Villa Rental in Cozes, Near Meschers, Charente-Maritime, France - Beaches Close Reviews

This house has everything that you could need for a comfortable and quiet stay in the Cozes and Saint Georges de Didonne region. With plenty of private parking at the front and a vast garden at the back. Outdoor seating including reclining chairs and a multitude of children's games and some beach accessories are provided in outdoor storage units. We had breakfast outside every morning at the table (that can seat 6) and out the front by the BBQ in the evening. The owners (very nice) kindly provided some provisions upon our arrival including milk, coffee, Jam and a nice bottle of wine in the fridge.

The house is nicely laid out and very clean. There are three bedrooms, two of which have double beds and the other has two singles; plenty of storage in each. The lounge has ample seating and a large TV with DVD player and Satellite TV, although we spent the evenings outside drinking wine! The house has WIFI which was a blessing since my mobile data was really slow. Being a French house all the windows have outside shutters which is nice because it keeps the house cool and keeps the morning sun out as well. The kitchen has everything you can think of and certainly everything that you have at home. There is a bathroom with toilet and a separate shower room with toilet. If you need to wash anything there is also a washing machine and, a bonus for me, a dishwasher!

The neighbours were very quiet; we didn't hear anything or get woken up. It has made us determined to stay in private accommodation in the future since it is far more relaxing that any camp site.

Cozes is situated just 15 to 20 minutes away from Saint De Georges de Didonne, arguably one of the best beaches in the area. They do charge for parking along the front but the side streets have ample parking without any charges. The evening market was nice to visit. Another close by place to see is Talmont Sur Mer, with the church that is lit up on several days during the week in the summer. We also visited La Rochelle, the Green Venice Way and a number of other places, all easily accessible from Cozes.

You'll find that you are a short drive away from the local Super-U which is a good size and includes a petrol station, with reasonably priced petrol/diesel. There is a large doctors surgery and I recall seeing Vets too.

All in all a very nice place to stay and certainly made our holiday relaxing.
