Charente Holiday Cottage: COMMENTS FROM GUESTS

We ask all guests for feedback after their stay.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Anam Cara. The booking arrangements were smooth and efficient and we were very grateful for the voluminous information that you sent prior to our arrival. As you said, Anam Cara was easy to find and we quickly settled in. The garden, pool and children's games were superb and we spent many enjoyable hours relaxing there. Overall, we thought Anam Cara
represented good value for money and we enjoyed our stay.”

“We did indeed have a great time at Anam Cara – it was just the right place for us. We especially enjoyed Aubeterre-sur-Dronne, Sainte, Coulon, Melle (and the abbey in Celles is wonderful too), Nanteuil (have you discovered the arboretum?), Cognac (the Martell tour is really good), La Rochelle and the Ile de Re, the bakery van, Angouleme, Le Rejallant, the bike (bless you!!!!!), and the weekly Ruffec market. “ Wolfe Family April 2007

“We had a fantastic time in France. The weather ranged from 25 - 36 degrees throughout the two weeks. The neighbour, Jean-Claude was lovely and visited regularly to make sure all was well. When we first arrived we found a nest of blackbirds and it was wonderful to see them grow and finally fledge two days before we left. The birds there are lovely. The house was lovely, although we didn't spend much time inside, only for sleeping and washing. The house book was excellent and we visited a couple of the places listed - the trip to Martell in Cognac was exceptional. We are very happy that we found your house to stay in for this holiday. It was in a lovely setting and you have thought very well about what would make an enjoyable holiday for all. The welcome pack was a lovely idea and gratefully received after the long journey. Thanks again for allowing us to use your house as our holiday home.Kind Regards, Holland Family . June 2006”

Hello John,
We enjoyed our holiday and Anam Cara was fine. Thank you for letting us stay there and for the straightforward booking arrangements. We had some good days out - Tusson (fascinating) and Oradour. The cottage was charming and personal and very pleasantly decorated and furnished. We were especially pleased with the privacy of Anam Cara's garden and the October weather was warm enough for us to eat outside. Margaret G. October 2007

Hi John,
Your communications, directions and help with all matters concerning booking/travelling/what to do were fantastic. You answered e-mails quickly, confirmed bookings and made arrangements very clear from the outset. Our travel arrangements to get to Anam Cara went very smoothly and we arrived without any hassles at all. Thank you so much for all your help with regards to this. Anam Cara is a beautiful idyllic place.
Thanks for an interesting stay in the lovely Anam Cara - all the books and DVD's in the house did indeed keep us entertained for hours on end - I don't think I have ever stayed somewhere which has so much local information/maps/places to visit. Thanks John Best regards Sarah M. September 2006

Hi,

Yes we had a lovely time.The house was everything that you promised and the wine and chocolate were very much appreciated as we had a flight delay and only arrived about 10.30pm.
Bordeaux and Cognac were beautiful and we had lovely days there. We cooked in the house quite a lot and the fire was lovely.The best day weather wise was Friday and we enjoyed a great barbecue in the garden.There was something there for all our needs and we would not hesitate to reccommend it to anyone. Thank you for a lovely holiday Yours Sincerely Elaine McLean 2007

“Dear John,
We had a wonderful time at ‘Anam Cara’. Your card was very thoughtful. We felt everything was very efficiently arranged and the information you sent us very helpful. The house was lovely and the garden very beautiful. We thought the house was very well equipped. We made good use of the pool, the children enjoyed it tremendously. Our older child was very grateful for the DVDs! He actually put watching ‘Popeye’ as one of his holiday highlights,along with the pool! It was our most relaxing family holiday.
There was too much to see and do in the area and unfortunately not enough time. The neighbours and the people in the village were very friendly and welcoming.
We very much hope to revisit ‘Anam Cara’ in 2008. Thank you for letting use your very pretty cottage.” James Family. August 2006
