The gite was clean, comfortable and had everything needed for a self catering holiday. The weather was beautiful if not a little hot, reaching around 38 degrees - maybe a fan would have made sleeping a bit more comfortable. The online description doesn’t do the gite and especially the pool and garden area justice as many improvements have been made since those photos were taken. The village and surrounding areas were lovely, very close to Niort and the Mervent Forest. We would definitely recommend this gite. ##### Marie H.
