A house of great charm and beauty. Swimming Pool much enjoyed by all. owner very helpful. Area beautiful though quiet- away from the main tourist hotspots. Altogether a lovely place for a family holiday.

We were lucky to stay in Boussy during some very hot days (over 35°C), but the house has thick walls and remained fresh, except the second floor under the roof. The house and swimming pool are very comfortable. My only recommendation was an extra cooking pot, large enough to serve and cook for 8-10 people. For the rest we enjoyed are week very much. When we had a question, our host was very helpful and always available (living at 200 m in a castle).

The process was easy from start to finish and the house and location were perfect for a quiet and relaxing getaway. The pool was perfect for the kids to play and for the adults to cool down from the beautiful sunshine. The area was nice and quiet with routes available to go for evening walks. Overall a wonderful property and surroundings and we would definitely come back.

A gorgeous location and a lovely exterior with a great pool.
The interior needs some attention - one dining chair fell apart and others were very rickety.
There are only two toilets in the whole property, one of which doesn’t have a handbasin.
We did enjoy our stay but felt a little disappointed with the interior of the property.

Très beau séjour!
On a passé 3 jours en famille dans cette maison, c'était vraiment super. La maison est grande, agréable à vivre, l'extérieur est spacieux (nous étions 11 et on ne se marchait pas dessus), la piscine est belle et chauffée!
La maison est dans un village est très sympa et pittoresque, juste à côté d'un belle église. On a pu visiter l'extérieur du chateau juste à côté.
Marc est très accueillant et réactif, il nous a apporté des ustensiles qui nous manquaient, et il nous a même raconté l'histoire de sa famille, du village et du chateau!
Je recommande ce séjour, et j'y retournerai avec plaisir.

Séjour en famille agréable
Location sur 3 jours en famille : grand-parents, enfants et petits-enfants. La taille de la maison permet à chacun de garder une petite indépendance si besoin.
- baignade dans la piscine
- jeux de cartes dans la salle à manger
- lecture dans le salon
- même la sieste pour certains dans leur chambre.
On serait bien resté 1 semaine complète. C'est calme et les environs sont propices à des rando et des visites.
L'hôte est très accueillant. Je conseille cette location.

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour en famille dans cette magnifique maison. Elle est vaste et on se sent tout de suite à l'aise. La piscine ainsi que les jeux extérieurs sont également un plus surtout avec des enfants.

Exactly what we needed
We stayed at le presbytère (the rectory) for four nights on our way back to England from Arcachon. Marc, the owner, was a fantastic host and was there to help when we needed it whilst also giving us complete privacy.
The property itself exceeded our already high expectations, and is in a beautiful setting just around the corner from the Chateau that has been kept in the family since (as i recall) 1024.
The private swimming pool was just what our kids needed to build confidence in their swimming, and so we split our time between swimming and exploring the beautiful surroundings including a visit to the incredible Château de Chenonceau, a Unesco world heritage site.
We are looking forward to a longer stay next time!

Séjour de charme dans ce beau presbytère
Nous étions à 2 familles et nous avons trouvé toute la place pour loger dans cette maison ancienne de charme. La belle piscine et les diners dans le jardin avec vue bucolique ont été appréciés! La région est riche de châteaux, de balades à pied ou à vélo, pas loin non plus du Futuroscope, du zoo de Beauval... et très près du spa de la Roche-Posay.
Les propriétaires, châtelains du château de Boussay voisin, sont disponibles et sympas, n'hésitez pas à leur demander de vous raconter l'histoire de leur château, depuis bientôt 1000 ans dans leur famille!
Merci pour ces belles vacances!

Séjour au top
Très chouette we en famille ! Dommage que la météo n’ait pas été plus ensoleillée mais nous avons tout de même pu profiter de la piscine et des extérieurs. La maison a beaucoup de charme, est très spacieuse, avec tout le confort nécessaire. Le jardin est très agréable, fleuri, avec vue sur la nature environnante et la terrasse côté piscine est propice aux apéros. Le propriétaire est très sympathique et nous a fait partager l’histoire du château (possibilité de se promener dans le parc du château). Nous recommandons sans hésiter !

Boussay
The property is large with plenty of space for the family. We had 6 people there but it accommodates more. The views are good, the pool was good, the location was quiet, and the owner was supportive. it is in a very small hamlet and you do need to go outside for a boulangerie, but this is about 10 mins away.

A beautiful place
We had a wonderful week in this house! We were with 8 people and had so much space. This house is made for 11 people.
The big table outside was in the shadow the whole day through. So that's the best when it's really hot outside. In the evening it got colder but then we could easily go sit inside, in the living room.
The supermarket is about 12-15 minutes by car and the best bakery is about 7 minutes away. So, very close by...
The owner of the house is very easy and friendly. He gave us a tour around his beautiful house, where he lives now (next door). And you can make very nice walks in the neighbourhood.
We had a lovely week in this house. We'd love to come back again. :-)

Beautiful property surrounded by stunning countryside
We stayed here in August this year and had a fantastic time. Beautiful house, both inside and out, with wonderful views of the countryside. Very rustic, nice pool and ping-pong table which were great for kids. Local villages for shops and eating out within 15 mins drive and supermarket 10 mins away. Lovely part of France. Very friendly and helpful owner.

If you want to get away from it all, this is perfect. Set in a beautifully kept village, next to the church and with good views of the surrounding countryside from the garden, this house is tastefully finished and comfortable, but not so perfect that you have to worry what the kids are up to. The pool is salt water and a great temperature. Outside table is in the shade of the house all day, a real bonus when it’s hot. Kitchen has most things people who cook would want, and there’s an indoor dining room too. With big rooms this house never feels cramped, even with all the beds filled. Bring mosquito repellant in the summer.

A beautiful house set in an idyllic french hamlet
The property was very comfortable and spacious with loads of character. The charming church bells ring out the time during the day and foxes, deers, birds of prey can be spotted in the surrounding fields and skies. There are lovely walks to enjoy close by the chateau and the pool surrounded by hollyhocks is most refreshing before relaxing in the garden. Our two families ate outside most evenings though there is a lovely dining room also. Nearby Roche Posay has lovely shops and spa treatments to enjoy as well as regular markets and a pretty river amenity area. We would definitely return to this house and this area and thank Marc and Delphine for their courtesy and respect.

On a beaucoup apprécié notre séjour dans la maison du presbytère . On a pu dormir avec confort à dix
Monsieur dubecdelièvre nous a bien accueilli dans sa maison de famille. La maison est située dans un village très tranquille avec des belles vues toutes autour de la maison. Le propriétaire nous a aussi fait un tour privé de son château médiéval et nous a expliqué l'histoire du château qui appartient à sa famille depuis presque mille ans . Pendant notre séjour on a pu faire beaucoup d activités dans la région comme canoë, châteaux, cyclisme etc .
