About this property

Character stone period villa for up to 15 near all amenities with swimming pool

Welcome to Le Grand Lamarque! The following details are flexible guidelines which can be discussed prior to the contract being entered into:

1. Guests up to 15 are welcome while the minimum booking is fixed at 10 people. A smaller party may book but the price will still be fixed for 10 guests.

2. Parties with guests under the age of 25 are not permitted. This is a dwelling more suitable for families and adults travelling together.

3. Pets are unfortunately not permitted except in very special circumstances for allergies reasons.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE HOUSE:

The lounge is an open space with a dining area sitting 16 people around the antique table and decorated in a traditional country style with Victorian and French antique furniture. Above it, there is a mezzanine with 2 bar football tables. The dining room composes the other half of this open space and has an antique Victorian table which sits 16 people.

The main white kitchen is simple in design and is fully equipped with an oak table and 6 chairs.

There is a TV room also equipped with a small library containing children's books, mostly in English. The laundry room is adjacent to the TV room. It has a washing machine, a dryer, a double sink and some laundry products which are usually complimentary for the first wash. This laundry room leads to a separate wing of the property also accessible through an outside corridor which contains an extra large bedroom. It is equipped with an ultra modern double bed with LEDs and hanging space for clothes. It also contains a mini gym facility.

On the 1st floor, the property offers 1 double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, 2 King size bedrooms and a king size bed and a comfortable sofa-bed in addition to a family large bathroom. There is a newly refurbished double bedroom and a separate bathroom on the ground floor. There is a very large bedroom with a double bed and a single bed in a separate wing of the house offering accommodation for the 3 guests.

There is a cot, a high chair, 2 toilet seats and a step for infants to help them feel confident and independent in their use of the facilities. This home loves families and endeavours to provide assistance to everyone, including young guests who are the owner's favourite clients!

There are 2 kitchens in the property including one in the main house and the other one at the swimming pool.

The pool is set in the front garden away from the main property. The lights inside the pool create a visually pleasing effect in the evening.

The pool is heated for extra comfort during the months of November to May; the region has a warm climate and temperatures can reach up to 43°C in the summer. Sometimes, it can be cooler but as a general rule, the pool will not be heated during the months of June to October.

The open plan pool kitchen has an electrical hob, a sink with a waste disposal unit, a fridge, some well appointed shelves, 2 tables sitting 12 people altigether on the pool area and another round table in the shade sitting up to 8 people comfortably.

There is a front garden just outside the main lounge with a pleasant stone table and seats, ideal for afternoon tea or early evening drinks. The owner calls it her "Gin and Tonic station"! There is also a garden around the pool grounds and one at the back of the house; all 3 being accessible via a long drive.

The property features free unlimited Wi-Fi and a phone to receive calls from your friends and family.

This unpretentious but imposing villa is situated in a village where farming constitutes the majority of activities. Tractors might drive past at a slow speed and make some noise, and the occasional farming smell might reach you when a gust of wind blows towards the house.

The neighbours are not too close to the house; they are far enough to give you almost total privacy. They are all well-intentioned, helpful, and welcoming!

About the host

Hosted by Helene

Host profile image
Hello! I have travelled extensively but the Landes department is still my favourite destination in the whole wide world. Truly. It is so authentic, unspoiled and relatively unknown. There is no fuss. There is no artifice. Life over there is uncomplicated and revolves around simple but essential values. You are surrounded by everything that you can possibly need plus the tranquility and sense of balance that nature wraps around your mind.

I hope you like my home because through it, I would love to welcome you into my world of real family values and authentic living. Welcome!

Why they chose this property

Le Grand Lamarque is a typical period Maison de Maître which oozes with rustic authenticity and country character. It appeals to families with a passion for French traditions in search for genuine style combined with good facilities.

The property is situated in a village and while this allows you to benefit from the peace and quiet of such a location, you are also next to all amenities within a few minutes drive. It is safe for children and in turn, this gives parents the opportunity to worry a bit less than in other locations.

This villa welcomes guests throughout the year: experiencing Christmas in this warm home has an old fashion touch of magic while the summer offers pure indulgence and rest. Easter is known to have impredictable temperatures but the egg hunts are delightful. The autumn period is colourful and romantic and can be split between exploring the region and creating unforgettable family memories.

You can do as much or as little as you want as the region abounds in activities especially if you enjoy physical challenges.

Day trips to the beach are excellent as you get the best of both worlds: you embrace the atmosphere of the busy sea resorts but come back to the quietness of your spacious home.

It is a pure paradise for children and a delight for teenagers and young adult as they are able to have parties around the pool until reasonable times (set by law) in the evening and under adult supervision. The nearby Olympic swimming pool can provide hours of fun at extremely low prices while parents play golf across the road.

Fresh croissants and pains au chocolat (called chocolatines in the region!) are available from numerous patisseries in the nearby town in less than 5 minutes by car.

All supermarkets and restaurants are within a similar distance, placing the property in a very convenient location.

The property is situated in farmland with occasional slow tractors driving past and natural fertilizers used sometimes.

What makes this property unique

To me, the location of this property makes it one of its best features. It is a place which enables you to take a step back in order to reconnect with family values, nature and "real France" while not feeling isolated. It is my personal hidden treasure!
