Thank you very much for the nice stay. We had a great time. The rooms in the first and second floor are very bright and big. The rooms in the lower etage
(seems to be a basement) are much cooler but not as bright. The building is old and a few things were not working at end of the week.
Very nice garden and a nice beach near by. For surfing we had to drive around 30min to another beach.
The sunsets are priceless!

Thank you for your comments Marielle !
For the littles things which were not working, we are sorry about it and hope it didn't bother you too much: every thing has been fixed since!
Don't hesitate next time to call us directly if something similar would occur during your stay. It is indeed an old house and some times, a little fix can become needed: stay assured that we do our best for your convenience!
Thank you very much again to have visit us with such a nice and young team of friends!
Einzigartige riesige Villa mit großem Garten ganz nah an einem wunderschönen Strand und nahe am Ortskern und Markt. Viel Platz und sehr gut ausgestattet. Einziges minimals Manko sind die etwas muffigen aber schönen Zimmer im Gartenbereich. Aber insgesamt ein wunderbarer Platz für Gruppenurlaub mit Kindern. Danke nochmal! Es war wunderbar!
Nous avons passer un très agréable séjour en famille!
On se sent bien dans cette grande demeure! Le jardin et les grandes pièces à vivre permettent à chacun d'avoir de l'espace.
Attention cependant aux barrières des différents balcons du premier étage qui ne sont pas aux normes pour les tous petits. Il faut être vigilant!
Villa très confortable et très bien équipée, idéale pour des réunions familiales .
Environnement très agréable et calme
Services et commerces à proximité
Grand jardin, belles terrasses et balcons vue sur mer
Villa de caractère très agréable , confortable et bien aménagée et parfaitement équipée pour des grandes familles
Une belle expérience à vivre
La maison est grande bien équipée "dans son jus" mais cela ajoute à son charme
La baignade est à déconseiller à marée basse à cause des rochers mais agréable à marée haute , mer calme et protégée des vagues, plage de sable fin moins fréquentée que la plage du centre

Très belle villa. Pas tout à fait en accord avec les photos qui sont sur le site (état général).
Endroit exceptionnel. Intérieur de la villa un peu fade en déco (couleur peintures) . Extérieur à soigner. Celà n'a pas gâché un séjour exceptionnel.

Magnifique demeure pour un séjour entre amis ou en famille
Nous avons passé un séjour formidable dans cette maison qui conjugue charme, authenticité et confort. Nous étions une vingtaine (adultes et enfants) et jamais nous ne nous sommes sentis à l'étroit. La maison est extrêmement bien équipée pour un groupe, bonne literie.

Excellentes vacances dans très très belle villa
Situation admirable, réellement à deux pas de la mer ( belle vue mer depuis trois chambres). Très très belle ancienne propriété, bien entretenue, bien restaurée, beaucoup d'espace, et jardin très agréable. Excellente literie. La cuisine serait à améliorer, cependant : trop petite pour pour pouvoir cuisiner facilement pour 20 personnes! Excellente location.

Moments inoubliable en famille
Nous avons passé des moments inoubliables en famille, dans cette grande demeure que nous avons très vite adoptée comme "notre maison de famille".
Nous avions loué les 2 maisons, elles sont très agréables et facile à vivre. Les grands balcons entourant la maison sont magnifiques, la grande terrasse était parfaite pour nos repas dehors et le jardin un plaisir pour les enfants. Avec la plage et des balades au bord de mer à quelques mètres, chacun trouvé son bonheur... à refaire. Je conseil vivement.

Fabuleux week end entre amis
Nous avons passé un merveilleux week end entre amis dans cette villa : 25 personnes dont 13 enfants et pas une seule fois nous avons eu le sentiment d'être à l'étroit. Les enfants ont tout de suite trouvé leurs repères dans la maison et le jardin.
La maison est très bien équipée, nous avons eu la chance d'avoir un temps exceptionnel ce qui nous a permis de profiter du jardin et de la plage située juste en sortant de la villa.
La villa est tellement agréable que nous sommes restés les 4 jours sur place avec des allers retours à la plage.
Nous envisageons déjà de revenir l'année prochaine et nous avons déjà fait la publicité de SOLEIL COUCHANT dans notre entourage.

Vacances exceptionnelles.
Maison merveilleusement belle, truffée d'endroits qui ont chacun leur charme, leur façon de vous émerveiller selon les heures de la journée, de la lumière, du temps. Décoration simple et raffinée, vues exceptionnelles, accueil très agréable et personnalisé. Un lieu d'exception pour des moments de convivialité familiale ou amicale. En plus de 1O jours, nous n'y avons pas découvert tous les charmes, y revenir s'impose. Pour des rencontres de qualité, n'hésitez pas: cette maison vous séduira.
