Zeer vriendelijke ontvangst. Op zondagavond zijn zowat alle restaurants gesloten. Geen probleem; gastvrouw zorgde voor een uitstekende maaltijd. Zo gastvrij zijn we nog nooit ontvangen. Regelmatig werd er geïnformeerd of we het naar ons zin hadden en waren ze zeer behulpzaam.

Sehr großes Haus mit schönen Pool

Wir haben ein paar Tage mit unserer Tocher (16 Jahre) in dem Haus verbracht. Die Umgebung ist sehr ruhig. Gleich nebenan ist ein sehr guter Bäcker, ein Tabac und in 400m Entfernung ein guter Supermarkt. Die Vermierter sind extrem freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Küche war vollständig ausgestattet. Die Betten sind bequem. Auch bei sehr großer Hitze ist das Haus durch die dicken Mauern kühl. Aus der Onlinebeschreibung geht leider nicht hervor, dass das Bad nur von außen zugänlich ist, was uns aber nicht gestört hat. Das Haus hat nur einen extrem großen und hohen Raum (mit Ausnahme des WC). Die zwei Schlafbereiche im 1.OG befinden sich auf einer, zum Wohnbereich offenen, Galerie und sind keine eigenen Zimmer. War für uns aber auch kein Problem, da die Bereiche über Paravents abgetrennt sind. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen und würden das Haus wieder buchen.

Havre de paix au Marais Poitevin

Séjour très agréable dans un petit village du Marais Poitevin. Un accueil chaleureux et bienveillant des hôtes de cette magnifique demeure. Location charmante "type Loft" au cœur du village de St Hilaire la palud situé à 10 min à pied de l'embarcadère de Montfaucon pour des ballades en barque dans une partie sauvage du marais et à 15 min de parc ornithologique. Idéal pour toutes sortes de balades (à pied, en barque,à vélo ou à cheval) Un écrin de calme que nous recommanderons vivement. Catherine et Yves

Super séjour dans un très beau lieu

Une très bonne expérience , les lieux sont vastes et typiques, tout en état confortables et conformes aux descriptions, l'equipement électroménager est dans le haut du panier, rien ne manque, tout est de qualité. La litterie quant à elle, est excellente. Une belle surprise avec une piscine a disposition...les propriétaires sympathique et non envahissant. Le seul bémol étant la salle de bain attenante mais ce détail n'était pas caché, et visibles dans les commentaire. Nous recommandons chaleureusement.
