Sleeps 6 People
£1280 - £2080 Per Week

Villa Marguerite is situated in a peninsula facing the Ile de Re, about 1.5 km from the villages of La Faute sur Mer (ocean side) and L' Aiguillon sur Mer (a traditional fishing port on the estuary side), 10 km South of La Tranche sur Mer, and about 45 km North of the port of La Rochelle by road – 15 km maximum as the crow flies or by sea across the bay. The area is known as the “Cote de Lumiere” for its sunshine and luminosity.

Our property is on the ocean side of the peninsula, about 100 metres from the 25 km long sandy beaches ( the sea won an award in recent years for its cleanliness), with no road between us and the sea – just a small pine forest. It is situated well back from the road, and is secluded within its own 1 acre wooded land (fenced), but not isolated.

The immediate area surrounding our property is composed of private properties, mostly within similarly large wooded gardens, and is very quiet, yet only about 1.5 km from the villages with all amenities, including street markets, shops (there is a particularly good bakery/patisserie in La Faute-sur-Mer which sells “real” bread, fresh croissants and delicious cake, all baked on the premises, and of course ice creams), supermarket, cinema, pharmacy, doctors, and of course plenty of restaurants selling sea food and other local delicacies, crepe bars and food to take away.

There are various local sport facilities, including a marina, tennis courts, sailing school at L’Aiguillon-sur-mer, and a golf course about 20 minutes away. There are also many bird and nature reserves (one is at the end of our garden, but not open to the public). Historic towns and buildings, etc. are not far away (Lucon, La Rochelle, for instance) and one can spend a day “Au Puits du Fou”, famous for its historical revival of the Wars of Vendee and local history (“sons et lumieres”) by night and for its fully “inhabited” reconstructed medieval village and craft workshops.

The villa is well equipped and spacious :
3 double bedrooms of which one en-suite:
2 bright bedrooms, each with 2 single beds (sleep 4) and large built-in wardrobes and shelving. These bedrooms share one shower room and have direct access to the terraces.

The master bedroom, with one king size bed (sleeps 2 in comfort), large built-in wardrobe and shelving and shower room en-suite, a mezzanine and private balcony.

The above 2 shower rooms have, each: toilets, double wash basins over vanity units (plenty of storage space) and spacious shower. Ventilation and windows.

Spacious living room, satellite TV, telephone. Wide double sliding doors opening onto 3 different aspects of the garden, with direct access to the terraces.

Entrance hall, with separated cloakroom.

Fully equipped and fitted kitchen/utility area: dishwasher and washing machine, 2 fridges, ceramic hob, electric oven with built-in rotissoire. Kitchen sink and deep laundry sink. Large built-in and suspended cupboards. Tiled working surfaces and splash backs.

Electric appliances, including mixer and kettle. Glass, china ware and cutlery. Dishwasher and washing powder supplied.

Tiled floors in the living areas. Wall to wall carpet in the bedrooms, bathrooms and on the mezzanine.

Integral garage

Terraces around to catch the sun or shelter from it. Plenty of garden furniture, including one very large sunshade, and there is a barbecue. Electric Central Heating for out of season holidays.
