Contact with the owners was excellent, making our travel to the property less stressful. The pool area was very private and relaxing.

Vous arrivez dans un environnement verdoyant calme et paisible! Non loin de la forêt de Rennes qui est propice à la balade pédestre ou cycliste! La maison est décorée avec goût et soignée la piscine est de grande taille idéale pour réaliser quelques longueurs ou de magnifique plongeons!

Eine sehr schöne und sehr geschmackvolle Unterkunft in einer sehr ruhigen Lage. Sehr schön eingerichtet, schöne Bäder ein schönes Wohnzimmer und ein sehr schöner Pool. Selten haben wir ein Haus, dass so geschmackvoll und mit Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet war, gesehen. Gute Kücheneinrichtung, sehr gute Betten, was bei nun wirklich nicht in jedem Ferienhaus der Fall ist. Ein Haus, das man auf jeden Fall mieten kann. In der Umgebung kann die Küste im Norden in 1 Stunde erreicht werden, Rennes kann mit dem Fahrrad erreicht werden und auch weitere Ausflüge sind in der Umgebung zu schönen Zielen möglich. Der Pool ist mit 13 m sehr schön zum Schwimmen geeignet und stellt insbesondere in den heißen Sommer an eine willkommene Erfrischung da. Insgesamt fünf Sterne plus!!!!
Nebenbei sehr nette Vermieter mit einer unkomplizierten Übergabe!

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour la maison est très spacieuse et très bien équipée. L’extérieur est tout aussi agréable avec une grande piscine et une belle terrasse. Le tout à la campagne au calme bref le top pour des vacances reposantes.
Nos hôtes ont été très discrets tout en restant très joignables et réactifs en cas de sollicitations.

Nous avons trouvé l annonce très fidèle au lieu. Très belle maison joliment décorée avec de belles prestations. Une pièce de vie ouverte sur la cuisine et donnant sur la piscine qui s’est avérée vraiment agréable au quotidien. La literie est excellente, les douches spacieuses. Nous avons juste manqué de place pour ranger nos vêtements. Les propriétaires sont charmants et joignables facilement. Nous reviendrons avec joie.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Les Escures. The owners were very helpful and available if needed, but otherwise kept their distance.
The house has been beautifully restored and had everything we needed, including a pool.
The location is superb for visiting all the towns and sites on the north coast (eg Mont St Michel and St Malo) and lesser known places in land. We had a busy few days.
Would highly recommend.

très calme, décoré avec goût, et très fonctionnel, nous avons passé une excellente semaine aux Escures ! A la fois à la campagne et permettant de rayonner en Bretagne (Rennes, Mont Saint-Michel, Saint-Malo, etc.), un bon moment de déconnexion, de détente et de visites. Merci aux propriétaires pour leur accueil, à la fois très sympathiques et discrets. Nous reviendrons sans doute !

Wir haben das Ferienhaus wie in der Anzeige beschrieben vorgefunden, ein Traum. Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wir haben uns von Tag 1 sehr Wohl gefühlt und kommen gern wieder.

We really enjoyed our vacation in this beautiful house. The rooms were very clean, the host and hostess were really nice and explained everything really well.

Our two week stay at Les Escures was an awesome experience. As hosts, the Primes were welcoming, informative and gracious. We enjoyed our animal companions as well—-canine, bovine and aquatic. We found something new and exciting in every nearby village and experienced all types of dining pleasures, from traditional to gourmet. The whole experienced was enhanced by the knowledge that we returned each evening to a property which has been in the Prime family since the Revolution.

Wir hatten insgesamt einen schönen Aufenthalt. Das Haus ist traumhaft und die Lage sehr ruhig. Bei den Bildern des großen Anwesens dachten wir, dass wir auch einmal dort spazieren gehen und auch den See besuchen könnten. Leider war dies untersagt, da dies zu dem anderen vermieteten Haus gehört. Zu unserem Haus gehörten ausschließlich der abgegrenzte Garten mit Pool. Zum Glück gab es neben an noch eine Wiese auf der die Kinder toben konnten. Zu beachten ist zudem, dass zu der Miete noch eine Reinigungsgebühr hinzu kommt. Darin ist die Küche leider nicht inbegriffen, was wir erst vor Ort erfahren haben. Diese mussten wir selbst putzen. Auch das wir jeden zweiten Tag den Poolroboter bedienen mussten, war uns nicht klar. Da wir diese Punkte nicht der Beschreibung entnommen haben, waren wir doch sehr irritiert.

Myself and family stayed in Les Escures for two weeks in July 2019. We chose it based on the photos on the Home and Away web site. We arrived and met Mr Prime who greeted us and showed us how everything worked. First impressions were that the photos did not do the property justice. The renovated house was amazing and spacious. The pool was immuclate and warm. The grounds were large with a couple of forest walks which were very enjoyable. All in all the property was excellent and the location was perfect. We are already planning to return. Thank you Mr and Mrs Prime for a wonderful time which exceeded all expecations.

Das Haus ist wirklich toll, sehr geräumig und hell! Es ist wunderbar ruhig und man kann super am großen Pool entspannen. Die Vermieter sind stets erreichbar und sehr hilfsbereit. Als Verbesserungsvorschläge hätten wir nur, vielleicht die Anzahl der (Saft-/Wasser-)Gläser aufzustocken und Deckel zu den Töpfen und Pfannen würden das kochen / braten erleichtern. Auch wäre es schön, wenn es die bequemen Stühle am Esstisch (drinnen wie draußen) statt nur für 4 für 6 Personen gäbe. Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit in Acigné!

Das Haus ist sehr stilvoll eingerichtet! Es ist ruhig gelegen, etwas ausserhalb. Der Pool ist perfekt. Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und haben uns auch Tips für Ausflüge gegeben. Wir haben wunderschöne Ferien im „les escures“ verbracht.
