Farmhouse Private “HEATED” FOC Swimming Pool Pizza Oven With Uninterrupted Views

The whole site was beautiful, peaceful and relaxing. The swimming pool was used daily and was a focal point for so much enjoyment. We can't wait to return and thoroughly recommend L'Espoir for a holiday.

Spacious, peaceful and with superb views over the countryside this was the perfect spot for a familiy holiday. Garden spacious enough for a kick about, great climbing frame for the kids and a fantastic pool for all to enjoy. All the facilities you could possibly need and an easy to use charcoal BBQ which was perfect for evening entertainment. Within an hour you can drive to a range of medieval towns, Gallo Roman ruins and neothlic cultural sites which were good mornings out and still be back in time for an afternoon poolside which, with temperatures in the high 30s, was a must. Would certainly be back again.

We loved this house, we were a family group of mixed ages and everyone had a ball. Helen was unbelievably patient with all my queries and questions. We were very lucky and had great weather. The house has everything you need Sky tv, wifi, a brilliantly equipped kitchen and the pool which everyone really enjoyed every minute in. Its exactly 2km to the village which has a lovely bakery. We never managed to get a meal in the restaurant as it was either closed or getting work done when we tried so we just gave up and had lovely barbeques at the house. Bressuire is a very easy 10 minute drive and theres a huge Carrefour there with everything you would need for your stay. I would highly recommend this house if you want to get away from it all.

There was a gang of us stayed in this house. It was very accurate to the photos, Helen was brilliant at giving tips and information before, during and after arrival. The house has everything you need it really is a home from home - with a pool - we all really made good use of the pool and all the pool toys that were at the house and we were very lucky to get great weather when we were there. We made great use of the barbeque and the kitchen has all you need, every utensil as you would have in your own house and a huge amount of glasses, crockery and cutlery. The village is a 2km walk away and has the bakery for fresh bread and croissants, we tried to eat in the restaurant in the village but it was closed on the nights we went or they were getting work done the night it looked open. There is a great Carrefour in Bressuire which is a very easy 10min drive away and we also got a takeaway from Dominos in Bressuire and a nice Lebanese restaurant that is near the bus/train station in Bressuire. The house is in a very rural setting, it is lovely and quiet with lots of birdsong. We did day trips to Puy du Fou which is only about 45 minutes away and really is a brilliant day out, we also went to Futuroscope which is a little over an hour away and is also a good day out. The house, pool and garden were spotless on arrival, it was great to have the TV with Sky - even though we didn't us it much but the kids were glad to have it - beds were very comfortable, I would have no hesitation recommending this house to a family group.
