Very enjoyable stay

Small house with lovely garden near the caves, with very easy parking in late August. Small kitchen but well equipped. Garden/beach chairs etc provided. Very helpful owner, good communication. Great to have the supermarket so near, just a few minutes walk. Plages de Nonnes is beautiful, 15 mins walk - with good beach bar serving good range of food and drinks. Good base to explore the area, lots to see and do.

Perfect location for a break by the coast

We had a wonderful time staying in Rose Tremaine, it was small but perfectly formed for us and our two small children. The kids really appreciated the toys, both for in the house and the beach and we appreciated the location, being able to walk to the nearest beach or into the village was great. The beaches, sandy, gently shelving and not too busy even in school holidays and we made the most of them, any attempts at something more cultural failed and we headed back to the beach. Shelly emailed lots of ideas about where to eat and go which was much appreciated. A great place to stay.

Characterful and Convenient

Rose Tremiere is a characterful property perfectly situated in a quiet residential corner of Meschers between the shops, the port and the beach. It is well appointed, kept spotlessly clean and we took great pleasure in eating our meals below the trees in the garden. We enjoyed lots of walking nearby but also found it easy to drive to the many interesting places further along the coast in both directions.

Good location but....

Good location spoilt by dogs in adjoining garden who, if they were out, barked every time we moved. Small house, quite cave like, which was clearly kitted out to a very tight budget. Beds not great, but it did have wifi and a TV.

A relaxing holiday in a comfortable gite.

We have just had a wonderful, relaxing holiday based at Rose Tremiere, situated in a peaceful location in Meschers. Shelley provided lots of useful information about the cottage and the local area in advance of our visit and also when she met us on arrival - it was good to have that personal contact. The property was clean and equipped as described on the website. The garden was an added bonus and the shade of the large tree invaluable in the high temperatures we experienced. It really is within walking distance of the beach, shops and port - we went for days without moving the car. Rochefort (about 45mins / 1hour away) was a good day out. The walk to Talmont with all of the birds in the marsh area was also great - for a cooler day as there is no shade. We would definitely stay here again if we return to this part of France. Thank you Shelley for such a warm welcome and a lovely base for our holiday.

About the host

Hosted by Shelley Smith

We moved to SW France from London in 2002 with our two young children. We live in the countryside, 1 hour from Meschers, but are always availabel if you need us and we will see you into our houses.
We had a successful antiques and collectables business, but craved the quieter life for ourselves and our children. As Carl was a builder before, it was no problem for us to do up our own houses.
We still love going to brocante markets and shops and continue our passion for old things by kitting out our houses and our home.

Why they chose this property

We love Meschers as it is a small town by the sea. Everything is easily accessible on foot - the beach, shops, bars, restaurants, supermarket, pleasure port and fresh produce market.
It is a great base for exploring the area too, there is so much to see and do if you want to go out and about. If not, it's a lovely part of the world to wander - pine forests, cave dwellings in the cliff face, or just sit and have a drink and watch the world go by.
Easy access by road (A16 motorway is 30 mins away), Bordeaux and La Rochelle airports.

What makes this property unique

No long hot car journey, enjoy the beach when you want, great for relaxing, playing, sailing, jet skis etc. available to hire either at Meschers or at nearby St Georges de Didonne.
Walk down to a local restaurant, or get BBQ provisions from the market or supermarket.
Relax in the garden or go out and about.
