About Catherine Broughton
The beach! We love the beach, barely 4 kms. We chose this area for its excellent climate, offering warm, lazy spring & autumn days & long hot summers. There is something for every age group in the general area, the beaches being a particular attraction. We bought this huge old place in 1995 & restored it ourselves.Old properties, dating to the 17th century. Staff available if there is anything you need.
Catherine Broughton purchased this cottage in 1995
Why Catherine Broughton chose Rochefort - Marennes area
We have always been interested in history, and this property is loaded with it. Nazis occupied the Chateau during WWII. The original property was much bigger and was burnt to the ground during the French Revolution. We have kept as much as we possibly can of the old features and have worked hard at retaining the traditional rural character of the place. You will not find stream-lined bathrooms and kitchens here, though there is of course everything you need for a wonderful holiday - sunshine included, all being well !
What makes this cottage unique
proximity of beaches
marvellous solar-heated pool
very child-friendly and secure (that is the one thing families comment on every year)
personal service
Guestbook comments from the manager
We were not disappointed with this. It is a very old cottage, so a bit on the dark side, but with several extremely interesting features, and not at all expensive. We were greeted by the owner's son, who was very helpful. We made a mistake in bringing our own bedding and in future would hire it, towels likewise, but apart from that drag of having to make up our own beds when we were very tired it was a great holiday. The village restaurant seems to be shut half the time, but there is a nice general store and a baker, all just one minute's walk away. There is a road not far with a bit of a background hum of traffic, but nothing that bothered us. All in all very good.

Upon receipt of deposit we will send you further information on the area and confirm details. Linen, cot etc. can be hired, let us know.

Notes on prices:
All cottage prices are based on 2 people per bedroom; we charge a small supplement for one extra person per cottage. In the Chateau we take 12 people with a supplement for up to 2 extra people - the property will take more but we find it creates too much wear and tear. Utilities are included in peak season.

Brilliant base for a family holiday.
Thoroughly recommend this as a beautiful place to stay. Family friendly. Well positioned
Perfect family getaway
Lovely french stone cottages, all mod cons, fab for kids as fully enclosed, lovely staff, really close to several tourist hotspots, the beach and restaurants. Have already booked for next year!
Charming 3 bedroom cottage with its own garden.
We had a lovely holiday thank you! A very comfortable cottage which had everything we needed plus the huge pool outside which the children loved. So much to see and do in the area! Thankyou!

Romans left an amphitheatre and other buildings. Napoleon had fortifications built on every strategic point. The beach at Marennes has a giant man made sea lagoon ideal for kids. Beaches on the island of Oleron and the Cote Sauvage are well known for surfing. Naturist beaches on Oleron and in the Medoc nearby.

Ryanair Easyjet and FlyBe to La Rochelle (half an hour by car) and sometimes flights are as cheap as £1 plus taxes!! You will be sent a map and full directions well in advance of your holiday.
Ferries - we always advise people not to worry when ferries appear all booked; there is always a place from one crossing or another. The nearest is St Malo - 5/6 hours by car.
Distances:
Beaches six to ten miles, St Just village 1/4 mile, Marennes for main shopping 4 miles, Ronce les Bains tourist seaside town 9 miles, Saintes (lovely Roman town) 20 miles, Royan for nightlife, seaside fun and restaurants 20 miles. Ile d Oleron (free bridge) for huge beaches and wonderful cycle tracks around the island, sea food restaurants 6 miles, Rochefort old military town with loads of history 12 miles, Cote Sauvage (Wild coast) surfing and beaches (some naturist), 8 miles.
Further Details:
In the village is a butcher, 2 bakers, small coop, chemist, doctor, wine and beer store, In Marennes about five miles away there are two big supermarkets, banks, post office and most shops & restaurants + nice port & marina.
Near St Just there is a small airport where one can learn to fly or parachute. On the way to Marennes there is an archery and shooting range and on Oleron there is a very good riding school. There is tennis in the village and football and other ball games as well.
