Very nice villa, with a nice pool. Good communication with the owner, clean house, nice location. We were a group of 12 cyclists who had a very nice holiday in a perfect house
Beautiful house full of character with 3 separate outdoor seating areas. Quiet village with lovely surrounding countryside. 10 minutes drive to the Carrefour.
Great base for walking, visiting Annecy and staying in for long lunches.
Loved it.
We had a super holiday at this place. The communication with Jean Louis was really clear, friendly and in English (nice for us non French speaking).
The house was even better than the pictures. A really warm atmosphere with many places to sit down both in the Sun and shade. The pool was big, clean and well maintained. The area around the house is great for hiking, cycling etc.
Overall we had a excellent stay and we hope to come back at this place somewhere in the future! Can realy recommend this place!
Large house with plenty of space for us, a group of 11 in a quiet neighborhood. It has two living rooms a seperate dining room and 5 bedrooms. It could do with an extra bathroom/toilet.
The house remains cool during summer because of it's thick walls and outside hatches on the windows.
The lush garden offers several terraces, a large pool, and beautiful views of the valley and the Dent du Chat, a nearby mountain.
The owners speak English very well which makes it easy to communicate. The local contact/caretaker however doesn't speak any English making it difficult to communicate in detail.
There are plenty of walks in the mountains nearby as is Lac du Bourget.
The village itself doesn't have any shops/boulangerie so you need a car to do your (grocery) shopping.
Pool room and outside Pingpong table were frequently used, as was the pool.
Let the caretaker open and close the pool cover for you as it appeared to be fragile.
I am a little hesitant to write this review as I don't want so many people knowing about such a great place. Approximately 10 of my friends and myself spent a week at this immaculately maintained farmhouse in Massignieu De Rives. It is easy to find using GPS and the surrounding area is incredibly scenic with lots of different things to do, such as hiking, biking, swimming, etc. The only drawback was that the house was so comfortable that it was hard to leave! The very gracious owners greeted us upon arrival and took us on a personal tour of the house and it's surroundings. You could tell that they take a great deal of pride in the property. The pictures do not do this place justice. The house is quite big and can easily accommodate a large group of people without feeling like you are tripping over each other. We spent most of our time out on the terrace, which offers amazing views, and by the pool. The house is a 10 minute drive from both a large supermarket and a train station which has direct connections to Lyon and Geneva. The bedrooms are all very comfortable and spacious. The kitchen was well equipped to handle the cooking required for a party of 10-12. In summary, this house and it's relaxing surroundings offer a great getaway for a group of friends or family and I wouldn't hesitate to stay again in the future.
Wir haben die Zeit in diesem charmanten Landhaus mit sehr schönem Garten im Kreise unserer Freunde und Familie sehr genossen.
Unsere SauberkeitsansprĂŒche wurden jedoch nicht erfĂŒllt. Vor allem die KĂŒche war nicht sauber (Sieb GeschirrspĂŒler,Schubladen und Geschirr). In Bad und Dusche sollten die AblĂ€ufe und Hahnen einmal grĂŒndlich gereinigt werden. Staubsauger waren voll - mussten zuerst gereinigt werden.
FĂŒr 8 Personen waren nicht genĂŒgend GlĂ€ser vorhanden und eine grosse Bratpfanne hat gefehlt.
Sehr vieles ist vorhanden - super - leider lĂ€sst Zustand oft zu wĂŒnschen ĂŒbrig (FahrrĂ€der).
Massignieu-de-Rives und Umgebung ist eine Reise wert!
Wir haben die Woche Urlaub im tollen Haus umgeben vom tollen Garten sehr genossen. Die Gegend ist ruhig und landschaftlich sehr schön.
Der Ort selbst hat so gut wie keine Infrastruktur, aber mit dem Auto ist man sehr schnell im Nachbarort, Belley, wo es mehrere Einkaufsmöglichkeiten hat. Restaurants haben wir nicht vermisst, da wir selbst gekocht haben.
Das Haus ist urig und es fehlt an nichts. Der AuĂenbereich ist wunderschön angelegt und gepflegt, es gibt mehrere Sitzbereiche und eine neue sehr gemĂŒtliche Lounge. Der Poolbereich ist sogar mit einem kindersicheren Schloss verriegelt, was fĂŒr uns perfekt war.
Zwei Familien aus 4 Erwachsenen, 5 Kindern und Hund haben hier einen wunderbaren Urlaub verbracht. Der Vermieter ist super, antwortet sehr schnell. Vor Ort wird er von einem sehr netten Hausmeister vertreten. Das Haus ist groĂ, die Sauberkeit in Ordnung. Aufteilung und Zimmer sind gut beschrieben und gemĂŒtlich. Alleinig die Matrazen (alle!) könnten erneuert werden. Die AuĂenanlagen und der Pool sind fantastisch. Empfehlenswert!
Ein traumhaftes Objekt in herrlich ruhiger Gegend! Unsere (hohe) Erwartung wurde tatsĂ€chlich ĂŒbertroffen. Wenn denn nur der freundliche Weinbauer am Anfang der StraĂe sein Holzofenbaguette jeden Tag und nicht nur Samstags backen wĂŒrde... Zum Weinkaufen selbst, ist man fĂŒr gehobenere Wein in Jongieux besser aufgehoben und bei voller Belegung aller 6 Doppelzimmer wĂ€re ein ZusĂ€tzliches Bad/WC noch das I TĂŒpfelchen
Wir durften eine wunderbare Woche in dem stilvoll renovierten Landhaus von Jean-Louis verbringen.
Ein grosses Haus mit viel Platz in und ums Haus.
Wir waren alle begeistert.
The house is in a beautiful setting with lovely views and close to the lake beaches at bourget. We spent most of our time by the pool and the fantastic outside area which was perfect for our group of friends and children. The pool was a little chilly at the end of August, but refreshing on a hot day. The house was clean with most rooms decorated in an older style with antique french furniture. Only downside was the bathroom set-up for a group of friends with 1 shower off 1 of the bedrooms, a bath off one of the bedrooms, 1 separate toilet and a shower room in the laundry area with its own toilet.
Pragtfuldt hus i skĂžnne landlige omgivelser. Vi tilbragte en uge i huset. Udlejeren er meget hjĂŠlpsom og sympatisk. Vi kan varmt anbefale at holde familieferie i dette hus.
