Pleasant family vacation

We could make the best of the somewhat poor weather thanks to the many options in and around the house, and a golf 20mn away. The family including 3 teens enjoyed it. Very easy communication with Mike and local support to check on electric issues.

Fantastic house!!!

We had a fantastic holiday! The weather in the first week was not so great, but we could entertain us with the pool, tennis, snooker and ping pong. We were also very happy with the furniture in the living room. The sofas were very comfortable. The house is great and the communciation with Mike was very good. Thank you for the good care, regards, Frank and Inge

Peaceful holidays without giving up

Together with two families (8 persons) plus a dog, we spent a great, quiet holiday here. Mike is a really nice host, who react on any question we had at once. The farmhouse had everything one would need with two families. The children enough variety with pool, tennis, billiards and table football. The house is tastefully furnished and offers all residents enough space and opportunities to stay. The kitchen is equipped with everything, nothing was missing. The pool is well fenced, so no worries with little children. On the hot days we were happy about the shady trees in the garden around the pool. Restaurants were hard to find in the area. Next shop was 9 minutes away in town. We would really recommend this house. You will not regret coming here, if you wish a calm holiday, far away from any tourism bustle.

About the host

Hosted by Mike Bolwell

We live in Dorset and bought La Fermette 24 years ago. We employed a French architect to renovate the very dilapidated farm house into the stylish and spacious house that it is today - a 'home away from home'.

We have spent lots of fantastic holidays at La Fermette, shared with many members of family and friends. Unfortunately we are not able to visit the house on a very regular basis so we decided to rent the house. It is in such a lovely peaceful setting with lots of facilities including our own swimming pool and tennis court - together with a beautiful golf course within fifteen minutes drive plus miles of walking and cycling opportunities. Not to mention the lovely regional French food!
