Cottage with Private Heated Pool, 15 Mins to Nearest Beach

Detached cottage, in the peaceful village of Mortagne Sur Gironde with private heated pool including approved security pool alarm. Large fully enclosed garden with a superb built-in barbecue and terrace perfect for dining alfresco overlooking the fields and vineyards. In Mortagne there is a supermarket, bakers, butchers, pharmacy, bank, bar/tabac and tourist information. The port is a 10-15 min walk and has a number of restaurants which overlook the marina. The beaches of Meschers are only 15 mins away. Europe's largest zoo in La Palmyre, Aquarium in La Rochelle and an indoor pool complex in Jonzac and popular golf course further along the coast as well as other beaches with watersports. Superb area for walking and cycling with routes mapped out and the majority off road through the fields and vineyards.

Great 2 weeks

From the minute we arrived with the lovely welcome pack, we had a great 2 weeks holiday. The house was perfect in terms of size, location and equipped with everything you could possibly need for a great stay. We got great tips from Sue on events and music in the area. We ate out in the local pizza restaurant and in the restaurants in the port. We loved the huge garden and the pool. We'd love to come back again!

Relaxing

A beautiful house maintained to a high standard and equipped with all that you need for your holiday any time of the year. Situated on the edge of the village its very tranquil with a large garden with mature shrubs to ensure you privacy around the pool and patio (a little breezy at times). The village of Mortgane is very unassuming with shops, bakeries, butcher etc and a selection of welcoming restaurants and bars to eat and drink looking over the small harbour. A good base to tour the area or excellent relaxing holiday with every you need on your doorstop.

Very Relaxing Holiday

The property is set in an unspoilt village and is within walking distance of a few small shops. The house overlooks vineyard and countryside and has a pleasant swimming pool in the garden. The layout of the house makes it ideal for a couple or family. It is very clean and everything exceeded our expectations. We were sorry to have only booked one week as we would have enjoyed a longer stay. There are several small towns and good beaches within a short drive and we had no difficulty in finding restaurants locally. Overall, thank you to the owners for keeping good standards throughout. No problem in recommending this to anyone wanting a peaceful, relaxing French holiday.

lovely well equipped property in good location

We enjoyed our September stay in this lovely spacious property. The whole property was large and stylish with attention to detail which is lovely for a rental property. It was great having such reliable wifi and British TV for the darker evenings. We would recommend it to anyone looking for peace and quiet but still have access to amenities. Great to be able to wander into the village for a baguette or bottle of wine!! The pool was lovely and given the time of year was heated to a nice temperature! The area is beautiful for walking or cycling with Mescheurs a particular favourite. Local restaurants served good food at reasonable prices with loads of fish on the menu which was a delight!! Would highly recommend.

Fantastic Holiday

We had a fabulous week at the property. 6 of us there, plenty of room in the house and a superb garden. Pool was perfect for the weather, with a large garden overlooking vineyards. Plenty of outside space for sitting and dining. The house was immaculate, everything provided that we needed for the week. All communication with the owner was great. The house is on the outskirts of a lovely village, we walked into the village every morning to get pastries for breakfast from the bakery. There’s also a small co-op for other essentials. We had a great meal at the port that we could also walk to. It’s in a lovely area with lots to do. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone wanting to holiday in the area.

Superb house, well equipped, tranquil setting, convenient for village shops, great value

This was my partner's and my second visit to this house with private heated pool and large garden, set on the eastern edge of the village, backing onto vineyards. The garden is screened from the property to the right of the house by large hedges, so is quite private. To the left is a field about 150 feet wide before the next house, which is also well hedged. We love the tranquillity and the convenience - the village bakers, butchers, pizzeria and supermarket are all about 10 minutes walk away and the restaurants in the pretty little port/marina are about 20 minutes walk away (beware, there is a steep hill to climb back up from the port, which can be hard work after a meal!). The views over the port and Gironde estuary from the top of the village are beautiful. The house is well equipped and comfortable with good WiFi and UK TV via FreeSat (and French TV too). There is a covered area behind the house with a table and chairs under it, which is great for taking refuge from the sun (it was 30 degrees C some days during our stay). The built-in garden BBQ was a good way to end the day with the sun setting and the large variety of birds flitting over the garden. We think that this house represents great value for money. As per our previous visit, the owner, Vikki is very friendly and responsive to messages. I'm sure we will return again.

Comfortable, peaceful house on edge of village

Our third visit in 10 years :-) The house is in a peaceful lane, backing onto grape vines, on the edge of the pretty little Gironde estuary village of Mortagne sur Gironde. Huge garden, not overlooked. Great pool, Fantastic (new) big charcoal bbq, outdoor seating. UK FreeSat TV. WiFi is quite weak as it’s a very rural area, so wouldn’t recommend if you want to do any work on a PC during your visit. Bakery, butchers, great little supermarket and several restaurants in village, all within walking distance (or a short drive) from the house. The owner, Vikki is fantastic; always very prompt communication and so friendly and helpful. It adds to the positive experience of the stay.

Beautiful location

Great location and lovely property. Very spacious inside and very large garden-kids loved playing ball games and the little tea set went down a treat with our little boy. Seating area was a bit warm as no shade and sometimes too windy for the parasol- would benefit from an awning. Fantastic facilities including good range of cooking equipment. The bakery down the road was a must visit for fresh bread and treats. Villa only 20 mins from the beach and 40 mins to Royan. Victoria was amazing at answering any questions as and when needed.

Fantastic relaxing holiday

From booking this villa - to arriving - to leaving, everything was really easy. Vikki was great always ready to answer any questions straight away. The property manager Kim and her husband Phil are brilliant, very informative about place’s to eat and where to visit. Anything you needed they sorted it out. The villa, garden and pool are beautiful. The Most relaxing, tranquil place we have ever been to. The only noise was bird songs which is lovely. We would highly recommend this villa

Belle découverte

Très beau séjour passé au sein de cette location. Nous avons apprécié notamment l'espace et le calme de la propriété qui est aussi bien située pour réaliser diverses visites. La maison est bien équipée et agréable à vivre. Bien que le site indique clairement que la propriétaire parle anglais, nous aurions espéré que les documents sur place soient traduits en français. Sur le plan matériel, le lit à deux places est confortable, les dimensions reprises sur l'annonce sont correctes mais il n'est pas adapté à des personnes de plus d'1,80 m. Au-delà de cet aspect pratique, nous avons passé une excellent séjour là-bas et nous espérons pouvoir y revenir un jour! Merci à la propriétaire pour sa réactivité dans ses réponses et son souci continu du bien-être des locataires !

The property is spacious, well appointed with a large garden overlooking a vineyard. There is a good pool which is well maintained. There are plenty of interesting places to visit and Mortagne itself is unspoilt with a good Bakery within walking distance. Well worth visiting the restaurants in the Port.

Cherry time in Mortagne

A lovely, well cared for and comfortable Gite in a quiet location, just right for ‘getting away from it all.’ We enjoy being in France and the location offered all we were looking for, the chance to cater for ourselves using the local shops but also some good places nearby to enjoy the local seafood; not to mention the succulent cherries, courtesy of the neighbours cheery tree. Not to mention the local wines! A lovely gite in a lovely setting.
