“Our 2nd visit, Blissful peace and quiet, great place forkids to play safely” We stayed at Mark and Anita's place last year and enjoyed it so much that we came back this year with another family. Weather was great. The pool and massive garden/grounds keep the kids busy. The house is well equipped with all the usual plus satellite and wifi. Our hosts are very nice, helpful and discreet. We hardly noticed they were there. We went away to get away from it all and succeeded.

“A perfect getaway.” This farmhouse is in the middle of nowhere and perfect if you are looking for a quiet and relaxing week. Parthenay is a 10 minute drive and has all you would expect from a market town. Mark and... more

“Relaxing and fun holiday with great owners” We really enjoyed our holiday at La Metairie. It was very secure for our children who had a fabulous time and loved the ducks, chicks, cats and the very friendly dog. The pool as well as the table tennis and badminton facilities were great to keep everybody entertained. Mark and Anita couldn't have been more helpful and gave us plenty of advice on where to go and what to do. The gite was great and contained everything we needed. Shopping in Parthenay was also convenient. A great family holiday!
