Superb Family Holiday Gite Judith Burgess Surrey, England Date of Stay: August 2007 Terry and Catherine have thought of everything. The gite is beautifully renovated and furnished with everything you need for a family holiday from a well equipped kitchen to toys and videos for the children. This will be our third holiday with them this year (2008) and we can't wait for our 2 weeks enjoying the gite, pool and surrounding countryside.
Lovely holiday Date of Stay: July 2010 I would definitely recommend this gite. The property was clean and the description was accurate. Everything that you needed had been thought of and we especially appreciated the attention to detail like the videos for the children (they loved the Carry On films- thanks Terry!) and the welcome pack of food.
Eki Hämeenkuja 2 b 30 13200 Hämeenlinna,Finland Date of Stay: June 2010 L´Olivier was a perfect choice for our family, right in the heart of rural France. The
Fantastic holiday Richali United Kingdom Date of Stay: June 2010 A well presented and equipped property, in a secluded location with excellent facilities and a good size lovely pool across the lawn. Great place to relax with good access to great days out. Very friendly owners who were happy to give advice and recommendations on the local area.
L'Olivier Helen Northumberland Date of Stay: June 2010 We had a great fortnight in this brilliantly child friendly gite. We have 2 children age 2 and 4 who loved the pool, swings, garden, sandpit and playhouse. We didn't have the best weather for our holiday but were within "daytrip" distance of La Rochelle, Ile de Re, the fantastic Zoo at La Palmyre and beaches of the Atlantic Coast and La Gironde. Had the weather been great, we probably would have seen none of these and spent 2 weeks lounging around L'Olivier. The gite was very well equipped, comfortable and tasteful. Catherine and Terry made us very welcome and were accessible without being intrusive. Nothing was too much trouble. I came home fully recharged, Thank you!
La Bergerie Katrina&Dave Rotherham S Yorks Date of Stay: June 2009 A lovely stay. The house was clean and well equipped with very high standard fittings and fixtures. Full English TV and internet .
A lovely holiday! Sara, Guy, Lucy and Rosie Chichester, West Sussex, UK Date of Stay: August 2009 L'Olivier is a beautifully furbished Gite, done with attention to detail, great taste and quality equipment. There was everything needed to ensure a relaxing and comfortable holiday. With plenty of garden area and super pool, all well maintained, we all had a great time. Our 2 girls were quite happy to spend the whole day just jumping in and out of the pool and playing in the garden with Catherine and Terry's 2 lovely children.
A perfect family holiday The Thatchers Maidstone Kent Date of Stay: July 2009 We had a wonderful 2 weeks. The gite, garden and pool were perfect. The gite is beautifully renovated, with all our needs catered for. The children's toys and outside play equipment were a big hit with our children as was all the baby equipment Catherine provided. The gardens are beautiful (great place for hide and seek). The children loved the pool and their swimming and confidence in the water has improved no end. We had lovely weather and spent time on the local beaches. There is plenty to do in this area for families with young children. Thank you Catherine and Terry for a wonderful holiday and are looking forward to our return to you next year.
Outstanding gite and service Liza, Patrick, Alcina and Colette Horsham, Wests Sussex Date of Stay: April 2009 My family enjoyed a perfect holiday in mid France, well worth the travel. The garden was fantastic fun for the children along with the sandpit, swings, playhouse and garden snails. Service is above and beyond the standard provided in France with superb attention to detail, a wonderful personal touch from Terry and Catherine. Very clean and well organized, beautifully presented bedrooms
Highly Recommeded Gite Ian, Kim and Alex Henlow, Bedfordshire Date of Stay: October 2008 We had an excellent short stay out of season (October), not only were we blessed by the weather, which was excellent, but the gite was exceptional and ideal for us with our 4 year old, who enjoyed the huge range of videos and the swings in the garden!
Stunning! Alison&Angus Bognor Regis, Sussex Date of Stay: August 2007 We visited for a week summer 2007 and it would be hard to improve on the experience.
