Annie’s place was in a perfect location for us, with a dog friendly beach just a few minutes away. The accommodation had everything we needed and Annie was super friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend.

It was a pleasure to welcome such charming guests.
Thank you for having trust me. Anne
We liked the quiet yet near beach location, calm and fountained little green garden and accessible car park.
House and kitchen was clean and reasonably well equipped and for a week of cooking our own meals we especially liked that consumables like spices, detergents and so forth were readily available.
Anne was a helpful, welcoming hostess.

We had a graet time on the Ile de Re, as well as the Cottage of Anne, even our dog felt comfortable.
Anne welcomed us warmly and explained everything.
Maybe we will come back again.

A lovely place to be
We had a wonderful time in Ostreane. The house ist perfect, was well cleaned and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped with all you need, especially the small Espresso machine. We've loved to sit in the garden and had a Barbecue for lunch or dinner. Even with our dog on the beach it was no problem.
Many thanks Annie for a beautiful holiday in your charming little home, many greetings also from our daughter Julia.

Hello Simone and Uli, you are very kind, thank you. My best pleasure is to know that you had a lovely time in my little house.
With a big hug to lovely Julia and a nice stroke to Robin.
Superb property in a stunning location. We were so comfortable in this beautiful holiday home which had everything you could need. Ann was there to greet us with a friendly smile and she had been so accommodating during the booking process. We couldn't have asked for better and this will most definitely go down as one of our best holidays. Wall to wall blue skies and sun helped of course. Oh and of course a very atmospheric beach bar just a few yards away contributed as well. Thank you Ann for letting us stay in your lovely home with our little dog Bene. Liz and Chris Boys

Merci à vous deux de votre gentillesse.
En effet, après votre départ, j'ai fait couper toutes les branches portant des fruits. La terrasse est maintenant totalement dégagée et je ferai en sorte qu'elle demeure ainsi.
Bonne continuation et bonne santé à tous y compris à la belle Kalissa.
Au plaisir. Anne
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans une région magnifique. L'hôtesse est très accueillante, disponible et a visiblement à cœur de nous permettre de passer un agréable moment. Le gîte est propre, bien équipé, à deux pas de la plage et le petit jardin entièrement clos était parfait pour nos toutous qui ont adoré leurs vacances autant que nous !
Nous avons été très bien accueilli par Mme Townsend, très à l'écoute et personne très agréable. Emplacement maison très calme. Location effectuée en hiver.

Bonsoir,
Ce fut un plaisir de vous recevoir et je vous remercie d'avoir pris soin de la maison.
Bonne continuation à tous.
L’hôte est parfaite, d’une grande gentillesse, le lit était fait, la maison propre, tous les appareils en très bon état de fonctionnement. De plus nos animaux ont été acceptés sans soucis, au contraire notre hôte adore les chiens. Nous reviendrons volontiers.
Sehr charmantes, ruhig gelegenes Haus mit hübschen kleinen Garten, der komplett abgeschlossen ist, so dass Hunde dort frei laufen können. Der Strand ist fußläufig in wenigen Minuten erreichbar. Die Gastgeberin Anne ist sehr sympathisch und war jederzeit ansprechbar. Wir und unsere Hunde haben den Aufenthalt in dem Haus sehr genossen und kommen gerne wieder.
Unser Aufenthalt war sehr schön. Anne ist sooo liebenswert und Hundefreundlich. Das Haus liegt zentral zum Strand (300m) und zum Bäcker (1km). Die nächst schöneren Orte wie saint Martin oder La Flotte sind ca.15 min mit dem Auto entfernt. Dort sind tolle Geschäfte und Restaurants aber auch ein schöner Hafen. Es bietet sich wirklich an ein Fahrrad mitzubringen oder zu mieten weil man im Grunde die ganze Insel mit dem Fahrrad erkunden kann - super Fahrradwege. Das Haus hat einen abgeschlossenen kleinen Garten in dem man es besonders an warmen Tagen gut aushalten kann weil ein großer Feigenbaum Schatten spendet. Das Haus ist ansonsten liebevoll und zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Es ist nur ein minibackofen vorhanden-nur zur Info. Ansonsten alles was man braucht.
Nous avons passé une semaine très agréable dans cette charmante maison rhétaise parfaitement équipée et très propre.Nous avons apprécié ainsi que notre chienne Vanille le jardin ombragé. Lire sous le figuier a été vraiment un plaisir surtout avec la chaleur qui s'est invitée en milieu de semaine ! Rivedoux est un village très sympa et la piste cyclable se trouve à proximité de la location.Quant à notre hôtesse, Anne, nous ne pouvons que la remercier chaleureusement pour son accueil, sa gentillesse et sa disponibilité. Si vous voulez passer d'excellentes vacances n'hésitez pas à réserver cette maison. Je vous la conseille à 200% !
Propriétaire aux petits soins, gîte très bien aménagé et sécurisé pour les chiens, un lieu de départ parfait pour découvrir facilement l'île. À recommander !

Why they chose this property
My family being from Ile de Ré, and having enjoyed it so much in my youth, I propose the discovery of Rivedoux to share this happiness.
What makes this property unique
Two years ago, I fell for this little house which was in a bad state. I had guessed that it could become lovely and cosy. Now, it's done and my travellers seem delighted. As it's a few steps from the seshore and has a very good exposure, the Ostreane is perfect for nice holidays.
