Naturel et authenticité

Accueil très chaleureux par nos hôtes qui ont été de bon conseil pour les visites. Cadre rustique agréable et convivial. Excellents petits déjeuners. Seul petit bémol : mauvaise insonorisation de la chambre.

Oase in der Charente Maritime

Ein paar Worte reichen kaum aus. Wir wurden äußerst freundlich und herzlich empfangen, obwohl wir weit vor 17:00 am Haus ankamen. Die Zimmer sind wunderschön und mit viel Liebe eingerichtet, alles super sauber! Der Garten und der tolle Pool laden zum relaxen ein. Das Frühstück ist außerordentlich üppig, verglichen mit einem französischen Frühstück. Sabine backt jeden Tag einen anderen Kuchen, und hat gefühlt 20 verschiedene und sehr köstliche Marmeladensorten selbst kreiert und gekocht. Sie erfüllt jeden Wunsch und ist auch noch eine perfekte Ausflugsberaterin. Wir haben unseren Urlaub bei Sabine und ihrem Mann sehr genossen. Wir wissen nicht, was uns unseren Aufenthalt hätte noch schöner machen können, wir können diese Unterkunft einfach nur wärmstens weiter empfehlen. Vielen lieben Dank für einen unvergesslichen Urlaub in der Charente Maritime!

Eine ganz besondere Woche!

Wir hatten gedacht, wir hätten eine Ferienwohnung gebucht. Aber was es dort in Andilly gab, war soviel mehr! Wir bekamen einen ganz großzügigen Schlafraum, einen Kochplatz, einen ganzen Garten mit Swimmingpool und ein traumhaftes Frühstück. Und dazu noch die Präsenz unserer Gastgeber, die uns ihre Zeit schenkten für Tourenvorschläge, Austausch und Gespräche über Gott und die Welt. Unbezahlbar!

Wonderful House

we had wonderful two days in the house from Sabine Camarzana. Her big Garden is lovely and the kinds had a lot of fun in the pool. The photos from the apartment are true to reality, details told about a warmhearted owner with a good sense for decoration. Her Apartment is located in quiet neighborhood and the charming village from Andilly is very close. We had a very nice Breakfast with delicious selfmade Confiture and Sabine and his husband gave us very nice tips for places to visit in France. We really felt ourself home, had access to everything we needed. We will sure recommend it to friends. Thanks Sabine!

Un très bon séjour au calme dans la nature

Belle propriété à proximité de divers sites (La Rochelle, Marans, l'anse de l'aiguillon, l'île de Ré...), au calme, une belle piscine, une belle grande chambre très confortable (bonne literie - grande salle de bain avec douche à l'italienne), un petit déjeuner copieux (bons gâteaux et confitures faits par la maison), accueil chaleureux de nos hôtes, de bons conseils touristiques et gastronomiques, nous reviendrons avec plaisir !

Excellente adresse!

La Charmentaise est un nom qui resurme à lui seul toute la quintessence de cette belle surprise. Les hôtes sont des personnes attentives à la qualité de leurs services et grâce à leur culture personnelle toujours en mesure de satisfaire les besoins de découverte du voyageur. Leur convivialité toute naturelle complète leur sens du bien recevoir. À recommander sans réserve.

Excellent !

Propriétaires très sympathiques et très accueillants ! On a passé un petit week end calme et reposant. Les chambres sont très propres et bien entretenues, les lieux sont comme dans la description, piscine sans vis à vis, parfait pour rester en toute intimité. Petit dejeuner parfait et copieux. J'y retournerai sans hésiter.
