Luxury Manor mit Blick auf den Fluss und ist romantischer Garten, Coved Schwimmbad

We had a delightful stay at La Coqueitiere in July 2018. The property is marvelous, very secluded with virtually no traffic on the surrounding roads. The pool is wonderful and everything exceeded our expectations.

The owners Claudine and Christophe were very welcoming and pleasant, and although they live onsite you would not have know they were there the majority of the time.

A particular treat was Claudine providing fresh fruit and vegetables from the garden.

My husband and I stayed for a week with his mother and father and our dog. On arrival, Claudine welcomed us warmly, and showed us around the house and grounds. We were made to feel very welcome, and to treat the place as home. We were encouraged to walk in the grounds and surrounding fields, use the range of available bicycles to explore and to make use of the fantastic pool!

The house: Lovely and cool to come into from the heat of the sun. Full of character with beams, stone floors and walls. An open fire (that we did not use...!). The bedrooms were comfortable, although us English found the weather a bit hot, so a fan may be useful for comfortable sleeping. Very clean, wonderfully furnished and we thoroughy enjoyed the evenings in that we spent at La Coquetiere.

The pool/grounds: The pool was a perfect temperature - refreshing but not shocking!There are plenty of loungers - 6 or 7 I believe... there is not a lot of shade - one umbrella, which I sat under most of the time being the palest! However if there had been a few of us"pastey-types", it would have been difficult to all sit in shade. The flowers surrounding the pool area are gorgeous, with butterflies and dragonflies dancing in and out - just magical. The gardens are beautiful, and we regularly walked round. Perfect for kids to play in - hide and seek would be great I imagine! There is a marshy pond area to be aware of however.

The hosts: Claudine is very welcoming and relaxed. We hardly saw Claudine of Christophe the whole week - perhaps 3 times? So you don't feel at all like you are sharing someone's house - it feels like your own! And how we all wish it was our own...

The location: Lovely place to go in the middle of agricultural france. Definitely need a car!! Very rural, with vineyards about 20 minutes away. Plenty of Chateaus around as well. All in all a lovely place, very rural, peaceful and thoroughly enjoyable.

Merci bien!!

Accueil sympathique de Claudine et Christophe, avec la surprise de quelques produits régionaux,.

La maison est très agréable, mais il serait souhaitable d'avoir en inter saison un

sèche-serviettes électrique, en appoint.

Jardin superbement entretenu, piscine très propre.

Warm welcome. Idyllic setting in an area overflowing with things to see and do. The property, all restored and built by Monsieur has everything tha.t you could need and Madame could not have been more charming and welcoming.

The house is a lovely old building, nicely renovated with lots of original features, comfortably furnished and beautifully clean. The kitchen is small but equipped with all the gadgets you need and there are good modern bathroom facilities with great showers.

We enjoyed most of our meals in the courtyard, beautifully shaded by the mimosa tree. The hotplate/barbeque was put to good use with al frescoe dining on a couple of occasions.

The highlight for us was the pool, which is salt water - no nasty chemicals! We made good use of the many loungers and the spa.

Claudine and Christophe live in the adjoining part of the house, but they were in no way intrusive. They were really helpful and were very generous with the delicious fresh produce from their kitchen garden. There are large well tended grounds open to guests and we enjoyed strolling through the avenues and walk ways.

For any star gazers the skies are light pollution free and provide very clear viewing with the pool side loungers proving very useful for looking up and binocular gazing.
