Hasell family review of Les Vallaies, Cygne pool side cottage, children aged 5 and 3 yrs
We had a lovely 2 wks in our rustic French gite. The kids really loved going in the pool every day and making friends. It was very relaxing and unpretentious. The kids could run around and play whilst we drank wine and shared a bbq with the other families. We had a mix of chilled pool days and day trips out. We particularly enjoyed visits to the zoo, Paleosite, the beach at La Palmyre and the boating lake at St Savinien where we had an amazing meal. Relaxed and Friendly.
Cygne family holiday cottage sleeps 6 in 3 bedrooms. On the ground floor there is an open plan living dining area and
a medium sized raised kitchen. The kitchen is equipped with dishwasher, washing machine, 4 ring gas hob, work top electric oven/grill, microwave, fridge freezer, electric kettle and all basic crockery and cutlery for a comfortable child friendly self catering holiday. An open tread, steep, wooden staircase takes you to the first floor with double bedroom (160x200) and two twin bedrooms, all of which have draws and hanging space. there is a modern bathroom with bath, shower facility (over bath), toilet and basin, with loads of hot water and good pressure.
The holiday gite has a small enclosed patio area to the front with outdoor dining table and chairs and charcoal barbecue . It looks out onto the pool area. The terrace has a gate with child safety latch and there is a second gate also with safety latch to enter the pool area. The thick stone walls create a cellar like effect and in the heat of the summer, the cottage is a welcome escape from the midday sun.
Cot, high chair, booster seat, change mat, toys and books, stair barriers, potty and toilet seat , plastic crockery and cutlery, toddler step an hand blender are standard items in all the cottages. To access the garden area, you need to exit the property onto the village lane, pass by the parking area and re enter the property. The poolside gites are therefore suited to families with older children.
