5-Sterne Ferienhaus mit allen Vorzügen

Das Haus liegt in einem eigenen großen Garten. Es gibt eine Terrasse mit Tisch, Bänken und einem Holzkohle-Grill, eine Terrasse direkt vor dem Haus und eine hinter dem Haus. Wenn man das Haus betritt, kommt man in das große Wohn- und Esszimmer mit offener Küche. Die Küche ließ keinen Wunsch offen. Alle elektrischen und nicht elektrischen Geräte waren vorhanden. Im Kühlschrank wartete eine Flasche Wein auf uns - danke sehr herzlich dafür, Marie! Das Leitungswasser ist trinkbar und wirklich sehr gut. Es gibt ein großes Badezimmer mit begehbarer Dusche sowie eine kleine separate Toilette, wo auch die Waschmaschine steht. Ich hatte das erste Mal keine Rückenschmerzen nach ein paar Tagen - also auch für die Matratzen 5 Sterne! Alles ist liebevoll dekoriert, einfach wunderschön. Das Haus hat keine Klimaanlage - ist aber auch nicht nötig. Die Soundanlage im Wohnzimmer hat meine Männer (und auch mich) beeindruckt, der Fernseher war up-to-date und das WLAN stabil und schnell. Hinter dem Haus führt ein kleiner Weg fast direkt zum See und dem dazugehörenden Strand. Hier kann man dann auch das zum Haus gehörende SUP ausprobieren. Es gibt auch Bars und Restaurants dort. Wenn man zum Atlantik möchte, fährt man z.B. nach Mimizan Plage, etwa 15-20 Min. mit dem Auto oder 1,5 h mit dem Fahrrad. Die Fahrradwege sind übrigens gut ausgebaut. In Mimizan Plage haben meine Männer dann einen Kurs im Wellenreiten gebucht und die Zeit sehr genossen. Es gibt dort auch viele Restaurants, Cafés.

Un séjour trop court dans un cadre très agréable

Toute la famille a bien profité de ce grand week-end dans les Landes, dans une maison très agréable et très bien équipée. On est proche de la nature, au calme et l'accueil a été vraiment top ; Marie et son époux sont des propriétaires très attentionnés et forts sympathiques !
