Saint-Georges is a pleasant small holiday resort attractively laid out with extensive floral displays. Situated beside a large sheltered bay and a pine forest at the mouth of the river Gironde, the village is just south of Royan. The residence stands in its own grounds which give directly onto the beach and the sea and the town centre is 5 minutes' walk away. A car is therefore not necessary for shopping. There is a large sandy beach with safe bathing and activities for children. Royan, 5 minutes' drive away and also connected by bus, is the local centre, with a good selection of shops and a superb market, a large marina and activities for all ages. La Rochelle and Bordeaux are about an hour's drive away. The Bordeaux vineyards are within easy reach as is the Dordogne area. Charente is known for seafood, Cognac and Pineau. Details of interesting chateaux, Romanesque churches and old fortified towns to visit are in the flat, together with the addresses of good local restaurants.

Spa Centre: SEA-WATER SPA TREATMENT IS AVAILABLE ALL YEAR IN ROYAN AT THE WELL-KNOWN 'THALAZUR' CENTRE (A BROCHURE CAN BE SENT, IF REQUIRED). ONCE MORE, ST GEORGES HAS BEEN AWARDED A 'PAVILLON BLEU' (BLUE FLAG) FOR 2009 : THIS DEMONSTRATES THAT THE BEACH IS CLEAN AND THAT THE SEA WATER IS UNPOLLUTED. Some lines from the 'Pavillon Bleu' organisation : 'The 4 kilometre long beach of Saint Georges, protected by the rocky points of Vallières and Suzac, shows our exceptional environment. In the North, at the Pointe de Vallières, at the foot of the lighthouse, the nice little harbour is a haven of peace. In the South, the forest of Suzac gives harmoniously way to the houses built under the trees. The forest which is composed of many Mediterranean species of trees, shows a temperate oceanic climate. At last, facing the ocean, the city is at the mouth of the largest European estuary : The Gironde.' !!! 14TH JULY & 15TH AUGUST : SPECTACULAR FIREWORKS ON THE BEACH : IDEAL VIEW FROM THE BALCONIES !

COMMENTS FROM 2009 VISITORS :: COMMENTS FROM 2009 VISITORS : ' We had a brilliant time in St Georges. We thought the town was lovely and the view from your apartment stunning. The beach is great and, as the weather was so good all the time we were there, we were able to spend loads of time on it - which our children really enjoyed. We also loved exploring the area, which we had never visited before, and thought it was very beautiful. We have not decided what to do for our holiday in August next year but returning to St Georges is certainly a possibility. Would your apartment be free again ?' (August 2009 - A family of 4 persons from Middlesex) COMMENTS FROM 2008 VISITORS : 'Had a great time in such a lovely place' (June 2008 - Two couples from Sheffield) -

''We had a great time in St Georges - a lovely area and the apartment is in a great spot for people watching as well as trips to the beach. I was in swimming every morning before breakfast - great - Merci' (July 2008 - A family of 3 persons from Scotland) - 'Thank you, we had a wonderful time. The location was just perfect'' (August 2008 - A family of 4 persons from Somerset) - ''Saint-Georges was as lovely as ever and still as nice as the apartment'' (August 2008 - Second visit for a family of 5 persons from Bedforshire). 'Fantastic time with our daughter, the place was just perfect for a family. Very pleasant and comfortable apartment, ideal view from the balcony. Having our breakfast on the sea front was so relaxing ! The beach opposite the flat is very nice and everything right on your doorstep. No need for a car. Ideal place for a family. Activities for children. The flat is also very clean and well decorated. Would love to come back.Very helpful landlord.'

Other Activities: Children's beach clubs, sand-yachting (not available in July/August)

Family Holiday

Review Submitted: August 10, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We have just returned from two weeks holiday and it could have not been better, we came home on the 9th Aug 09. We have been to France eight times in the last nine years and this has been one of the best holidays we have had. Myself and my wife who are 46 and 45, plus we have two sons aged 17 and 11 also we had the grandparents who are in there 70s with us. First the apartment was fantastic loads of space,tv,dvd,washing machine, local information good, attractions further a field good. It was great to have all our food on the balcony over looking the sea. The caretaker was always there if you need him. Too sum the holiday up we are booking again next year for three weeks.

Very happy family
Kevin & Carol

We have thoroughly enjoyed our week in this delightful apartment - in particular the fabulous sea views. Just as the owner describes, the apartment is very well equipped and extremely well placed to enjoy the lovely sandy beach and the local area with or without a car. Very easy walking access to the beach, local bars, restaurants, markets and shops. Excellent customer service from the owner providing valuable information and contact details.

Our holiday in August

Dinard Fleet
Review Submitted: September 4, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
We had a fantastic time with our daughter and the place was just perfect for a family. The flat is very pleasant and confortable and the view from the balcony is great. Getting up in the morning and having our breakfast on the sea front was so relaxing and well worth the experience. The beach opposite the flat is very nice and everything is right on your doorstep, you don't need your car. I have found the place ideal when you have a family. There are always activies for children. The flat is also very clean and well decorated. We would love to come back in the future. Thank you to the landlord who has always been helpful. Merci.
