Family Friendly Barn Conversion set in 3 Acres

Tranquil and rural yet just a few minutes from villages, restaurants and river beaches, Cabanes is a wonderful holiday letting in France where you can completely unwind and get away from it all. Grownups will love the privacy, the comfortable rustic decor, the mature gardens and the stunning views, and little ones will adore the pool, the numerous play areas and the resident animals. You could never be bored on-site, with sun terraces, extensive gardens and a host of on site equipment for all ages  to enjoy, but it would be a great shame not to venture out and explore markets, vineyards, chateaux and the delightful Aquitaine landscape. As large group holiday homes go, this one is superb.  This review, from a 2024 customer, says it all:

We were a party of 6 adults and 2 toddlers (both aged 3). Las Cabanes was a wonderful place for us to call home for 2 weeks.  Especially so, as we didn't get the best weather. The lengths Julie and Steve went to to cater for our young children was far in excess of anything we could have expected. The play park behind the house, the astro-turfed area with toddler cars, the guinea-pig hutch, the bikes on offer, the bits and bobs to play with in the pool; not to mention the mezzanine area inside that is so well stocked with toys. We had 4 rainy days and the kids were kept well entertained. It is also safe - there are plenty of baby gates, cots, fans, black-out-blinds, and other provisions above and beyond what you would expect a host to provide.

The location is beautifully secluded while still within reach of towns, supermarkets, tourist destinations, and everything else you would want and expect while visiting France. Julie and Steve provide a great selection of local destination ideas, some of which we would definitely have missed had they not brought it to our attention.  The pool is fantastic. It makes such a difference to have the water at a manageable temperature for enticing the kids to jump in and not immediately want to jump out and never go back!

The house is comfortably spacious for 3 couples, and tastefully maintained. There are plenty of bathrooms and enough space for people to maneuver around without getting in each others way. There is plenty for adults to do too, the pool is big enough to entertain the whole family, there are 2 BBQs, a pool table, darts board, bikes, plenty of outdoor space to sit and enjoy the evenings.

When we first saw the listing, we were a little put off by the fact that the owners live on-site. But actually, it was perfect. They were on hand to help us with a couple of queries here and there, and to figure out plans for the rainy days, and are lovely people to just say hello to as/when they are watering the plants or cleaning the pool in the morning. But otherwise keep themselves to themselves and live suitably far away that you do feel privacy is maintained.  We will certainly be back.
