Gite conforme à la description et dans un environnement calme
Nous avons été très bien accueillis avec quelques spécialités locales
Petit inconvénient avec le canapé qui est peu confortable et pas du tout adapté pour des personnes âgées (( impossible de s'en relever sans aide.....))
sinon les équipements proposés sont très adaptés même
en résumé un bon endroit pour découvrir ou redécouvrir le marais
Nous avons passé une semaine délicieuse, calme et verte.
Le gîte est confortable. Le jardin clos intime et reposant. L'auvent permet de profiter de l'extérieur quelle que soit la météo.
Nous avons circulé en vélo toute la semaine sur les circuits bien flêchés et sur les petites routes de campagne.
Le plus : une barque est mise à la disposition du gîte pour découvrir le marais au plus près.
Je recommande cet endroit.
Le gîte est idéalement situé dans le marais poitevin mouillé. Nombreuses activités dans les environs.
La propriétaire est aux petits soins. Elle prévoit même de mettre le wifi.
Le gîte est rustique et ne manque de rien.
La belle terrasse couverte est très agréable.
Maison avec petit terrain clos pour nos chiens. Vacances au top pour un moment en famille . Le seul hic: étant aucune connexion internet ni réseau pour les téléphones . Propriétaire très agréable
