We loved our stay in Nadine's apartment (family of 4, kids 9 and 6 yrs). It was a short ride in a cab from the airport. Nadine was away but had messaged to say her neighbour, Dominque would be welcoming us. Dominique was easily contactable by text and phone extremely helpful, for the duration of our stay, even driving me to a local shop for provisions!
The apartment is a short walk from a tram stop and 4 or 5 decent restaurants, boulangeries etc. Central Bordeaux less than 20 mins once on the tram. We spent 4 lovely days sightseeing and were very pleased to head back in the afternoon to the wonderful pool...the kids especially!
The apartment is a comfortable home from home and as its gated (code for entry) it feels very secure. We enjoyed our stay immensely, and would not hesitate to recommend.
