Fabulous break
This was our second visit to this lovely house, and once again did not disappoint, this is the perfect home for a multi generational holiday, plenty of room for everyone to chill and relax. Great location, scenic walks, lovely restaurants locally and the best swimming pool, only a short drive into La Rochelle. A lovely and accommodating host who met us on arrival and was easy to contact if we had any queries. I can’t recommend highly enough.

Fantasique
Such a lovely property. Secluded yet still part of a community with easy access to amenities on foot. Fantastic pool and wonderful, uninterrupted views. The house was very well equipped and Virginie could not have been more helpful and welcoming. We hope to return.

About the host

Hosted by Virginie

Host profile image
We are a Franco-britannique family and we live in Newmarket near Cambridge. We have family friends who live in L’Houmeau and we have visited them every summer for the past 25 years.
The children have great memories of their holidays there and still enjoy coming to stay in the house with their friends

Why they chose this property

It is in a great location and easily accessible, all the benefits of La Rochelle and l’île de Ré without the inconvenience of the bridge toll charges and terrible traffic on the island during the height of the season
Having stayed ourselves in the house these past two summer seasons, we have enjoyed the tranquillity of the location.

What makes this property unique

Unrivalled view of the sea and across to l’île de Ré
Very quiet location
Ideal for relaxing, sitting by the pool and enjoy the sunshine
