We were 5 adults, plus the dog, shattered and weary and desperate for a good holiday. We left La Salle after two weeks feeling renewed, recharged and contented knowing that we had chosen wisely, and we all know that feeling when we wish we hadn't bothered. We were suntanned, a stone heavier, and thanks to the local Chateau and their production of excellent (cheap) wines our kidneys were plumper too. Even the dog was bouncier and for a springer puppy that's a sight to behold. Needless to say we have already booked for our return holiday in 2017. We were impressed with the following: Decent equipment in the kitchen, robust utensils, good serving dishes, proper coffee machine etc, not the usual skanky stuff that can be found in some rental properties. The oven, not that we used it much, as we used the very good quality bbq was in good working order and large enough for a family. The bathrooms, all en-suite were well thought out, the showers were powerful and plenty of hot water too. The gardens are gorgeous and cared for with love. The fridge freezer is huge, with the added bonus of fresh ice on tap, very handy to keep that Rose wine cool. There are excellent supermarkets close by. The peace and quiet was one of the highlights for us. We live in central London and with its constant noise, it was sheer bliss listening to bees humming around the lavender and nothing else. The pool was warm and good for doing the odd length when lethargy got the better of us, and set nicely away from the house. On reflection and reading this review we were impressed with everything! Our final evening, we barbecued, we sat outside late into the night star gazing, there is no light pollution and the sky was unimaginably beautiful, and, dare i say it, a rather romantic end to our perfect holiday. Well done Jill and Terry for creating a little bit of paradise for us weary souls to recharge and carry on.