Fabulous relaxing family holiday KarenB Newcastle upon Tyne, England Date of Stay: July 2007 Karen B and family, Newcastle upon Tyne
Well worth a visit !! silver fox Andover, Hampshire Date of Stay: August 2007 We have now visited 3 times staying in both gites and are going back for our fourth visit (summer 2008) I cannot recommend a visit highly enough, your hosts from arrival to departure cannot be helpful enough without ever getting in the way. Both Gites have been refurbished to a very, very high standard, exceptionally clean & tidy offering everything you could wish for from a self catering holiday. Externally the gardens offer a safe playground while the pool is securely fenced, wonderfully located & maintained. Whilst rural in its location, within easy reach are lovely beaches, quaint villages & of course plenty of good value restaurants. Every time we have visited we have always found something different, this along with the relaxed attitude of the hosts will always make this destination a favourite of ours. As the title suggests "well worth a visit"
Fantastic week in Crazannes Ian & Mary Staffordshire Date of Stay: July 2010 My wife and I plus or daughter, son in law and 6 week old baby Lucy have just returned from a fantastic week at La Petite Bergerie. We have over the years visited most regions of France and had some mixed accommodation however this Gite is exceptional in it's level of comfort and cleanliness. It is modern very well equipped and a real home from home. As the weather was very hot during our week the pool proved to be a big hit allowing some respite from the afternoon heat. The garden and barbecue were also well used during our visit.
Fabulous week Trevor & Hilary Kent/uk Date of Stay: September 2009 Such a relief after a long drive from Calais to find we had booked such a
Absolutely outstanding holiday Adrian Bell Shafton, Barnsley Date of Stay: August 2009 Just returned from holiday and here are our remarks regarding the accommodation:-
La Petite Bergerie Barbie and Fran Chester UK Date of Stay: August 2009 The conversion of this barn is second to non. Tastefully done, clean bright and airy (not typically French!), it has everything you need for a relaxing comfortable holiday. Great clean safe swimming pool and play area for children within the grounds. The area is great too with lots to do locally; safe swimming in the river in the next village, even water-skiing at Taillebourg which is also very close and a pretty village. The coast and La Rochelle are within easy reach for fantastic beaches and sea food. We were looking for a place to buy in the area, but with somewhere as good as this to stay we are having second thoughts. Lastly Terry and Catherine were very helpful when needed but were conscious of our privacy. Each Gite has it's own private garden and eating area, but the pool area is great to socialise and meet the other guests. Book early to avoid disappointment!!
Excellent location for a relaxing break. TAPTDJ Bristol Date of Stay: July 2009 Thanks Catherine and Terry for our stay in La Petit Bergerie. The Gite was very comfortable and very well appointed, did not miss anything. The pool area is excellent and kept two teenage boys amused. The wi-fi internet access was a bit on and off but not really missed by the adults, more by the boys. The weather for our stay was excellent only one day with drizzle in 2 weeks. Local restaurants in Port d'Envaux and St Savinien were ok but not outstanding. Golf course at Saintes was not very good but Cognac and Royan both good courses and worth playing. Good cycling in the area on lanes with very little traffic. All in all a very peaceful break.
Our holiday in La Petite Bergerie mummyofwillandjess Fairburn North Yorkshire Date of Stay: June 2009 It was our first visit to this part of France and to this property and we weren't disappointed with either one. We had the most perfect, relaxing week, probably the most enjoyable, chilled out holiday we've ever had. The gite itself was beyond our wildest expectations. Beautifully decorated throughout and our every need was catered for - even serviettes and food ties to keep food fresh were available!!! Catherine and Terry had thought of everything. Also very much appreciated were the jigsaws and toys for our children although we spent most of our time at the gite either in the gorgeous gardens, at the bbq or in the fab, child safe pool. We only wish we'd known about Catherine's home cooking service being available and we would have loved to have got to grips with oysters while we were there too - we read in the guest book that Terry is an expert at shucking!!! Maybe next time!! We loved the area so much, we've started looking for a renovation project. One word to sum up our time in Crazannes - PERFECT!! Thanks for letting us stay at your lovely gite.
La Petite Bergerie Gite-seeker South West, UK Date of Stay: July 2008 Catherine and Terry have created a wonderful place to stay. Very well equipped with everything necessary to make staying as easy and straightforward as possible. Top quality fittings and very comfortable. There's even wi-fi for those who find getting away from it all just that little bit too much of a challenge. This is a tastefully and thoughtfully furnished place and cannot be faulted.
