“Home away from home”
We're a family of 5, with children between the ages of 7 and 18. We've visited the Old shades several times, also when our children we're a lot younger, and each time it's been lovely. Richard & Nicky always made us feel more then welcome. The swimming pool has been a joy, especially for our children. The hanger is a bonus. It is full of entertainment like a football table, bicycles, skates and more. It's handy on a rainy day, but also really nice on a hot day, because it offers you a bit of shade. The gîtes are nicely decorated with lots of personal touches, which makes you feel your in a home and not a holidayhouse. This summer our children tried the scuba-diving course they offer. It was a great experience. The Charente-Maritime also offers lots of nice cities to visit like Angoulème, la Rochelle and Saintes and the 14 juilliet festivities are always lots of fun in Bagnizeau. We do really recommend this holiday adress to anyone who wants a nice and relaxing holiday away from the larger tourists area and parcs.
