We had a great week staying in your cottage in Jard sur mer. It is very clean and well equipped with everything you need. The large garage was very useful to store our bikes. The cottage is 2 minutes walk form the centre of town with shops and cafes. We enjoyed the excellent wine shop and the well stocked fruit and vegetable shop. Lots of great restaurants within walking distance, we loved Le Terasse Gourmand. The local beaches were lovely with great waves just a 15 minute walk away or a short drive further round the coast. We had a great time with our 2 teenage daughters and hope to return soon.Guest rating:
We have stayed at this property a number of times and still love comig back. It is home from home - everything you need for a relaxing holiday is provided. It is well equipped from brillo pads to fabric conditioners, beach umbrella to a set of beach boule. It provides spacious and comfortable living accommodation togther with a secluded suntrap garden and patio with table and chairs - just right for a relaxing meal and glass of wine. The lounge features flat screen tv (both Engl;ish and French reception) togther with blue ray DVD and WiFi. It is a two minute walk to the centre of a lovely and vibrant seaside town, with several patisseries, a butcher and fantatsic fresh vegetable shop. There is also an excellent supermarket 3 minutes drive away. There are a number of beautiful sandy beaches close by where you can swim, wind surf or just walk. There is a terrace bar not far from the house and a variety of very good restaurants close to the harbour and sea front about 15 minutes walk away. It is a very friendly and welcoming town and the perfect place to enjoy many wonderful holidays!Guest rating:
My friend and I stayed here at the start of October and were blessed with lovely autumn sunshine so were able to take full advantage of the the wonderful beaches in the area, as well as the garden. The house is very well equipped, with modern appliances, everything you might need in the kitchen, fast wi-fi and the ability to Bluetooth to the Hi-Fi. There are thoughtful touches, such as games, books about the area and wine so you can improve your knowledge before the trip to the supermarket to take some home! There is plenty of space in the house, with comfy beds and sofas, and plenty of storage space (including lots of hangers!) There is everything you need to enjoy the garden - plenty of seats, table, umbrella and BBQ, so you can relax with your book and listen to the locals playing boules over the wall. The house is an excellent base, situated in the centre of the town. If you don't want to get the car out again all holiday you don't need to as you are in walking distance of all essential holiday amenities, including boulangeries with amazing patisseries for holiday treats. There are plenty of restaurants providing everything from snacks to three course meals. We had a wonderful week and will definitely be back!Guest rating:
We have stayed in Jard Sur Mer before but this was the first time at this property. It had plenty of room for our family of four and would comfortably sleep 6. The house was clean and tidy when we arrived and has a bath, shower and separate WC . We received brilliant and comprehensive communication from the owner ahead of our stay. The house is situated within a 5 minute walk of one of the best Rotisseries, plenty of bakers, a great fruit and veg shop, a wine shop and plenty of lovely shops for gifts and 'holiday stuff'! The house and garden were like a home from home. The internet is very good, there is no TV but we didn't miss it. There are little bars and cafes nearby and a multitude of great restaurants (Kou De Ta, Transat and Le Canott - some of our favourites - however there are many more). There is a Pizza takeaway within walking distance of the property. We hardly used the car at all. The beaches are some of the best in the country. Again within a 10-15 minute walk depending on which one you go to. We will definitely book again at some point. It is a great place with everything you need in and around for a great holiday!Guest rating:
This property is clearly a family home as well as a rental. It is spacious, spotlessly clean, and extremely well equipped. Jard sur Mer itself is a lovely location - there are boulangeries, restaurants and bars within easy walking distance of the property. The small enclosed garden is a sun trap and lovely for meals outside. The weather when we stayed was extremely hot even by French standards so we didn’t use this space as much as we had intended. We would highly recommend this property. The only (very small) downside to the property - in the high temperatures that we had - was that a pool would have been a welcome addition.Guest rating:
Had a lovely stay here in the summer. The information suppllied beforehand was fantastic. The gite was clean and very well equipped and ideally located within walking distance to the town, harbour, shops and beaches. A great base to explore from if you want to get out, or everything on your doorstep if you don't!
