Sehr schöne Auszeit

Bettina and Jochen Duesseldorf, Germany
Review Submitted: August 15, 2009 Date of Stay:
This July we spent two restful weeks in “La Petit Pommerai”. We liked the house from the first sight. Everything we found as promised in the internet. The description from the house and the
interior was right. All things were on the right place. The bright, friendly was with complete equipment. Most of all, everything was very clean. Also we liked to sit on the terrace in the
wonderful great garden and enjoyed the peaceful evenings. Angela is very hospitable and has done a great job in renovation of the old houses. We got a very useful description how to arrive. Thanks to her for everything. The house is very central to reach all the wonderful beaches and the lovely towns in the surrounding. After all we were very sorry to leave and we are looking forward for our next stay.

Fantastic retreat

Review Submitted: August 8, 2009 Date of Stay:
We stayed in the cottage for a week at the beginning of August, the weather was great. The cottage was very spacious, comfortable and well equipped for our family of 2 adults, 1 teenager and 1 dog. The garden is quite large and very well maintained and although it is shared with the other accommodation, the shrubs and trees give plenty of privacy. Angela was very helpful and accommodating giving us any information we needed about the area. The river close by was very clean and slow running making it ideal for swimming and boating. Saintes is a beautiful historic town with great markets selling fresh produce most days. There are also picturesque villages near by with restaurants, bistros and boating equipment to hire. Overall we had a fantastic, restful holiday and our only complaint is that we didn't book for longer.

A peaceful haven

Tombi North Somerset, England
Review Submitted: May 24, 2009 Date of Stay:
Our stay here was a real delight. The accommodation was first class.... a bright, tasteful yet sympathetic conversion of an old building, providing every comfort. If we needed anything the owner was always very pleasant and helpful.
The surrounding area is really lovely, with a beautiful river flowing only a few hundred yards away. We used the canoe and had a marvellous day gently paddling through idyllic surroundings, stopping for tea and ice creams en route.
We also loved the ancient town of Sainte with its bustling market and cafes set amongst stunning architecture. The Roman amphitheatre is well worth a visit.
Our whole experience was truly memorable, and we'd recommend a stay here to anyone.

Lovely homey holidays in rural area

Heitemeyer Germany
Review Submitted: August 5, 2008 Date of Stay:
We spend two calm weeks in a lovely small domicile near the river Charente. Every day we do trips to touristic highlights in the area and to the atlantic coast. It was warm and sunny nearly every day and a breeze from the atlantic made an outside stay wonderfull.

Erholsame und interessante Familienferien

Klaus, Monika und Kinder CH-7206 Igis, Schweiz
Review Submitted: July 20, 2009 Date of Stay:
Wir verbrachten wunderbare zwei Wochen im Etable Ganz, zwei Erwachsene und drei Kinder. Die Lage ist ruhig, ländlich und bietet eine perfekte Mischung von alter Bausubstanz und modernem Komfort. Einfach aber sehr geschmacksvoll eingerichtet, ist das Ferienhaus eine Oase für die Erholung und die Entspannung. Die Besitzerin ist hilfsbereit, freundlich und aufgestellt, es machte jedesmal richtig Spass mit ihr zu schwatzen. Aus diesem zentral gelegenen Ort kann man die ganze Region Charente erkunden, mit seinen vielfältigen Angeboten: wunderschöne entlegene Küsten (Grand Cote), interessanter Austernanbaugebiet (Marennes), einladende Inseln (Ré, Oleron, Aix), Cognacgebiet, mittelalterliche Schlösser, atemberaubende Steinbrüche (Crazannes), überaschende Landstreiche voller Kanäle (marais poitevins), etc. Ideal zum Fahrradfahren, zu Fuss erkunden und sich von der lokalen Küche verwöhnen zu lassen. Mit oder ohne Kinder eine gemütliche und unvergessliche Feriendestination.
