We enjoyed a perfect, relaxing holiday at Lydie and David's beautiful house. The photos really do not do this house justice - it is much bigger than you expect - lots of 'extra' spaces with seating, including a mezzanine with desk and futon, so plenty of space for teenagers to spread out . We were only 5, but there would be plenty of room for 8\. It is decorated to a high standard - very tasteful and comfortable. The beds are super comfortable, the bathrooms well-fittec out with hot, powerful showers, and the seating area is really sociable. We had lovely weather and were able to make full use of the lovely pool and the massive garden. David and Lydie are great hosts - there if you need them, they have thought of everything to make their guests feel comfortable, but they are also discrete so you have privacy. The house is well-placed for visiting Rochefort, Saintes, La Rochelle, Bourges - amongst other places, but we were also very happy just to relax in the garden. We hope to return soon! ##### Mary C.

Alles sehr schön und praktisch eingerichtet. Auch die Küche ist perfekt mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht. Ruhige Gegend - sehr freundliche Vermieter. Einzige kleine Kritik: der Pool hat Benutzungzeiten (Mo-Sa, 10-19 Uhr). Das ist prinzipiell kein Problem - allerdings sollte das in der Beschreibung mit aufgeführt werden. Zum Zeitpunkt unserer Buchung fehlte der Hinweis und daher kam das für uns etwas überraschend. ##### Rüdiger I.
