Très bonne adresse pour des vacances de rêve en famille.
Séjour extraordinaire. propriétaires très accueillants.
le lieu est un vrai petit paradis pour petits et grands.
les logements sont très bien équipés il ne manque rien. Nous le recommandons fortement.
Weekend génial dans le superbe Gîte de Sarah, qui est très arrangeante et garantit un accueil parfait et sympathique.
La combinaison des 3 gîtes (2 petits et un grand) permet d'avoir de quoi cuisiner sereinement pour des grands groupes (3 frigos, 3 lave-vaisselle...), ce qui est très important et pratique. La literie, les chambres et pièce du vie du grand gîte sont très agréables.
Et que dire du jardin... magnifiquement fleuri. De grands espaces pour jouer au foot, se détendre dans un hamac et de nombreux jeux pour les enfants. Ajouter à cela l'espace piscine, sécurisé et très bien aménager avec ses 2 jacuzzis, ou encore la grange avec billard, ping-pong... de quoi bien s'occuper et passer du bon temps.
Seule recommandation : Mettre une lumière permanente afin d'éclairer les tables pour manger autour de la piscine pour le soir.
Le lieu-dit est très sympa : que des belles maisons typiques de la région, autour de Melle, ville charmante.
Nous reviendrons sans hésiter! Le Géocrew
Tout est parfait : l'accueil, le gîte où il ne manque rien, absolument rien, la propreté, le confort des couchages, le cadeau de bienvenue, les jeux pour grands et petits, le calme, le charme de ce petit village. Une seule envie y revenir. Merci Sarah.
