10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
Beautiful house with everything that you could possibly need. Appliances, kitchen, room options and facilities really flexible in accommodating a family of 8, from age 5 to 81, singles and couples. Accessible facilities on the ground floor were thoughtfully designed and the decor throughout is light, airy and in sympathy with the style of the house. Lovely cool bedding and fans in each room were much appreciated. A lovely peaceful location with relaxing garden, plenty of comfortable seating both inside and out and with a stunning pool, yet in easy reach of the coast, markets, activities and walks. Alison and Roland provide the warmest of welcomes, and this has definitely been the most beautiful place that we have stayed in 20 years of visiting France. We were sorry to leave but highly recommend this house, you could not fail to be impressed, relaxing in this amazing place.

We have just returned from a 2 week stay at Tres Jolie. A family group of 11, 3 generations.What an absolutely wonderful time we had. The house was beautiful, equipped for everything and very clean. The rural setting is idyllic, great for evening strolls.The pool is amazing and we all had so much fun. The house and grounds are spacious and even with 11 people you could always find a quiet spot to read and relax.We have stayed in quite a few french holiday lets over the years but this is by far our favourite.
