We really enjoyed our holiday in this nicely renovated cottage. It’s located in a quiet town with nice surroundings. We did a lot of excursions to nearby cities and beaches. In the spare time the teenagers could relax in the spa and pool. The owners were very friendly and helpful. We sure can recommend this accomodation!
Thanks so much for our fabulous stay - what a beautiful place with everything we needed for a relaxing week. So much character and history and great hosts. Appreciated the fan given the hot weather! Hope we can come back one day.
We came for a week in July.
The gite was as described. We were welcome to use the washing machine - which was useful.
The pool is small - ideal for a quick dip to cool down, or for small kids.
There are lots of mosquitoes - we got a lot of bites. With hindsight, would have taken anti-mossie stuff. 🤷♀️

A lovely family. Unfortunately due to the 2 heatwaves mosquitoes have been a problem in most places of France this year. Fortunately with a flowing river this is less of a problem here but have supplied future guests with anti-mossie plugins so that there are no problems within the gites.
Séjour magnifique, où nous avons pu profiter du jaccuzi.
Maison super bien décorée dans le charme anglais avec hôtes super gentils et à l'écoute... très bonne literie et cadre reposant. Merci à Louise et Mickeal pour leur gentillesse, nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir
Un cadre très sympathique et des hôtes très à l'écoute. Quelques odeurs d'humidité dans le logement mais nous étions entouré d'eau donc c'est normal

Wonderful location and fantastic hosts!
We loved our week in Pons and felt very much at home in our cosy cottage! Louise and Michael could not have been more welcoming and helpful! We received tips for attractions close to Pons and also further afield. Louise and Michael have done up the property with a lot of care and attention and clearly enjoy the presence of their guests. Pons is an attractive little town within walking distance. The 5 minute walk to the local bakery was an added bonus and we recommend their apricot tart! Talmont-sur-Gironde is only a short drive away and even St. Emilion can be reached in about an hour. We also thoroughly enjoyed the pool and the whirlpool! Thank you so much, we will be back!!!

Very clean, cosy, private, tranquil and relaxing.
The hosts Louise and Michael were very friendly and accommodating and made us feel most welcome. The gite was very comfortable and well equipped. Our morning walks around the several little islets of the mill were very relaxing and it was lovely to be in touch with nature. Restaurants and bakery all within a five minute walk. We would definitely recommend this property and area as a beautiful place to visit, especially if you're looking to relax and step back from everyday life.

Parfait!
Endroit de rêve, très beau, parfaitement au calme bien que dans la ville, entre les îles, les arbres et les bras d'eau.Plein de poissons pour les pêcheurs. Pons et ses alentours sont magnifiques.
Les propriétaires sont intéressants, chaleureux, présents juste quand il faut.
Un vrai petit paradis.
