Valerie's house is a lovely place to stay. The bedrooms are comfortable, and the house is in a quiet area. It is a pity it was not hot enough to use the pool! Valerie provided us with good information before arrival and greeted us at the house.
It is a 10 minute walk to the tram, and about half an hour to the centre of Bordeaux. There are some good restaurants in Merignac if you don't feel like going into Bordeaux.
I highly recommend staying here for a relaxing break!
