La Maison Rose – Your Dream French Countryside Escape

This is a wonderful large property with lots of facilities, including activities to do in the large garden. The pool is good size and has a generous patio area around it. Marion the owner and James who lives locally will try and sort out any issues you have, plus give you lots of information about the locality.We enjoyed exploring an area that was new to us.

A big house with big rooms, we were 4 generations and there was plenty of space for us all, pool is a must and this is great a good size, kitchen is small but has everything you need. Indoor table tennis made for great tournaments, huge garden but as with all french grass shoes are needed

Large spacious property can easily accommodate a large family or families sharing. Lots of space inside and out to relax on your own. Pool area is clean and inviting with plenty of sun loungers, parasols and outdoor furniture Great location for visiting nearby attractions. If I’m being picky the property is let down a little by the relatively small kitchen. Although well equipped it’s a bit tight on space when cooking. However this should not dissuade anyone from renting what is otherwise an excellent house. The caretaker James was responsive and always on hand when we had any issues and offers great with advise on local attractions. House is in a calm commune with lots of quiet country lanes nearby for relaxing cycle rides, yet it’s only about 7 minutes by car to the nearest town. Would definitely recommend and would love to return again next year.

We had an excellent holiday staying at "The pink house" as we called it in Villenave-pres-Marsac. With 5 bedrooms and plenty of living room areas there was lots of space for our family party of 7. The pool was large and we loved eating out in the garden, just a few steps from the kitchen. The village is lovely and quiet, and yet you can drive to a small supermarket in 5 minutes, and a massive one in 15. The mountains are about 45-60 minutes drive away. The bedrooms and all the linen were lovely and clean, although the kitchen wasn't quite so spotless. We had a couple of very small issues while we were there but they were dealt with very quickly and efficiently by the English speaking contact for the property, who couldn't have been more helpful. All in all we enjoyed our stay very much. Only one point: although the pool was lovely, I wouldn't recommend it to families with very small children as there were quite a few uneven surfaces and the path leading to it had lots of trip hazards. There is, however, a huge garden and lots of games equipment which was perfect for the teenagers in our group.

We had a lovely two week holiday here. The house is very spacious, and the gardens are lovely. The pool area is perfect, and the pool itself a good size. We enjoyed trips out and lazy days at the property, and cycling to the bakery in Andrest each morning to get our breakfast croissants. It is calm, peaceful and easy to find - exactly what we were looking for. Thank you.

Our group of 8 included 4 teenagers looking for post exam relaxation and they certainly found it here. They enjoyed swimming, table tennis, badminton, football etc and hooking up their games consul in the evening to unwind. The booking process was simple and Marion the owner was excellent answering any queries we had prior to going and incredibly helpful and generous during our stay. The property is a short, easy drive from the airport. If you have not driven abroad before (like us) the airport is quiet and the drive relatively stress free. The location of the property is very quiet and so having transport is the best option. The locals are very friendly and were incredibly helpful when we needed medical assistance. We found the local town of Vic-en Bigorre perfect for essentials. If I had one slight moan it would be that the property is still being advertised as having WiFi but it doesn't. Our original HomeAway property search included WiFi as this was felt important, for our particular group circumstances, so we were disappointed to find out it wasn't available. So make sure you have 4G data if you feel you will need access to the internet when there. In all a great stay and would thoroughly recommend this property.

We had a great holiday in this lovely property. There were 6 of us, two families and it was more than big enough with 5 bedrooms and lots of living space. The house had lots of character and rustic charm and the pool was heavenly. The whole property was completely enclosed which was great for the children and dog. The garden was huge and the surrounding countryside was beautiful. The village is very quiet and the nearest shop is about a 10 minute drive away but this means that it it is very peaceful and the only sounds to be heard at night are from nature! Perfect holiday had by all. Highly recommend.

Property was larger than expected and has everything imaginable to make a family holiday memorable. We will be coming back! Great, large pool area and big garden; comfortable and very spacious bedrooms and living areas. In a small village that is quiet (apart from an occasional dog bark and cockerels from the farms nearby but that only added to the charm). Local shops are walking/cycling distance and there are good restaurants and towns nearby. We all missed this property when we left!
