Summary: Thomas was a very welcoming and kind host with lots of little touches. The accommodation is great and well equipped, with lots of games for the children. We were a family of 8 and we all enjoyed the stay. We took advantage of the gas bbq. I highly recommend this accommodation.

Summary: Our stay at Mossy's beautiful house in the French countryside was perfect. After a long drive, we were warmly welcomed by Mossy who had thoughtfully prepared a welcome basket which was exactly what we needed. He was kind and attentive, yet respected our privacy, allowing us to fully enjoy the tranquility of the surroundings. We were two families with 4 children between the age of 7 and 15. We all enjoyed the house that had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We spent our days enjoying the swimming pool, playing football, table tennis, having BBQ's in the spacious garden. The game room was a highlight, where we held fun family tournaments in darts, pool and baby football, creating memories we will cherish. The nearby village of Nanteuil was a short walk away, we loved exploring its charming streets and picking up fresh bread in the morning. Mossy and his team were available if we needed anything. Their hospitality made our stay enjoyable. We couldn't have asked for a better holiday and would highly recommend this wonderful property.

Summary: The listing for this property does not in anyway show off how excellent this place really is. The grounds are much bigger than the photos illustrate, with sports items for every sport we could imagine. The entertainment functionality, pool, football, books, movies, games, it was like having a youth club in your accommodation. It kept four teenagers out of our hair for the whole holiday, not once did we hear a single "I am bored, or are we doing anything today", you just cant buy that kind of peace and quiet on a holiday with teenagers. One of the best bits though was the owner, his thoughtful additions, little tips on the area and places we might visit, and the little add ons, just transformed the holiday from great to outstanding. Five stars is not enough.

Summary: Lovely, spacious property in a very peaceful location. We stayed 19 nights to use as a base for house hunting and although the weather prevented us from spending more time relaxing on the lovely terrace it didn't spoil our enjoyment of this holiday. Comfy beds and plenty of space to relax in, we throughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful location. About 15 mins from Ruffec it strikes the perfect balance between isolation(peace & quiet) and being close enough to your shopping needs. If we ever plan to spend more time in this area I would definitely stay here again. Mossy, the owner, was in regular communication both prior to and during our stay so we had no worries about anything.

Summary: We were looking for somewhere to stay for a long period while we were house hunting. We wanted space, peace and quiet but not too far from amenities. This lovely farmhouse fitted the bill perfectly and Thomas was a most welcoming and generous host. 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms meant space for our many guests and with Nanteuil only a 30 minute walk away through the woods and Ruffec 10 minutes in the car, we wanted for nothing. When we had an offer accepted on our new house, Thomas brought a bottle of champagne round to celebrate - most kind. The little hamlet of La Courriere felt like home and we were sad to leave.

Summary: As an adult group of family and friends, plus two dogs, we had a fantastic time at Thomas's lovely house. The rooms were spacious and comfortable and plenty of parking for several cars. The outside space was beautiful - private and perfect for enjoying the evening sun, swimming pool, BBQ, plenty of sunbeds for lazy reading. We also enjoyed cycle rides and great walks with the dogs. Brilliant too was the enormous games room where several evenings of table football, table tennis, darts and pool challenges were enjoyed - not to mention dancing til 2 am in the large lounge. Helpful to have 2x large fridges (one for the wine/beer!). The whole experience from start to finish was fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed the 2 weeks and Thomas phoned before and during to ensure we had all we needed with the support of his local team - who were also brilliant. Thanks Thomas for a fantastic stay.

Summary: Rented this house for myself and four children while we were visiting the area. Thomas's house could not have been more perfect. Well equipped, spacious, comfortable and with all amenities that we could ever dreamt of. The weather was terrible while we were staying which meant a lot of time in the house buy there was never a dull moment given the extensive games room. We were very well looked after and would definitely recommend. Thank you for creating this wonderful home.

Summary: The house and backyard are beautiful, comfortable, very functional, and theyโ€™re even better than they look in the photos. It was an absolutely perfect stay for 3 adults, a toddler, and a dog (with extra room to spare). The exceptionally kind host Thomas (Mossy) has everything you might need on hand, including multiple cribs and baby gates, toys and books, a wide variety of cooking utensils, and more. He even kindly offered the toddler of our group little gifts throughout the week, and a generous welcome basket with drinks and snacks. He was also very understanding when car troubles required an late departure and even went through the trouble to drop us off in a nearby village so we could catch a taxi to our replacement car. In all my years renting accommodations in France and abroad Iโ€™ve never had such a hospitable and accommodating host. Although the house and property are wonderful on their own, Thomas really went above and beyond to ensure we had an excellent holiday. He lives next door in case you need anything, but is also discreet and of course respected our privacy. The location is rural and quiet, with some forest paths nearby for easy peaceful walks. The area is not overly popular with tourists, which is lovely because nothing feels over crowded. Nevertheless, there are several charming villages nearby with restaurants and bakeries, as well as a few castles and other historical landmarks to visit. Thank you so much Mossy for a wonderful stay, we canโ€™t wait to come back.

Summary: Having read lots of reviews in the past I am well versed with the Gucci words and phrases that people use. However I am lost for words to describe our holiday. We went here as a family of 8 adults and 4 children including a baby. Our total experience was overwhelming. Fantastic and brilliant in all aspects. Just what we were looking for. A holiday in France where the grandchildren could run about enjoying themselves without any fear or worries. The older ones of the party could then spend their time relaxing and taking in the beautiful countryside. Not to mention the great food. Not a moment went by when we were not enjoying ourselves. Mossy our host - a top Man. Just great. Made sure we arrived safely at the ferry port. Met us on arrival with a cool beer and was always available for a chat or advice on where to visit. The place was great and served us well. Well maintained and tidy. We had no issues at all while we were there. The area was so peaceful at night. It was great. If you are looking to stay in a proper rural location in a proper French house then you will not be disappointed. Fantastic villages to visit and don't forget the local markets. Supermarkets and fuel stations close to hand. Watch out for the Sunday opening hours though. Definately going back again. Thanks Mossy from us all.
