Holiday Reviews from the Owners’ site

"Amazing"I would not hesitate recommending this fabulous property. The owners and staff go out of their way to make your stay one you will never forget. We spent nine weeks travelling Spain and France but nothing compared to this property and the meals were five star gourmet. It is a beautiful home surrounded by immaculate grounds, swimming pool and gardens. There is a village within walking distance, beautiful lakes, cycle paths, ocean and interesting towns to visit nearby. making this location a must. Judy and Rex Growden, June 2010

"Luxuriously relaxed holiday for all the family"From initial enquiry to final departure, nothing was too much trouble for Q and his team. Special diets, local top tips, booking restaurants, arranging surf lessons for our 11 and 14 yr iold boys to name but a few! The house is grand and typically french, intimate enough to create a warm atmosphere and large enough to always find a quiet spot to just read a book. Bedrooms and bathrooms are comfortable, clean and spacious, whilst not being over elaborate. Location is great, close to all ammenities and perfect if you want to start your holiday without a long journey from any of the 3 regional airports serving the property. This has the added benefit of being flexibile with flight times from the UK. A few good restaurants serving reasonably priced local menus, go karting, golf and the beach all within cycling distance (if you have the energy or inclination to drag yourself away from the immaculately maintained pool at the house!) Best things about this holiday are the unique blend of informal style coupled with high levels of service and cuisine. As a holiday for families with young teenagers, nothing we have found beats the easily acessible safe activities during the day, coupled with a calm and sophisticated dinner served under the magnolia tree as the sun sets and you enjoy a glass or two of well earned local wine! Our only negative comment would be the condition of the tennis court surface, which does throw up an occasional wild bounce! Derek, Cathy, James & Laurence, August 2010

 

"Impeccable service"Overall we had a wonderfull stay with Quintin in Soustons. However the kitchen deserves a special remark (Duschan really is a great chef) ! We had some fantastic gourmet dinners out on the front terrace. Thanks very much to the whole team for a great weeks holliday.Laurent, Sofie & Bastiaan, July 2010

“We all had a fantastic time and I think you might see some or all of us again in the future. In terms of feedback, people particularly liked the food including the children's food which I thought was excellent. Jo and Stuart were extremely professional. They are both clearly very experienced and capable and are exactly the right personalities for this type of set up. Ollie was also great and he was constantly looking for ways to help. Joseph at the surf school was excellent and almost everyone in our group ended up having a lesson with him and they all enjoyed it so please pass on our thanks to him.” John, Judith, Iris, Edward & Sylvie, July 2007

“Myself and all the girls would like to thank you for your kind hospitality, we all had a fantastic time and the house and grounds are really beautiful, we will be talking about our trip for a long time.” Lauren Hunter, Sept 2007

“Once again, many thanks for a splendid week. We are now suffering from withdrawal symptoms and when we asked my wife for canapés before dinner last night we were promptly told to take a running jump!! Back to earth with a big bump I am afraid!” Ian, April 2007

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bellegarde, it was superb. The food, the girls, the beautiful house and of course yourselves made our week totally relaxing and one definitely to be repeated.
