There is a large sheltered swimming pool and well laid out gardens of about 1 acre. Table tennis, swings and slide, sandpit, table football and bicycles are all available for use by clients. Sun beds and parasols are provided around the pool area and each gite has its own barbecue and table and chairs for outdoor eating.

Les Capucines is located in the hamlet of La Pilette, which is less than a mile from the village of Lussant. This village has a baker, butcher, general store and small post office, together with two cafes and a restaurant. Les Capucines is just 8 miles east of Rochefort-Sur-Mer. This is a historic naval town with many places of interest to visit including the Corderie Royal and the rebuilding of the naval ship the 'Hermione'. The property is ideal as a base to visit either the coast for a variety of beach/water activities, or to visit the regions many attractions - La Rochelle (for the pretty harbour and famous Aquarium), Cognac (to visit the distilleries and sample the produce), Royan (for the Zoo and the wide sandy beaches).

Fantastic gite - a real find!

Review Submitted: January 27, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2008
We have spent 2 wonderful holidays at Les Capucines - our first week was in L'Ecurie which was fantastic for the 4 of us. In 2008 we 'upgraded' to Le Maronnier and invited the grandparents along! We have 2 kids, now 7 and 5 and they absolutely love it. The grounds are just great to run around in, play games on, hunt for bugs and butterflies in! The pool is wonderful and had a great re-fit before last season. There is a swing and slide area and games area with table tennis table and dart board. Bikes are available to borrow - and there is normally one to fit most sizes! Karen and Paul are wonderful hosts - really welcoming, offering a daily bakery delivery in the morning and being on hand for any queries or questions. The area is brilliant to explore - lovely beaches and interesting towns nearby - loads to see, but a lovely Gite to spend the day relaxing in if you'd prefer. Le Maronnier is wonderful in side - huge kitchen with the biggest table I've seen in - and 3 good size bedrooms (1 down, 2 up) . Downstairs and upstairs bathrooms - the downstairs one only has a bath which is quite small but fine for kids! The kitchen has all the accessories you can think of and more.Can't wait to go back in the future! Janette, Dave, James and Rachel

Les Capucines

Wendy & Roy Milton Keynes, UK
Review Submitted: June 15, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2007
We have been to Les Capucines a couple of times. Karen & Paul are very welcoming and have set up Les Capucines to cater for everyone. The grounds are big enough for everyone to find a corner in the sun, and the swimming pool is well maintained. The gites are clean, fresh and comfortable; and beautifully furnished with all the trimmings. The area is off the beaten track but close enough to the coast to enjoy the amenities that the area has to offer. There is plenty in the area, and the weather has been good on each occasion. You can barbecue if the fancy takes you; cook in the well furnished kitchen, or eat out at a variety of restaurants depending on what you want to do. Karen & Paul are only too happy to point you in the right direction and make a recommendation. We would recommend this to families or couples.
