Photos and Description of the Coutras vacation farmhouse rental sleeps from 2 to12 with 5 bathrooms, self-catering family farmhouse.

The house is light and airy and set in an idyllic setting on the river L'isle. With spacious rooms and easy to look after furnishings, making it easy for you to relax. Ideal for a family holiday with fully equipped kitchen and laundry. The exceptional covered terrace, which runs the full length of the house is ideal for outdoor dining and barbecues, playing table tennis or just enjoying the view. A private salt water heated swimming pool (10x5 mts and 1.5mts deep)is situated just off the terrace, surrounded by wood decking and luscious planting. A wall surrounds the pool making it secure when its not in use. There is rich planting down to the garden and river(unfenced), where there are two 2-man canoes available with life jackets (2 adult & 2children sizes), so you can explore the river L'isle. We occupy a adjoining house and garden separated from the main house , I am on hand should you require anything. .

Further details for this vacation farmhouse rental in Coutras, France

What some of our clients said: 2006 . Jo's house in Coutras exceeds every description on her website. The prospect from the pool and terrace to the river is breathtakingly beautiful: a combination of nature and planning that captures the serenity of this wonderful landscape. The house is a gem and lacks not a single convenience from the well-equipped kitchen to the marvelous mattresses; Jo herself has the art of creating comfort and offering hospitality without ever being obtrusive.The surrounding area is a delight to explore from the obvious as St.Emillion, to the wonderfully unexpected such as the cheese lady at the Libourne market ! Be prepared to dream of staying or, at the least, of returning annually. The Zorns, Brookline, MA, USA. 2006/7

2005/6: My family fell in love with the farmhouse on sight, i have to admit i was very taken with the terrace, pictures will never do it justice , a private oasis to relax in the midst of the heat wave or thunderstom ! trips to Bordeaux for the day on the new tram and its 'park & ride' are a must , Brantome in the dordogne, a beautifull location and exploring St Emillion with all is wine was fantastic. Our entire vacation was marvelous! Thank you Jo Noel Johnson, Santa Barbara, CA. 2007 Thank you for a great holiday Jo , I really loved the house. Matthew, age 11, Uk 2005 The best house we have stayed in in a long time and we are 12 people who have rented alot of houses, thank you ..... the King family, UK

2008: We had a wonderful spring holiday-a few rainy days but good for exploreing the suroungings; the house is perfect for a large family group. our danish-italian cook like the well equiped kitchen and the kids (4+1) thought the toys where excellent. The dinningroom was the perfect place to celebrate a 60th anniversay, thank you , we are all looking forwrd to coming back one day! Anni and family from Denmark and Finland

A great family holiday

lopat Essex
Review Submitted: September 2, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We rented this property last week. Three families, each with two children ranging from 7 months to 5 years. We had a wonderful stay. The photos really don't do the house justice in terms of the overall space available. All the rooms are vast including the entrance hallway. The owner is very helpful and has a whole cupboard full of childrens toys and games etc... Also a very interesting selection of books and games for the adults. It really did feel like a home from home - not so smart that you felt like you couldn't touch anything for fear of breakages but very tastefully and thoughtfully furnished. The kitchen is also very well set up. Our only slight negative was that four of the bathrooms had hand held showers only. An extra stand alone shower would have been useful.

There is plenty to do in the local area. St Emilion and Bordeaux are both well worth a visit. All in all a great holiday and thank you. We'll be back!

Traumhafte Sommertage in Coutras

Curry Gehrden/Deutschland
Review Submitted: August 23, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Jeder von uns hat sich beim ersten Anblick sofort in dieses wunderschöne Haus und das traumhafte Grundstück verliebt. Die Kinder sagten sofort: hier fahren wir im nächsten Jahr wieder hin!!!
Wir haben in diesem Sommer (2009) wundervoll entspannte Tage in Coutras genossen. Sowohl das liebevoll und komfortabel ausgestattete Haus als auch das wunderschöne Grundstück boten für jeden einzelnen die Möglichkeit, sich einmal zurückzuziehen.
Wir erinnern uns sehr gerne an...
das gemeinsame Kochen in der perfekt ausgestatteten Küche, romantische Abende auf der Terasse bei Kerzenlicht und leckerem Wein aus der Region, die Klaviermusik unserer Kinder, Erfrischung im gepflegtem Pool, Kanufahrten auf der L'Isle, schöne und interessante Ausflüge nach Bordeaux, Libourne, Bergerac, Saint Emilion und den Atlantik....und natürlich an die liebevolle Betreuung durch Jo und ihre Eltern!
Vielen Dank...ihr habt wirklich ein kleines Paradies geschaffen...Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Only one word:

Gaiac Bazel - Belgium
Review Submitted: August 16, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Bazel Belgium: We had a superb stay at the Vieille Ferme in Coutras. We where there with all the kids and there partners. In fact we should leave this comment open because there are no words to describe how wonderfull everything was. There might be a possible description and to put in words related to the region: " Premier Grand Cru Classé Chateau Vieille Ferme ". We ' ll be back!

Happy Belgians

Happy Belgian Lier, BELGIUM
Review Submitted: July 28, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We had an excellent stay in "La Vieille Ferme" in Coutras from July 18th till July 25th. We were 5 adults and 7 children and all of us found a very pleasant "harbour" of rest or activity/recreation. Especially the river Isle, flowing really in the backyard of this holliday farmhouse, attracted most of the children and their parents. The fact that there are 2 kayaks and 1 canoe available (including 6 swimjackets) gave us all many hours of joy on this wonderful piece of aquatic nature.
I definitely recommend this house to all families with children who can swim and who are enjoying nature and water activities.
Also the outside very spacious terrace is a "natural beauty" which we loved very much.

Absolutely wonderful house

rsfrankl Washington, DC
Review Submitted: July 20, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Everything about this house was as good or better than we expected - it is incredibly spacious and completely outfitted for as many as 12 people. We enjoyed being at the pool or on the patio so much that it was difficult to persuade ourselves to get out and look around.

The location of the house is perfect for quick trips to the many surrounding vineyards and picturesque villages and is well situated for day trips. The day we spent at the beach near Arcachon was one of our kids' favorites, as was the day at the castle ruins of Bonaguil (both were a couple hours' drive but were very well worth the time).
