Fantastic!

We went to Deux Sevres for the first time. Staying here was the best part of our vacation, everything in and around the house was perfect. Deux Sevres is perfect to finally relax a bit in a busy life...

The photos of the property do not do it justice, it is absolutely beautiful. We had a really wonderful stay here, Phillip was very attentive and informative. Lots of things to do in the local area, good sized super market only a 5 minute drive away. We would definitely like to come and stay at the property again. Thanks Phillip for a lovely stay

Magnifique contact avec le propriétaire, discret, efficace, serviable. La maison est spacieuse, tout à fait équipée. Des grandes surfaces sont proches (quelques minutes). Nous avons vécu des vacances familiales très agréables avec des visites dans des villes voisines (Poitiers, Angoulème, Niort, le Parce des singes... Tous ces lieux à 30 min ou 1 heure de voiture.

Excellent séjour dans un logement très agréable

Le logement est conforme à la description, bien équipé, literie confortable, agréable à vivre et surtout au calme très appréciable. Très bon accueil du propriétaire et bonne communication au cours du séjour (merci pour le dépannage de la tv!) Notre plus jeune fils ne voulait pas en repartir! Prévoir un peu de voiture pour des visites (45 min à 1h); sinon petit supermarché à 5 min et centre plus important à 15 min (en voiture) Logement à garder en mémoire
