The overall impression was good although in a built-up area further from La Rochelle than expected
We realized when reserving the apartment that it was on 2 levels. Although my wife has some mobility problems she manages the stairs at home very well but we did not realize that the bathroom was on the ground floor. This became a problem during the night coming down the stairs which had open treads. Another problem we had was that in the bedroom there was a large part-folded bed which gave us very little space. In the kitchen/living area there was a small bed settee was very low and uncomfortable. The apartment was stated to be for 4 people but we felt that it was more suitable for 2 people or a family with small children.
In spite of these problems we had a good holiday but unfortunately the property was not what we expected and we will not be returning.
We stayed in the two storey apartment with an ample sized bedroom upstairs, downstairs provided excellent cooking and resting facilities. The whole area was a credit to the owners, clean and litter free. At no point did we feel anything but completely relaxed. There are 3 supermarkets within easy walking distance and La Rochelle centre was a pleasant 20 minute walk. If you have a vehicle there are some lovely local areas to visit with easy access to the main route. I wholeheartedly recommend a break here even if you just like to lie on a sunbed all day as the sun is on the property almost from sunrise.

We are an Anglo-Irish family who have been living in La Rochelle since 2003 and now split our time between La Rochelle and London. We run holiday accommodation here, in a super town for tourists and those seeking to get away from it all alike. In addition, we are musicians and sing, write and play together in a band called The Portraits. This pic was taken during a recent trip of a lifetime to India, and really got into the spirit, clothes and all!
Our little residence with pool was built in 2006 next to our own home in La Rochelle. It provides a well-equipped, cosy and welcoming environment from which to make the best of all that La Rochelle has to offer.
We are only 20 minutes walk from the centre of La Rochelle - a beautiful walk most of which is through La Rochelle's glorious central park.
Linen and towels provided.
We are happy to arrange to do washing for our guests when we are around. We'll happily do one full wash for free during your stay, and may ask for a donation for subsequent washes - get in touch if interested.
