Summary: We had a fab 2 weeks at the property, beautiful area with many lovely towns and things to do within half an hour. La rochelle only 50 mins away was stunning! Bakery and restaurant in the village were great. The barn was very spacious (5 adults, 2 children) and lovely and cool in the heat that we had (30° + most days). There were a few issues with broken items while we were there but they were quickly resolved and replaced by the owners, who were very friendly. Only criticism would be that the barn needs some maintenance in areas, e.g cracked pane of glass in front door, outdoor lights that don't work. It's worth noting the glass conservatory at the front of the property, which there are no photos of. We put chairs infront of the doors to stop children walking straight into the full glass doors. I think if you have small children I would have concerns about the security around the pool and plunge pool at the back of the barn. The master bedroom downstairs with ensuite has no door! Just a voile curtain! You are also required to clean bathrooms, fridge, vacuum, etc before you leave at 9.30am which we've never been asked to do before in gites or cottages home or abroad. All being said we had a fantastic family holiday, great weather, and we could have easily stayed another week!

Summary: July 2019 Lovely 'rustic' French gite. Hazel was very welcoming and great to deal with - her and her partner's recommendations were greatly appreciated! We were 3 families with children, the pool was well used and was a great size and warm! House was located well for trips to various picturesque places to see and do. Oulmes itself is small with a restaurant come shop (on a main road so quite noisy outside) and a boulangerie. I'd say a car is essential but the house is within easy reach of supermarkets and markets in larger towns. Overall we had a great stay in a lovely part of France. Thanks Hazel

Summary: We enjoyed a lovely week in the house, sharing with another family. Hazel and David were superb hosts with lots of information concerning activities and visits. The location is excellent, set in a small village with a bakery, cafe and take-away pizza restaurant. A good supermarket was only a five minute drive away and it was the same distance to access the A83 Autoroute. Highlights from the stay were the solar heated pools, the amount of outdoor space, canoeing in the marshes, visiting La Rochelle and Puy du Fou. We had a fantastic time and would recommend it to other families.

Summary: The property was of high standard and comfortable whilst still feeling homely. The fridge freezer was especially useful delivering ice on tap. The BBQ was big enough for the 10 of us and easy to clean. The added games supplied saved bringing your own. Table tennis and badminton net kept children amused when chores had to be done. Overall good area for facilities with a variety of interesting places to visit.

Summary: We had an excellent time in this wonderful house. The booking process was easy and Hazel was very easy to contact and prompt to reply to any emails that I sent. The house itself is lovely and in a fantastic location, the pool was perfect and with it being heated the children loved it. It was safe with child proof gates. The inside of the house was perfect with lots of space and the children loved the playroom and the well stocked DVD shelf was great for them to chill out with! The bedrooms were spacious and very comfortable. Only downside was that they were very hot at night time, I think we were there for a particularly hot period. Hazel and David were on hand if we needed anything and the information pack that they left covered everything we needed. Overall a brilliant place to stay and we would not hesitate to stay again!

Summary: This property is ideal for large groups of families or friends - particularly those with children to entertain. There are enough different outside areas for people to have space from each other, alongside a lovely pool and outdoor (covered) lounge and games room, which the owners have put a lot of thought into. It was also very helpful to have Sky TV, a wide selection of books, DVDs and board games which, as a large family with children, we massively appreciated. We also loved the outside gazebo dining area, which can seat 12 or more adults, with children and there are two Barbecues for outside cooking. There is also an inside dining area, downstairs bedroom and showering facilities that are wheelchair accessible. Overall, therefore, the house was exactly what we were looking for. Just a couple of aspects we were less happy with e.g. a shower screen that fell off and the expectation that we, as guests would be providing a deep-clean of the property as well as vacating by 9.30a.m. As we had infants and a young baby with us, there was enough to do on the day of departure so we went for the alternative option of giving the owners another 100 Euros to get a local cleaner in. As this isn't a cheap property to rent, we felt this to be a bit unreasonable however, it didn't spoil the overall enjoyment of the holiday and We definitely enjoyed our week away here.

Summary: Good location with access to a lot of interesting places in a beautiful part of France. Plenty of advice and support from the owners on where to go. Excellent outdoor facilities although the pool a bit cold if the sun doesn't shine! Perfect for a large party with children - lots to keep them occupied day and night, indoors and out. Internally the downstairs shower room needs updating and the en-suite in the master bedroom really could do with a door instead of a curtain!

Summary: Beautifully maintained property supported by the owners in residence. Great facilities: swimming pool, games area, play area and outside eating areas. All this is set in a wonderful part of France with great walking and great eating experiences. Fabulous for a large family gathering. Can't wait to return.

Summary: We loved the whole property. The house was large, a little rustic but just as you would expect a period farmhouse. The pool was a good size and inviting, there was plenty of room in the grounds for the children to play freely with the open barn a bonus. The British owners are in the adjacent property close enough to seek their advice/help/assistance but they made themselves scarce enough to ensure we had the most peaceful time possible. Both made us feel so welcome and there were a number of careful touches such as beers in the fridge, DVD's, games and baby toys that demonstrated their desire for us to enjoy our stay.

Summary: We had a lovely stay at the Farmhouse, everything was perfect for our needs, two families with young children and grandparents. The kids really loved the space to run around in and the pool and open barn area were great. Really close to lots of interesting places, Puy du Fou is a must. Many thanks to Hazel & David who were on hand to give great advice. We hope to return in the near future.
