Cottage Mais

We had an amazing week in the beautiful French sunshine. The pool was wonderful for the children and everything was clean and tidy. To be able to walk to the lakes and swim, with no other soul in sight was something I didn’t expect. Eric and his wife were very friendly. The accommodation had everything and the nearby town of Montpon had a good supermarket that sold everything we needed. Was a lovely location and lovely holiday, thank you Eric and Laetitia, we will hopefully see you again soon .

Our stay at another Gite fell through, leaving us to find alternative accomodation at the very last minute. With few other options open to us, we booked Cottage Mais. It was therefore wonderful to find that we had fallen on our feet. The Gite is one of two in the centre of a maize farm. It is clean, well maintained, and nicely furnished and decorated. Eric's earlier career as an interior designer shows. There is a large heated pool (which the pictures do not do justice) and a small lake, which makes a change from the pool. Eric and Laetitia are great hosts and made us most welcome. Eric's guided tour of the farm was an unexpected highlight while Laetitia brought us fresh fruit from their trees. It is apparent that they have spent a lot of time, money, and effort establishing the Gites. The result is possibly the best of the many Gites we have stayed in over the years.
