Excellent séjour à la Couarde
Nous avons passé une excellente semaine dans cette maison idéalement située dans le village et dans l'île. On est au calme tout en étant au coeur du village, à deux pas de la boulangerie, des commerces, des restaurants et de la location de vélo. La plage se trouve aussi à proximité ainsi que les pistes cyclables.
Nous avons visité l'île en vélo, en découvrant des paysages magnifiques.
La maison est très bien équipée et très propre. Rien ne manque.
Caroline et Franck sont des hôtes exceptionnels, très sympathiques et attentionnés.
Un grand merci à tous les 2 pour leur accueil.

Un must
Cette propriété est très bien placée : au milieu de l'île, au centre de la couarde, dans le centre-ville et à proximité des magasins et de la plage. Elle est originale, un ancien Chai, superbe, et elle offre tout le confort souhaité.

Charmante maison
Logement conforme à nos attentes, même mieux. La maison est agréable, le jardin est très sympa. Située dans le cœur de la Couarde, tout est à proximité, la plage est à 5 minutes à pieds, le marché ouvert tous les matins est à 3 minutes. Franck, le propriétaire des lieux est très agréable, communication au top, et d’une vraie gentillesse. Nous reviendrons sans hésiter.

Excellent in so many ways
Franck really looked after us-lovely bloke. He thinks about everything - and is always contactable before/during the stay. He'll book a taxi to/from the airport - worth accepting as the bus trip appears to take some time and eat into the holiday. The taxi person Franck books also knows where to drop off/pick up - by La Cabine de Bain restaurant.
The holiday in brief from our perspective:
Hire/take bikes. This is a wonderful place for cycling - flat and easy unless cycling into what can be quite strong winds. St Martin - lots to see/do, Le Boix Plage - massive market, good beach, and Loix (which we found a little boring) are all within a 30-45 minute cycle ride (quicker for a strong cyclist), and the scenery is wonderful. The cycle shop Franck recommended didn't have any electric bikes - but the hire place by Carrefour did (really nice bloke in there). However, electric bike aren't usually necessary (I was fine without) and bumps up hire price.
The house has everything needed. It says no shower, but there is a really good hot shower in the bath. The house is very pretty, modernised throughout - very easy to keep clean.
Carrefour - turn right out of the alleyway, immediately left down Rue de La Motte then right into Rue de La Mail. There is also a really good market in a large building opposite Carrefour (except Monday I think), and most days in the town square.
Eating out - loads of places to drop into on the cycle routes most specialising in oysters and other sea food. Like all of France - there are lots of places to eat in the small towns - we enjoyed St Martin around the harbour. Taking a picnic keeps the price down of course. We only ate out a couple of times - both time at La Cabine de Bain - which was excellent and very friendly. The cost rises quickly with everything beyond a main course (£20-25), but the food was wonderful, there was an amuse bouche on both occasions - we would highly recommend this place - (do - dress warm as the temperature can drop quickly in the evening (we were there in September).
Practicalities:
The house is down an alleyway directly opposite the entrance to La Cabine de Bain restaurant.
Sunday evening - restaurants open nearer the beach - not so much in town centre
The pizza place 'A la carabistoule' - avoid .... the pizzas are terrible.
Back late - there is a light switch behind the dustbin.
Mosquitoes - repellents etc. at Carrefour

This is a great property ...
This is a great property in a great location. The layout of the house is simple and well thought out, with comfortable beds and plenty of storage space upstairs. The garden is incredibly quiet considering the location in the centre of the pleasant village. We made good use of the large barbeque and outdoor furniture to enjoy the locally bought food in the warm sunshine.
Although in the centre of the village, access is from the traffic-free main street down a short 'impasse' which made it feel very safe for our young children whenever we left the property. The village shops are pretty much on your doorstep, together with the church and small carousel that seems to be a fixture in every village on the island. A few minutes walk beyond the church is the playground for the village, which you could easily miss but is a peaceful and relaxing space to take the kids in the evening.
The walk to the beach is about 10mins with only one fairly busy road to cross, there are several zebra crossings and the traffic in early June was quite sedate and sparse anyway.
There are several cycle hire shops in the village. We used the closest to the property, just to the right as you leave the impasse. They were very patient with us on our first visit and the hire cost was very reasonable - even better value if you hire bikes for several days consecutively.
The owner of the property was extremely friendly and helpful, right from our first contact with him by email to his meeting us on arrival and then on the morning we left. He willingly booked our taxi back to the airport for us on the day we left and was genuinely happy to assist with anything we required.
We would definitely like to return to this property in the future and it contributed to what was a perfect holiday for the four of us.

"La Couarde sur mer is a beautiful village and the lovely cottage owned by M. Duvernay is a perfect place to stay. Near the boulangerie, close to a fantastic beach, bike rentals - the works. Only wish we could have stayed longer. The owner was a charming host and even lent my son a rugby ball. We would all love to go back and having explored the island we would definitely chose this cottage again."

"A lovely holiday cottage, full of character and in an ideal central location in La Couarde.
Spotlessly clean, private garden and where nicer to stay than the subject of numerous postcards found in the village.
Frank was there to greet us on arrival, most charming and helpful and made us feel at home.
We will certainly return for another holiday there as soon as able."

"My husband, 6 month old ...
"My husband, 6 month old baby and I had a lovely holiday in Franck's house in La Couarde. It was was exactly as it appeared in the pictures, very clean and with everything we needed. It was lovely relaxing in the garden and was close to all the fabulous things La Couarde and the Ile de Re have to offer. The location of the house, set back down an alley way off the high street was excellent. Noise was not a problem at all, the house and garden were so quiet you could hear a pin drop. We walked everywhere, as our baby was too small to go in a bike chariot, or caught the bus. The beaches and the walk through the vineyards between La Couarde and Le Bois Plage were particularly lovely. Franck went out of his way to make our stay a pleasant one. He even collected us from the railway station at 11.15pm at night as we missed our connecting train from Paris and lost our rental car. We can't thank Franck enough and recommend his house to anyone looking for an extremely pleasant stay in La Couarde."

Franck couldn't have been more helpful and friendly. The location of the house was perfect, close to all the shops, restaurants and beaches but without any noise because the house is situated down an alley way. We will definatley be coming back!"

"From the start we were very impressed by the care the owner took to welcome us to the property and the overall cleaniness and facilities this lovely old house offered us. The house is ideally situated in the centre of the La Couarde village with all amenities close by. The local restaurants are fantastic (we particularly liked 'Le Cabin du Bain' superb food) and the village fishmonger and bakery have excellent produce. We just parked our car and spent most of our week riding our cycles around one of the many cycle trails and going to the beach all within easy walking/cycling distance from the house. (The owners were able to get us a 10% discount at the local cycle shop as well). The house had everything we wanted to make our stay enjoyable including washing machine and a dishwasher! The location is lovely & quiet dispute the fact its right in the village centre/off the High Street and has a calm and tranquil feel. Ile de Re is great for family holidays, we will definately return and stay at this house again. Merci bien, Francke and Caroline"
