Notes

  • Please note that, in order to be flexible on visitor numbers, we price on a £100 PER PERSON PER WEEK basis, but with a minimum total charge of £300 per week or part of a week. Because it's a large 4 bedroomed house with some set costs that can't be reduced (laundry, cleaning, water heating etc), we cannot do it for less than £300 per week. If your party is small (2 or 3 people) or you only want a short 4 or 5 day break please bear this in mind.
    If your party includes three or more children then we are prepared to negotiate a favourable discount of some kind.
    We no longer have different rates for summer, winter, school holidays etc - just one flat rate throughout the year.
    £100 fully-returnable deposit required. Small breakages, such as the odd glass or cup, are not counted

Holiday Home Heaven

  • 5 out of 5
  • Review Submitted: 22-Oct-2009
  • Date of Stay: Oct 2009
A lovely French house, with all the facilities of a home from home.Attractive, well-maintained, wholesome and clean, with a very efficient service provided by the owner. The setting was a charming, tranquil village, with beautiful surrounding countryside. Further afield are many interesting towns and facilities, and good access from UK would make this suitable for a short break or long stay. . . . . .my ideal heaven!

All communications with the owners were very clear and booking was completely stress free. Directions and other important information along with keys were sent in good time through the post. The cottage was very easy to find from the Calais port. The cottage was just as described, very clean, spacious and in a lovely location. It is brilliantly situated for visiting a wide range of attractions- including Boulogne Sur Mer and Berck Sur Mer which the kids loved. Beds were very comfortable and we all slept like logs. We have been to quite a few holiday rentals in France and this was one of the best in terms of size, location and value for for money. We would highly recommend it.

A wonderful chill out location and more

  • 5 out of 5
  • Review Submitted: 16-May-2012
  • Date of Stay: Apr 2012
The property is exactly as described, everything you could want and more. Only thing that was a slight problem was the shower and, only because my son has no transfer skills whatsoever, he is an adult, and needs 2 person lifting. Nevertheless there are always ways and means. His wheelchair went everywhere, and I have not seen him so relaxed in a long time. He never even opened his laptop.

The property was clean and the beds very comfortable, best we've ever woke up from abroad. The fresh bakery delivery is to die for. DO NOT MISS IT. The neighbours very friendly. Found a great restaurant in Hesdin 'Le Belle Epoque' 30 Rue Daneil Lereuil Tel. 03.21.86.42.89. The Hare Terrine wonderful, salmon crepe, oh my god. Weather was good somedays, not so others but it is such a great cottage that even staying in is a pleasure.

We were easily able to visit sites that were planned ie War Graves only an hour & half drive, and a short walk brings you to an old 15th Century Chateau.

Advantage is taking your own car, no flight hassles, supermarkets are friendly and easy and my french, was soon, after not speaking it for 40yrs, coming back into play.

Dickie and Barbara, thankyou for letting us stay in your home it is great, and we will definitelly come again. I would tell family and friends, but I think I like the idea of keeping this my secret holiday home.

What a wonderful experience

  • 5 out of 5
  • Review Submitted: 07-Jul-2011
  • Date of Stay: Jun 2011
Everythink Dickie and Barbara told us was absolutely spot on.
The cottage was just perfect. Clean well maintained and every facility you could of wanted even right down to Hot Water bottles. Having Satellite TV was great if you love watching English soaps!
The village was very quaint and to be in the countryside that was so quite and peaceful was just an absolute pleasure. Hesdin and Frudes were not far away and both have Carrefour Supermarket just outside the towns which were very handy.
The roads were quiet a pleasure to drive on as we visited Le Touquet, Arras, Dunkirk and Aidenkirk in Belgium. We did take are Passports with us for Aidenkirk, but didn't need to use them. This was our first time we have ever booked a Cottage away, but i must say this Holiday turned out to be amazing success.
It was like having a dream holiday!!
We would highly recommend this holiday and look forward to returning to Les Tardis in the near future.
Thank you Dickie & Barbara once again for a lovely holiday.

Really comfy house, like home from home

  • Review Submitted: 18-Nov-2010

Everything that was described in the listings were accurate. The house was clean, comfy, and well maintained. We really enjoyed our stay at Les Tardis and the peace of a typical rural French vilage. From the booking process to arrival the professional and friendly assistance from Dickie and Barbara were outstanding. We have rented many properties in France and this has to be one of the best.
