Villa Rudel

Beautiful spacious villa in a glorious part of France. The villa is immaculate on the inside and outside. The swimming pool is wonderful. The bedrooms and living areas are clean and comfortable. The leisure equipment went down a treat with the children - badminton, table tennis, table football and bicycles! The host is proactive, helpful and friendly. We had the best time and would love to return. Highly recommended!

Surrounded by countryside, vineyards, forests and beautiful villages, the property offers complete peace and quiet. Everything has been thought of with your wellbeing in mind. The pool is superb, the garden reflects the owners’ love for this beautiful home. The personal touches from our host from when we arrived were lovely. Lots of activities available: cycling, table football, darts, table tennis, fitness room, etc. 3 different areas to eat outside depending on the weather. After a week of relaxation, unfortunately it’s time to leave…

We rented Villa Rudel for a month to belatedly celebrate my husband’s birthday with different family members and friends joining us over the 4 week period. The villa was superb even better than the photos on the website. Light airy spacious and really well equipped with high standard of appliances. The grounds are extensive and peaceful we really enjoyed our Boules, table football and tennis matches but best surprise was viewing the visiting wildlife from the bench up behind the boules pitch watching the family of otters, deer and hares. It was a truly special place and holiday

Villa Rudel was amazing. Definitely to be recommended to family and friends. It was so much more than we were expecting. The house felt airy and had a modern fit-out but still within a beautiful French rustic house and gardens/surroundings. The host Juilet has put together a beautiful space and thought of every detail. We also ordered a dinner (from local chef Elizabeth) for our arrival which was a not only delicious but a god send as we ending up arriving late. It was all ready for us to heat up and dig in. All in all holiday perfection!

Villa Rudel is a very special place and we completely enjoyed our stay there. The property is beautiful and the house is very well equipped. The size of the home suites two families of 4 perfectly, with each room having its own bathroom. The youngest boys particularly loved the loft room. The adults thought the kitchen was really fabulous. The pool and surrounding gardens are gorgous. We quite enjoyed many fun onsite activities such as petanque, soccer, darts, and table tennis. In addition, the gym and laundry facilities were particularly handy. Someday we hope to go back.

We have stayed in many holiday homes in France and Villa Rudel is by far the best. The appearance and quality of the accommodation is superb: the spaciousness of the house and its grounds; the comfort and style of the furniture and the extensive range of additional facilities - it is impossible to find fault with this gorgeous house and all it offers. We made full use of the pool, games and the beautiful grounds and setting - interspersed with trips to stunning towns nearby. The owners instantly responded to any queries we had and helped to make it wonderful, relaxing family holiday.

Villa Rudel is a beautiful converted house in an idyllic setting. The owners Mike & Juliet think about every detail (eg mosquito plugs, washing powder). There are 2 outside terraces for different times of the day (one covered). The pool is fabulous with steps for younger/older people with very comfortable loungers and a covered seated area with sofas - great for taking refuge from the midday sun, reading, relaxing. The house is extremely well equipped, great for cooking. Very highly recommended!

Villa Rudel is a terrific spot. A beautiful house with fabulous grounds, it is really nicely kitted out and extremely well kept. Everything is considered and catered for. The outdoor seating areas and the pool are perfect with a shady and sunny spot at all times during the day. The herb and kitchen garden a really nice bonus too. Lots of activities from picking tomatoes in the kitchen garden, going on a bike ride, table football, table tennis, Wii, a football net and plenty of bits and bobs for the babies too. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back (for the fifth time) next year.

We stayed at this wonderful holiday home for the 3rd year in a row. Nothing is too much trouble for the owners and we enjoyed all the extras including a welcome pack with delicious strawberry jam from the garden, use of the bicycles including a childs bike, games of darts and table tennis in the downstairs area in the evenings and leisurely afternoons in the pool. Another highlight was seeing the Tour De France going through nearby Tonnac. Villa is immaculate with beautiful grounds and lots of areas outdoors to sit out depending on the time of day. Would highly recommend.

We had a lovely family holiday here with our 18 month old daughter. We loved the generous size (and that everyone had an ensuite!) and the wonderfully landscaped gardens. The hosts provided a cot, booster seat and stair-gates and the swimming pool was behind a gate and up some steps so we found it very baby-friendly. The gamesroom (and good wifi) kept us busy on the single rainy day. We really appreciated the effort the hosts went to provide us with a welcome basket (and stocked fridge) as well as guides and recommendations to the lovely towns nearby. We look forward to our return trip!

Fantastic house - the best house we have visited in 25 years visiting France! Sympathetically refurbished. We loved the spaces inside and outside the house - the different areas to sit outside, providing shade when needed were perfect. Fabulous pool and gazebo, lovely terraced landscaping. We were a party of 3 generations and everyone was very happy. The most striking aspect is the thoughtfulness of the hosts - from the welcome pack to the mosquito plugs to basic kitchen supplies. Idyllic - already planning our next visit!

A great house, tastefully furnished, brilliantly equipped (good kitchen and bathrooms) and in a beautiful location. Fantastic outside space and pool area with masses of seating, a choice of shaded or sun-soaked eating locations and plenty of games/activities to keep three generations busy. Stunning countryside and few tourists when we visited, although local towns and villages still buzzing. Fab location for a relaxing family holiday.

Villa Rudel was just delightful, we visited with our daughter, husband & our teenage grandchildren , we loved the area , the villa was perfect catering for everyone needs quite a tough ask we so many differing age groups, we had a very happy & relaxing time & loved the swimming pool area where we spent a good deal of our time. We hope to return.
