Charming welcome from our hosts Dominique and André. Very cozy and super clean 2-room apartment. We enjoyed the terrace for dining and resting. The place is very quiet and well located in relation to Les Sables d'Olonne and St Gilles. Nice swimming pool too.
On an adventure... but by the sea. This is what dictated our choice of summer vacation spot in 2016, and which tipped the balance towards the Vendée region, more precisely the small village of St-Julien-Des - Landes. Unearthed on the Internet, via a particularly complete and well-developed website (including for English and Dutch speakers of all stripes), the rural gîte Le Contrevent is a small haven of peace ideal for 3/4 people, managed by the master hand of the owners of the places André and Dominique Limbourg. Its location makes it a major asset both for lovers of large maritime spaces (seafront 12 kilometers away) and for those who prefer the rural or rural side of the Vendée bocage. In terms of the services offered in the gîte, it is difficult to be choosy: Le Contrevent is much more like an 'à la carte' hotel service than a simple lodging; and if you miss something, the owners go out of their way (and not four) to provide it to you, within reason! The equipment of the gîte is thus ultra-complete, from household appliances to bedding (2 separate twin beds and 1 'BZ' two-seater fold-out) through the sanitary facilities or even the outdoor terrace. A games room / garage is also available, with a wide choice of educational games and reading books galore... Without redoing the internet description of the gîte, because there would be so much to add to the various equipment. For 'geeks' or hyper-connected people like me (!), WiFi is a significant asset;
Some English tv channels would have been good . Inside entrance door step a wee bit dodgy , as it moved when stepped on . Shower base needs a clean.
