A super-relaxing place in a great location. The house was very well equipped and the tennis court and pool well maintained. We had a great family holiday here. Everything you need is close by - a well stocked Co-op, amazing restaurants and lots of activities, if kayaking, walking or cycling is your thing. Host was very helpful. Highly recommended

The property was perfect for our party of seven. Good size bedrooms, well equipped kitchen and nice living area. Outside space was excellent with a big dining table and gas grill. The pool was excellent and at just the right temperature. The tennis and petanque court were an added bonus. The owner was very helpful and made us feel welcome. The house is in a very pretty village with nice walks along the river. Overall a great property for adults and families

A beautiful house with lovely garden and pool

We had a fabulous week at this beautiful property. It is very tastefully decorated including original artwork and the rooms are light, airy and cool. It is very private with a gorgeous shaded terrace and enormous garden with a lovely, large heated pool. It is in a very pretty village where you can hire rowing boats on the canal and with restaurants and bars and a little supermarket for bread etc. Jean-Luc and Frederique are just next door if you need them and are very friendly. The area is lovely too with La Rochelle in easy driving distance if you can tear yourself away from the lovely house! A superb holiday home!

A really nice holiday

We all enjoyed our stay and communication with the owner was excellent. It's a perfect house for teenagers, they played tennis, badminton, boules and the WIFI was pretty good. The highlight was the pool which was fantastic and warm enough that the boys even swam when it was raining. The house had everything we needed for a self catering holiday and we cooked every evening. We had a few very hot days and the house stayed cool inside. We liked Arcais and enjoyed hiring a boat and eating at the restaurant by the river. We used the small supermarket a few times and it's really well stocked.We had days out in La Rochelle and the Ile de Re which are not far at all.

We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay at the property, there is a much smaller gite in close vicinity but they have no access to the gardens, pool and tennis court all of which are completely private and for your exclusive use. We had amazing weather, so spent many a day in and around the pool. The property is well maintained and the kitchen has everything that you would require. The host was very communicative and always responded to any messages promptly.The village of Arcais is lovely, with pleasant walks along the river, bicycle and boat hire and a couple of restaurants, the highlight was Le Patio d'Arçais restaurant, do book. All and all, we had a wonderful week and I'd certainly recommend the property.

Perfect verblijf.

We hebben met totaal 9 personen een week in dit ruime huis vakantie gevierd. Het huis is voorzien van verwarmd zwembad (28 gr) en tennisbaan met betonvloer. Beide perfect. Onze kinderen tussen 14 en 21 jaar hebben er samen met hun ouders veel plezier gehad. ‘s-avonds spelletjes op het terras. Het huis is ruim en schoon. Keuken riant en voorzien van grote eettafel (10 pers). Op het terras beschik je over een planchet (bakplaat op gas). Een kleine supermarkt is op 200 m afstand aanwezig, ook voor het dagelijks verse brood perfect. Enige opmerking is dat het lossen van de vrachtwagen voor de supermarkt steeds vroeg in de ochtend (4:30 uur) gebeurd wat met de ramen van de slaapkamers geopend, geluidsoverlast veroorzaakt.

Week-end en famille.

Séjour très agréable. Hôte accueillant et réactif. Environnement au top !! Piscine, tennis, terrain de boules sur place et très bien entretenus. Commerces, office du tourisme et promenades à proximité immédiate. Petit bémol concernant les pièces d'eau et toilettes : seulement 2 salles de bain pour 7 adultes et 2 enfants, un peu juste pour l'organisation avec un départ du gîte à 10 heures....

Beautiful house and gardens

We had an absolutely lovely week here at the end of August. The host met us with his two sons who both spoke excellent English. We were two families of 4 and the house was a perfect size and very clean. The pool and tennis court and gardens were fabulous. The lady who runs the Coop up the road is lovely and smiley and it sells enough of everything that you could probably just shop there if you didn't want to drive to a bigger supermarket. We also went to Le Patio which is literally a few minutes walk from the house and the food was amazing. A short walk up the road takes you to a pontoon where you can hire boats to paddle up the river and there is a cafe/bar selling delicious ice creams overlooking the pontoon. Would recommend Ile de Re, we went twice and the beach at Gros Joncs was really beautiful with soft sand. Lovely area and a really relaxing break thanks to this beautiful property.
