Family friendly getaway

We hade a wonderful stay, absolutely beautiful garden with lots of games (our kids enjoyed snooker, table tennis, boule and biking) and a lovely pool area. The countryside had many tracks for running and biking. Tim and Ellen were great hosts that really made us feel most welcomed and we warmly recommend this getaway.

Excellent séjour au calme

Toute la famille a adoré le séjour. Le logement est agréable et tout est mis à disposition pour passer de bons moments : piscine, grand terrain, trampoline, billard, baby-foot.. Les propriétaires sont très sympathiques et charmants. Des promenades sympa à faire dans ce joli petit village, des visites intéressantes à programmer dans ce département méconnu et quelques spécialités culinaires à découvrir... Si vous rêvez de passer des vacances loin de l'agitation, c'est le lieu parfait !

Superbe séjour dans les Deux-sèvres.

Nous avons loué pour une semaine le gîte de La vieille maison, très heureux de ce choix, nous avons passé de superbes moments en famille. Le gîte est grand, charmant et très fonctionnel, il y a tout ce qu'il faut pour passer de bonnes vacances. Les hôtes Tim et Ellen sont très accueillants, gentils et discrets. Une multitudes d'activités est possible sur place, les enfants ne peuvent pas s'ennuyer ! La piscine, trampoline, baby foot, billard, fléchettes, croquet, badminton, foot.... Le tout sur une magnifique propriété, parfaitement entretenue, arborée et fleurie. Pleins de belles visites et activités à faire aux alentours. Pour des vacances à la campagne, dans le calme et la sérénité n'hésitez plus !! Nous, on aurait bien passé une semaine de plus.

About the host

Hosted by Tim & Ellen Weir

Why they chose this property

We work hard to ensure that our self-catering properties create a holiday environment that maximises the enjoyment of both adults and children. To call the garden and grounds an adventure playground is perhaps an over-statement, but there is much to stimulate and provide hours of pleasure for all. This allows everyone to relax on the terrace or poolside, knowing that they don't have to continually think of what to do next.
There is much of interest in the area and those without the constraints of school timetables can enjoy the location with all its peace and tranquillity.

What makes this property unique

Rural location but not too far from civilisation! Sunken trampoline so safe for all ages. Games' rooms and boules pitch. Lovely shared swimming pool and superb gardens. The cottages are tidy and well kept and are all fully equipped. Plus free wifi.
