Sehr schöne, gut ausgestattete Ferienwohnung über zwei Etagen. Die Vermieterin war sehr freundlich und immer hilfsbereit. Schöner sauberer Pool. Leider während unseres Aufenthalts viele Mücken (Fenster und Türen der Wohnung mit Mückengittern).

Drei angenehme Wochen im Juni
Wir haben in der Domaine Laforest im Juni drei sehr angenehme Wochen verbracht. Das Anwesen ist sehr gepflegt und sicher, außerdem nicht weit vom kleinen Ortskern von Fontvieille, aber Auto erforderlich. Auch der Pool ist schön groß und sauber. Frau Sylvie kümmert sich umgehend, zuverlässig und effizient um etwaige Problemchen. Ebenso wie unsere Nachbarn kommen wir wahrscheinlich wieder.

Entspannte Tage in der Provence
Es waren 7 wunderschöne entspannte Tage. Die Lage war hervorragend für Ausflüge in die Umgebung. Man konnte aber auch vor Ort relaxen oder schöne Wanderungen mit dem Hund unternehmen. Danke auch an Sylvie für die herzliche Begrüßung.

Super gîte
Nous avons passé une superbe semaine en Camargue dans le gîte de Sylvie. Très bon accueil et personne très agréable. Le gîte est très bien équipé, très propre et très bien situé. Cadre idyllique, au calme et idéal pour faire des randonnées en partant du gîte. Très belle piscine, que nous n'avons malheureusement pas pu profiter car beaucoup de vent et froid durant notre semaine de vacances. Fontvielle est idéal pour silloner la Camargue. Nous avons visiter le Grau du Roi, Aigues Mortes, Saint Laurent d'Aigouze (pour les fan de ITC), les Baux de provence, Arles.... Adresse à retenir, nous reviendrons !

sehr empfehlenswert
Hinweis für Gehbehinderte: Die Treppe im Appartment Nr. 3 zu den Schlafzimmern, zu Bad und Toilette macht eine relativ enge 180°-Biegung. Die Zufahrt von der Landstraße zum Grundstück hat vier asphaltgraue Betonschweller, die nicht bei jedem Licht gut zu erkennen sind.

Sehr schöne, gepflegte und ruhig gelegene Wohnanlage mit 5 nebeneinander liegenden Wohneinheiten. Wunderbarer Blick in einen großen, mit alten Platanen bestandenen Garten. Sehr gepflegter und sauberer Pool-Bererich. Wohnungen bieten ausreichend Platz für 2-4 Personen; großzügiger, mit guten Möbeln ausgestatteter Wohn-Essbereich, modernes Bad, gut ausgestattete Küche, Schlafzimmer mit ausreichend Schrankplatz und guten Betten.
