clean cottage. It looks small from the outside but this is deceiving as it is really large and roomy. The kitchen was well equipped and it had a lovely private garden with great equipment for children. The addition of a second toilet was a bonus. The owners, Jo and Ian and their family were really friendly and helpful. They left a great arrival gift for us which made us feel really welcome. The location was fabulous, quiet and peaceful yet near to the town and a supermarket. We had a fantastic week in what was the best cottage that we have ever stayed in. We will definitely stay here again in the future.

agréable maison de campagne tout confort

Nous avons passé une très bonne semaine à la campagne, au calme avec vaches, poule et cheval à proximité. Donc idéal pour une semaine de repos; La petite ville de Moncoutant est à 5min avec boulangeries, autres commerces et un supermarché à coté. Dans la location, les enfants se sont régalés de la piscine privative, du trampoline et des jeux mis à disposition. La maison est bien équipée, et correspond complétement au photos montrées. Les propriétaires sont discrets mais très gentils et accueillants. Bref on s'y est bien senti et nous conseillons cette escale en Vendée.

EXCELLENT GITE AND HOSTS

FROM THE OUTSIDE THE GITE LOOKS QUITE SMALL, BUT IT IS LIKE THE TARDIS ON DOCTOR WHO AS IT IS EXTREMELY SPACIOUS INSIDE. .IT IS WELL MAINTAINED AND VERY CLEAN. THE OWNERS ARE ON HAND TO ANSWER QUERIES AND WERE VERY FRIENDLY. MY HUSBAND AND I WANTED A RELAXING HOLIDAY, WHICH WE HAD, BUT BECAUSE OF THE LOCATION THERE ARE PLENTY OF SHOPS, RESTAURANTS AND ACTIVITIES FOR CHILDREN NEARBY WHICH MAKES THIS GITE SUITABLE FOR EVERYONE. AS YOU CAN PROBABLY GUESS, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS GITE.
