Very comfortable place, really well equipped. The pool and garden are fabulous. The area is really quiet, no local shops, bars or restaurants. During our stay in mid June the nearby seaside towns were still pretty quiet.
Wonderful hosts and an amazing property. The massive pool was the highlight, especially in the 37 degree heat! Kids loved the outdoor space and table tennis table. We’ll definitely be back.
We were a family of 6, travelling with our adult children and their partners. The house was great, lots of outside space in a quiet rural area. The pool was fantastic, warm and a good size for swimming, games etc. The annexe was a welcome addition offering privacy and additional living accommodation.
We hired bikes from Lovely Bicylettta in Luçon and they delivered and collected them from the house. The roads are quiet and felt safe for cycling, vendee velo routes can be easily accessed.
Plenty of good crockery and utensils for cooking and a great bbq/outside stove which we mainly used.
The house would benefit from
a bit of an upgrade in places (windows and doors get a bit stuck, some loose tiles near pool area etc. ) but this didn’t detract at all from our holiday experience and we’d definitely book again.
Stuart and Michelle were easy to communicate with and prompt to reply to our questions.

Villa au calme, mais grand besoin d'un coup de neuf
Le positif:
- villa au calme avec un grand jardin, ideal pour les enfants et le chien
- aucun vis à vis, on est vraiment tout seul
- les propriétaires sont disponibles en cas de pepin, et sont flexibles
- ca sent vraiment le propre quand on arrive, le linge de bain sent bon
le negatif:
- la maison a serieusement besoin de renovation, la plupart des portes et des fenetres ne ferment pas bien, la protection du trampoline est usée
- beaucoup d'humidité dans certaines pieces
- aucun commerce dans le village, il faut prendre systematiquement la voiture pour aller faire les courses / aller chercher du pain.
=> au final, un bon sejour, mais le rapport qualité / prix n y est pas.
super séjour pour se reposer dans ce lieu plein de verdure, jeux pour enfants, piscine privée. De quoi se ressourcer. A 10km de l'aiguillon sur mer pour profiter de la plage
je recommande
