we enjoyed our stay in this very nice property - the garden is delightful and as it was an extremely hot week we appreciated the lovely shade from the tree. Everything is nearby and it was great not to have to use the car.

Perfect for the two of us both needing our own rooms. Nice and cool in the heat. Lovely garden for sitting out in late afternoon. Helpful hostess! Great location for visiting Meschers-sur-Gironde, Les Grottes, Talmont-sur-Gironde and Mornac-sur-Seudre. Delightful! Thank you Shelley!

Idyllic spot!
This June, we spent our 4th holiday in Rose Tremiere. Need I go on, Shelley & Carl must be doing something right! We are drawn like a magnet to this charming French conversion, which has everything that you would need for a relaxing holiday, however long you stay. It is great to be able to relax in the garden after a day out travelling around or walking and exploring the neighbourhood. The locals are all very friendly, even with our very limited French, who like to chat to you.
All amenities are close within walking distance, supermarket, bakers, butchers, restaurants, cafes. The supermarket has a petrol station for when you need the car, but you could spend a vacation here and never get into your car!
Hence, we will be returning for our 5th year in 2017.

A savoir
Il y a des radiateurs dans tout les pièces et poêle à bois (bois fournie) dans le salon. Pas de supplément pour la chauffage.
Sejour agréable dans une maisonnette bien située, près des divers sites :grottes ,port , plage accessibles à pieds. Confort , propreté, jardin ,endroit calme sont des atouts pour passer un bon moment de tranquillité. Je recommande.
schöner Aufenthalt, wunderschöner Garten. Einfache Einrichtung. Für den tägl. Gebrauch alles vorhanden. Nähe zum Meer, wunderschöne Strände - Strände im September so gut wie leer. Gastgeberin top.
Nous avons passé un très bon moment, la maison est fonctionnelle, équipée de tout ce qu'il faut et jolie. Le jardin très agréable. La propriétaire est très accueillante, tout s'est très bien passé. La région est aussi très belle.
La maison est idéalement située près de la mer, des commerces de proximité dans une belle région touristique.
L'accueil de Shelley est très chaleureux.
La maison est confortable, lumineuse , dans une rue tranquille.
Idéalement situé pour des activités très diversifiées. Marches le long du littoral accessibles à pied de la maison. Quartier très calme. Shelley, notre hôte a été très agréable et disponible.
Nous avons passé d'excellentes vacances : tout était parfait ... de l'arrivée au départ.
Très cordial accueil à l'arrivée, petite maison très colorée, très propre ... et tout est accessible à pied en 5 à 15 minutes maxi : le super u pour les courses (ouvert 7 jours sur 7), le port, les grottes, sans oublier la plage !
Je recommande fortement cette location

Merci Michele, nous sommes ravis que vous avez tous passé un bon séjour à Rose Trémière. Avec plaisir si vous voulez revenir.
Location très mignonne et très bien placée, avec tout le nécessaire pour quelques jours. Communication simple et agréable avec Shelley. Merci encore pour cet agréable séjour.
This simple little house, very much in keeping with the French style, is at the centre of a charming, friendly old village and is perfect for couples. The sea, cliff walks, beaches, excellent cafes and shops are all within easy walking distance. The smarter restaurants at the port end of the village are a longer walk or short drive away. The walks and cycle paths are beautiful, accessible and there are lots of nearby villages with fascinating history. The wildlife in the surrounding salt marshes is amazing for all nature lovers.
We enjoyed a great, peaceful holiday at the cottage and the very helpful property manager is easily contactable if needed.
