Großzügige Ferienwohnung in Strandnähe

Ruhig und einen kurzen Fußweg vom Meer entfernt. Auch zur Düne von Pyla kann man einen schönen Weg von 40min durch den Wald nehmen. Wir hatten leider keine Räder dabei, das wäre ideal gewesen! Interieur hat Retro Charme, Duschbad ist modernisiert. Es ist alles da, was man braucht - und die Katze des Hauses hat uns auch gut getan! Genauso liebenswürdig wie die Gastgeberin. Man hat ausreichend Privatsphäre, da Wohnung und Terrasse uneinsehbar sind. Ein erholsamer Aufenthalt, vielen Dank!

Sehr angenehm, ruhig und sympathisch!

Wir hatten einen tollen Ferienaufenthalt in dem angenehmen, sauberen und mit allem Wichtigen ausgestatteten Appartement von Dany Goujon! Sie ist eine tolle Gastgeberin, immer hilfsbereit und freundlich. Die Lage der Wohnung ist perfekt, sehr ruhig und zu Fuß nur 7 bis 10 Minuten vom Meer entfernt, dazu bietet der große Garten genug Auslauf für die Kinder. Wir wollen unbedingt wiederkommen!! Vielen Dank für alles, Dany!

Très bon accueil, lieu calme, hôte très gentille

Nous sommes venus à 4 (2 adultes, 2 enfants) : le lieu est isolé mais à 5 minutes à pied de la plage, 15 minutes de la dune de Pyla. Voiture indispensable par contre pour faire les courses ou aller louer des vélos. Dany est très accueillante et gentille. Nous retenons ce lieu pour de prochaines vacances.

Wonderful!

The apartment is on the first floor of a very comfortable and spacious house at a quiet area. It is very close to the most interesting places in the region: the Dune of Pilat, Arcachon and Bordeaux. You don't need the car to go to the beach, it is only 10 min walk. The apartment is exactly as described. The territory is big and green. We enjoyed the view of the garden with beautiful pines from our windows. There are a lot of pines in this area. After visiting sights we could relax at a calm and peaceful place. The rooms were very clean and the kitchen was very well equipped. The owner Dany is a wonderful hospitable person. We were impressed by fantastic french wine that Dany provided us. We highly recommend the apartment because the location and the house are wonderful!
