Phillippe and Isabelle were perfect hosts. They were very welcoming when we arrived, offering to help us with our bags as well. They even gave us a box of local cakes, croissants and fresh fruit which was a lovely touch. The apartment/annex is lovely, with plenty of light, space, storage and had everything we needed. There is a nice area outside for dining and relaxing, quite private from the rest of the house too. The pool is a good size, perfect for a dip at the end of a hot sunny day. It is situated right next to a very large and beautiful forest with pathways and cycle tracks, all very flat and suitable for all ages. There are a few restaurants nearby, and Bordeaux is only 30 mins away by car, lovely city with lots of shopping and restaurants/bars. In the other direction, the ocean is only about 45mins drive. Lovely beaches and restaurants also. Would highly recommend to anyone seeking a relaxing countryside holiday with easy access to Bordeaux. Thank you both, a lovely stay indeed!
