It is located in a small hamlet and is quiet and secluded. The villa itself is of a high standard and is clean. The pool area is particularly impressive and you can sunbathe at any time of the day. It is handy to have a small supermarket and bakery a short drive away in the next village. It is well placed to visit major towns and attractions including La Rochelle which has to be our favourite! Natalie, the property manager, was very helpful. In all a great place to stay - we would recommend. ##### Gary S.

The first night we stayed in a double bed in the master bedroom but it was too small. We asked to use the twin beds together as a king bed and it was arranged. We had a very nice time and the house is kept in good condition, all the linen, towels and kitchen appliances were available. There were also some nice welcome presents like wine, bread, butter, all very useful. ##### Johanna R.

House was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The bathrooms were really good size and the kitchen was very well equipped. The different outdoor spaces and pool worked really well for our 3 generation holiday! We all enjoyed the peace and walking and cycling in all the quiet paths and roads. We cycled or walked into La Champ St Pere every day for wonderful croissants and found the supermarket there had everything we needed. Julie was very responsive to me many questions in the run up to the holiday and all in all a great holiday. ##### Christine M.

We had a wonderful stay at Les Peupliers. From the beginning, the owners communicated well and we were given the number of a local lady who managed the property who kept in touch as and when required. Everything was clean and tidy and the house was brilliantly equipped to cater for all of our needs. We enjoyed our time by the pool, relaxing on the sun loungers, swimming and playing. We also enjoyed the table tennis and used the BBQ most evenings. The local supermarket was well stocked and only a five minute drive away. We explored the local area and walks and also travelled further afield to the lovely beaches. We would highly recommend this property for a relaxing holiday. ##### Henry M.

We happened to go during a heat wave so it was very hot all week 38 degrees for the last 3 days! The Gite is ideally situated to visit the many beautiful beaches about 20-30 minutes away. There is a supermarket about 5 mins away in the car. Whilst we visited the beaches for lunch, it was too hot for us to sit on the beach but we did make great use of the pool and the 3 children swam all afternoon. The furnishings were all modern, comfortable and everything very clean on arrival. We had a very relaxing first week of our holiday and would highly recommend. ##### Victoria H.

Communication in advance our our stay was perfect with some good local recommendations as well as the usual complexities of the French recycling rules. The pool was lovely and being heated was a real bonus on a couple of days where the weather was less than perfect. In terms of the accommodations it was spacious with a good sized kitchen that was well equipped for English tastes (proper sized mugs for a morning cup of tea) and plenty of glasses and cups to avoid constant washing up. Washing machine and a washing line was also helpful to avoid taking too many clothes. The location is good being less than half an hour from the closest beach, close to roads that are quiet enough to cycle with the kids but not too far from the massive hypermarkets at La Roche sur Yon. Easy to find on Waze too when we first arrived. We would happily stay here again! (And sorry we didn’t get time to write in the guest book but we had the stress of a car breakdown on our last day!) ##### Matt W.

Get in the car and in less than 5 minutes you will be in Le Champ St Père, a little village with a chemist, baker, hairdresser and a Carrefour Contact supermarket (a bit like a Tesco express). Drive about 10 minutes either east or west and you will find two little towns with more shops and people to talk to! Mareuil-sur-Lay has a great Intermarché supermarket, with a great Butcher section. We do recommand the Boulangerie in Mareuil too: easily the best croissants in the area (and that's a Frenchman telling you!). Les Peupliers is as described in the advert, if not better! Nothing is missing, and it is so nice to have everything you may need. I love to cook and all was there. The cooking hob is easy to use - so is the charcoal barbecue. All appliances are in perfect working condition. The swimming pool is clean and always at the right temperature. The property is completely secure, which was a massive plus for us as our son is autistic and we didn't have to worry about him wandering around. Beds are comfy, great bathrooms and both internal and external common areas are perfect for chilling. Communication with the owners, and their local representative Natalie, was incredibly easy before, during and after. On arrival day, we could not help but notice how clean and welcoming the house was. The "treat tray" waiting for us in the kitchen was the icing on the cake. Merci pour tout Les Peupliers! ##### Reynald G.
