About this property

Gîte "Ile d'Aix" with shared 7x7m swimming pool, 20 minutes from the beach

Ideally located between the 3 islands (Ré, Oléron, Aix), 20 minutes from the beaches and La Rochelle, the 3 lodgings will welcome you in a peaceful setting in a renovated 18th century enclosure. Its swimming pool, perfectly integrated in the Clos style, will encourage prolonged relaxation in a touch of nature free from any nuisance.

Ile d'Aix, 25m², 2 people
 
Built around the old pump from the Clos Bernessard well in Saint-Coutant le Grand, this south-facing studio will take you into an atmosphere unique to the mythical Aix island: soft shades to accommodate up to two people. Its massif of Horstensias in the North and its terrace in the South, with a view of the swimming pool, will offer you the cachet and charm expected.

I highly recommend staying at Le Clos du Vallon des Courances. We really didn't want to go home!

The cottage was very clean and comfortable in a lovely style with everything we needed for out 3 week stay in September. There is a private terrace that looks onto the garden which is a relaxing place to drink your morning coffee and a glass of wine in the evening. The garden was a real treat for us and a lot of care and attention has gone into creating a beautiful green environment with a wide variety of plants to look at and the butterflies they attract. The pool was an added bonus and the perfect place to cool off after a day of exploring. Our hosts Stephan and Vanessa were really friendly and welcoming. Our French is very basic but Stephan speaks great English and was really helpful with all of our questions and giving us lots of information about the area. Stephan also made a reservation for us at the Le Logis Du Péré restaurant which is highly recommended and only 2km away from Le Clos du Vallon des Courances Thank you both so much for your hospitality. Hopefully we will be able to return again one day.

Le Clos du Vallon des Courances

My husband and I have just returned from a wonderful week in gite Ile de Aix. From the moment we arrived and were welcomed by Stef and Vanessa we had a really positive and relaxing experience. The gite is spotlessly clean and decorated with flair and good taste by Vanessa. It is equipped with everything you need for a self catering holiday. We especially loved sitting on the terrace overlooking the garden and the pool. Stef and Vanessa are great hosts, really helpful with suggestions for places to eat and visit . We really enjoyed our holiday and would love to return for a longer stay.

Un magnifique petit studio dans un cadre très agréable.

Nous avons passé de très agréable vacances dans ce charmant petit coin de campagne. Aucune mauvaise surprise n'était à déplorer, bien au contraire : les propriétaires étaient à nos petits soins. La propreté du studio et les équipements correspondaient bien à la description, nous avions toutes les informations nécessaires à notre séjour dès notre arrivée. Et que dire de la piscine.... que du bonheur! Bref, nous sommes prêts à y retourner dès que possible. Nous recommandons cette location, tenue par des personnes professionnelles et très sympathiques. Au plaisir de vous revoir. Brice et Noémie de l'Hérault.