Guest rating:
A lovely cottage, great location for Town centre, well equipped, and everything you could wish for, would highly recommendGuest rating:
Great accommodation situated only a short walk from the centre. Accommodation was immaculate when we arrived and had everything you'd need for a small family. Place itself was beautiful with everything from sandy beaches, great places to eat and things to do/see when the weather wasn't so good - managed to keep 2 four year olds and an 8 year old happy for the week! Totally recommend this property and the area as a whole, so much so will be coming back next year for more.....Guest rating:
Stayed here in August, very well equipped and comfortable property, close to the town and beaches, and has everything you would need for a great holiday. Lovely alfresco dining, very private yet close to everything perfectGuest rating:
Had a great time at this amazing villa. within walking distance of the town and a real sun trap. Martin could not have been more helpful and the villa had more than you would every expect, a real home from home. we will be back!Guest rating:
Great accommodation in a lovely seaside town. Excellent situation; very clean; really good resources/equipment in the house; nice size for a family of 4-6; private garden area. The owners are really helpful and provide fantastic information. We would definitely return here.Guest rating:
This comfortable gite has everything you could possibly want for a relaxing holiday. It is situated in a very good spot for the beach, shops and restaurants. Everything was spotlessly clean and in good working order. The owners have carefully considered what is needed in a holiday let and then provided it.Guest rating:
A lovely villa, very central to this lovely seaside area. The house had everything we needed to make our holiday easy and comfortable, plus we had the garage to store our bikes in. The house is next to a small gravel car park mainly used on market day (Monday) and also used by the local boule club but is very quiet and fun to watch them play. We have been to Jard sur mer six times so know the area well. This villa is close to the small town shopping street with its interesting shops bakeries and cafes, ten minutes walk from the beach and fifteen to the marina. There is lots to do in the area to suit everyone's taste. We are already booked up to return next year.Guest rating:
We stayed here this year and had a LOVELY holiday with Henry (14months), Grandma and Grandad. Would certainly recommend it to a family (or others!) looking for a well-maintained and perfectly catered-for property. Martin (owner) was extremely helpful with advice and constant information when we required it and helped us to feel that the house would be the perfect place for our 2week break - he wasn't wrong! Local and not-so-local area is lovely with great beaches (best one is La Mine which is cyclable) and interesting markets. Town is a stones throw and cycling is easy due to relative flatness of area. Enjoy!Guest rating:
An exceptionally well equipped property ideally located to local shops and the beach. Most suitable location for; cycling (5 different circuits plus a cycle path by the coast accessed from the Rue Jean Moulin), swimming of a safe lifeguard attended beach which also caters for sailing and surfacing. The property has save storage for the car and all sporting equipment in an independent locked garage and gated forecourt. No difficulty in recommending this very clean and tidy holiday rental for use by young families to older families interesting in outdoor activities, or indeed group individuals. There are also evening entertainment events at the port suitable for all ages. Tom LondonGuest rating:
This property offers excellent accommodation in this lovely French seaside town. The house is close to local shops in the town centre and a short walk from the port and beach. A large supermarket is a short drive away. The house contains everything necessary to enjoy a self-catering holiday. There is a walled garden at the back and a secure driveway at the front. The garden is south facing and enjoys the sun from morning until evening. Jard sur Mer is an ideal location for a family holiday and the house comes with a travelling cot and high chair. Jard has good access to Les Sables, Lucon and the vineyards at Rosnay. La Rochelle is about one hours drive away and well worth a visit. Jard itself is well supplied with restaurants and is very family friendly. The town often arranges entertainment at the Port on summer evenings. I have visited Jard a number of times over the last 20 years and the town has retained its charm throughout that time. I would highly recommend this property that allows one to enjoy fully a visit to the sunny beaches of the Vendee.Guest rating:
We had such a beautiful relaxing week in this very pretty seaside town. Group of four young professionals wanted a relaxing break away and this was just perfect! The house was an excellent standard with everything you would need and more provided. The house is located in easy proximity to the beach and is also a great base for discovering the beautiful Vendée region. Most definitely hope to return!
Guest rating:
The property was immaculately clean and the best equipped holiday home that we have rented in the twenty years of travelling to the Vendee. It has easy access to town and country and close to every type of beach you would need.
Guest rating:
The property is extremely well equipped, whatever you think you need is there. It is very clean, spacious and comfortable. when it is cold outside it is quick and easy to make cosy. There is plenty of room for everyone and for storing goods to bring home. It is an ideal gite.
We return to this gite every year since 2000 because it is so good, the owner is always extremely helpful and the beaches nearby are brilliant.
the property is within easy walking distance of the bakers, ideal for breakfast. the shops and restaurants in the surrounding area are excellent.
Guest rating:
Although we already knew the house and village well, this was the first time we have stayed there.
The property is beautifully maintained and prepared for visitors; although our party was only four strong (and a small dog), it is very fully equipped for six people in beds plus two large settees, with every mod con a large holiday party would ever need, from washing up machine to children's toys. The written instructions provided were comprehensive and easily understood and the local information left in the house was almost too compete!
The house is very well positioned close to the centre of the village with easy access to local shops and facilities and within easy walking distance of the beaches and port.
We and our friends throughly recommend a stay here in Jard sur Mer
Guest rating:
The property is clean, tidy and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The house is also well located for shops and beach.
Guest rating:
A comfortable, well equipped and well maintained house within a few hundred metres of the town centre and market place. This was the second time that we have stayed here and it will not be the last.
