About this property

P3 Welcoming 1-Bed Apartment with Attractive Garden And Swimming Pool, Free WIFI

A warm welcome to our self-catering one-bed holiday apartment to let in a quiet suburb of La Rochelle, 15 mins leisurely walk from the stunning city centre, and 2 mins from local shops and cafes. We are sure you will love your stay with us. The apartment (approx 32m2) is in very pleasant surroundings, and forms part of a new residence known as "La Residence du Petit Puits" with a 9m salt water swimming pool shared between four apartments (Please note: the swimming pool is open for the months of July and August only). This is a welcoming base from which to explore this thriving and beautiful town without the hefty hotel charges. It can comfortably sleep two couples or a family of four, with the upstairs bedroom on an open wooden mezzanine level and its double bed and the sofa bed downstairs in the living room on the ground floor. TV and free WIFI. La Rochelle is the most attractive city on the West Coast of France. The Charente Maritime area, like the Vendee, enjoys a 'micro-climate' of temperatures similar to those on the South Coast of France.

Towels and linen provided.

Bus lines 11 (https://yelo.agglo-larochelle.fr/bus/lignes-horaires/-/horaires-bus/ligne/periode-scolaire/23706) and 6 (https://yelo.agglo-larochelle.fr/bus/lignes-horaires/-/horaires-bus/ligne/periode-scolaire/23702) stop directly next to the Residence. It takes 5 minutes to get to the Place de Verdun in the centre of La Rochelle (it takes about 20 minutes by foot for the same trip). The bus stop is "La Vallée". For cycle paths, they exist everywhere in La Rochelle. Here is a map of the bike trails on which I marked the location of our Residence with a small red star. The bus stop is "La Vallée". https://www.dropbox.com/s/osv7btreo5dbno6/le%20plan%20v%C3%A9lo%20de%20La%20Rochelle-2%20piste%20cyclable%20cycle%20route%20Puits%20%C3%A9toile%20rouge%20redstar.jpg?dl=0

The overall impression was good although in a built-up area further from La Rochelle than expected

We realized when reserving the apartment that it was on 2 levels. Although my wife has some mobility problems she manages the stairs at home very well but we did not realize that the bathroom was on the ground floor. This became a problem during the night coming down the stairs which had open treads. Another problem we had was that in the bedroom there was a large part-folded bed which gave us very little space. In the kitchen/living area there was a small bed settee was very low and uncomfortable. The apartment was stated to be for 4 people but we felt that it was more suitable for 2 people or a family with small children. In spite of these problems we had a good holiday but unfortunately the property was not what we expected and we will not be returning.

Hi there This is a great shame because if you had let us know at the time of your booking about your wife's limited mobility, we could have proposed the second apartment we operate in the same residence, at the same price, that is all on one level and happened to be available at the time of your booking. We're always sad to read when our guests haven't been fully happy during their stay especially when no communication was made at the time of booking - we will always do the maximum we can to put things right especially if we are informed about a guest's worries as soon as they arrive. For example, we'd have been more than happy to make things easier for you re. the space issues you mention by coming to move the sofa bed you say was in your way. We're sad you didn't give us that opportunity. Some of your other concerns we wouldn't have been able to resolve, such as the layout or location of our apartment which is very clearly detailed in the description and photographs, and of which we make a point of giving as accurate a description as we can. The nature of the stairs being 'open' and position of the bathroom are not concealed in our details or images, and we therefore feel sad that those have formed part of your negative review of the apartment. We list the location as 20 minutes' walk from town, and we are confident that this is an accurate description: the bustling Place de Verdun at the heart of La Rochelle, with the central bus station and eateries and cafés, is just 20 minutes' walk from us. Many people forget that La Rochelle is actually a large town, and there are many many parts of the town that are much further from the centre than we are. Many of our guests tell us how much they've enjoyed escaping the immediate bustle of the centre at the end of a busy day exploring, shopping, dining, beaching, sailing, etc. As a note, the lounge sofa has since your stay been replaced as part of a standard review we undertake on a regular basis, so this is no longer an issue. Regarding the capacity, we regularly host families in the apartment you stayed in without any problems, and the vast majority of comments we receive from previous guests are thankfully very positive, but we remain very regretful that yours was less so. We note that you make no mention of in your review of the welcome wine, card and other essentials we left for you - I hope some of these went some way to making your stay more pleasant. Best wishes Jeremy and Lorraine

location lagord

bonjour, lieu et bâtiment correctes, mais beaucoup de choses à dire sur l'intérieur de cette location. Propreté plus que douteuse, poussière, gras dans la cuisine sur tous les ustensiles et déco, salle de bain: obligés de réparer la lunette du w.c;, douche pleine de moisissure, ainsi que le rideau de douche et toujours saleté derrière les meubles. Porte principale également défectueuse à réparer (dessous d'un montant de porte côté serrure qui tombe) Il serait judicieux de faire figurer sur l'annonce les dates de mise en service de la piscine, et non de les avoir une fois la location payée. Egalement petit déboire avec la sortie des containers à ordures Néanmoins tout n'est pas négatif, belle propriété, et belle région que nous avons beaucoup appréciée. Cordialement Famille Revel

Warm, friendly stay

We stayed in the two storey apartment with an ample sized bedroom upstairs, downstairs provided excellent cooking and resting facilities. The whole area was a credit to the owners, clean and litter free. At no point did we feel anything but completely relaxed. There are 3 supermarkets within easy walking distance and La Rochelle centre was a pleasant 20 minute walk. If you have a vehicle there are some lovely local areas to visit with easy access to the main route. I wholeheartedly recommend a break here even if you just like to lie on a sunbed all day as the sun is on the property almost from sunrise.

About the host

Hosted by Jeremy and Lorraine Millington

Host profile image

We are an Anglo-Irish family who have been living in La Rochelle since 2003 and now split our time between La Rochelle and London. We run holiday accommodation here, in a super town for tourists and those seeking to get away from it all alike. In addition, we are musicians and sing, write and play together in a band called The Portraits. This pic was taken during a recent trip of a lifetime to India, and really got into the spirit, clothes and all!

Why they chose this property

Our little residence with pool was built in 2006 next to our own home in La Rochelle. It provides a well-equipped, cosy and welcoming environment from which to make the best of all that La Rochelle has to offer.

What makes this property unique

We are only 20 minutes walk from the centre of La Rochelle - a beautiful walk most of which is through La Rochelle's glorious central park.

Linen and towels provided.

We are happy to arrange to do washing for our guests when we are around. We'll happily do one full wash for free during your stay, and may ask for a donation for subsequent washes - get in touch if interested.
