Great trip and stay
We had a lovely break here, lovely location and great place to stay. The couple who hosted our stay were very inviting as well as leaving us to our own devices to enjoy the place and surrounding land. We would highly recommend this place. Thank you

Wonderful gite
An absolutely beautiful gite with super grounds and swimming pool. The whole place was so relaxing and peaceful, and the courtyard table for meals was gorgeous. Owners were so friendly and we enjoyed meeting them.

A little piece of heaven
Rural rustic country forest bathing kind of place. Fantastic house with lots of room lots of equipment, everything you'd need and more, generous sized rooms. An ideal place to relax and unwind. It felt so safe. The swimming pool was out of this world. There is a beautiful vast walled garden with a swimming pool, ping pong table, bicycles, hammocks, a kids swing set, a sand pit, a dolls House and kids toys. Plenty of outdoor space well off of the road and very safe. The hosts, Brigitte and Lionel are exceptional, calling to us on a number of occasions with home baked goods. So warm, so friendly, so helpful. We still miss the place, we spent a wonderful time there, and we can't wait to go back. 5 minutes away from Super U by car, and local market every Saturday in village. Easy access to the main intercity road which links Niort (30 mins), Parthenay (30 mins), La Rochelle (50 mins) and Nantes (2hr). Lots of interesting medieval sites to visit such as castles, châteaus, bourgs and churches. We would highly recommend this rural oasis to all ages. Thank you very much for the use of your facilities, for your hospitality, and for the wonderful time we spent there which we will not forget

Agréable séjour dans le Gîte de Margot ou tout le nécessaire est a disposition. Propriétaires charmants, discrets et disponibles. Plusieurs activités possibles autour de la belle et grande piscine qui a fait le bonheur des enfants. Le gîte est éloigné (Xaintray n'est qu'un très petit village), mais il garantit ainsi beaucoup de tranquilité. Nous étions 9 et ce n'était pas un problème. Le marais Poitevin se trouve à 1/2 heure du gîte.

Superbe!!
Tout était parfait : l'accueil, la maison Margot avec une mention spéciale pour la très jolie décoration et les beaux tableaux, on se sent tellement bien à l'intérieur. Le jardin est immense et très bien entretenu avec des jeux pour enfants, une table de ping pong mais également des espaces de repos (hamacs et transats), et enfin la piscine au top ! Nous avons séjourné avec 6 enfants âgés de 4 ans à 9 ans et tout le monde gardera de très bons souvenirs! Merci encore à Brigitte et Lionel ! Nous recommandons les yeux fermés. Fantine et Assiatou
