Child Friendly and Toddler Friendly, Family Gite Holiday in south west France
|
We have 2 young children and we have also been letting out our holiday cottages to families with
toddlers and children here since 1996, Wendy is a registered child minder; so we have some experience
of what children of all ages enjoy and what makes their parents holidays enjoyable too. Its usually the
case that if the children are happy then the parents are too.
Our large enclosed garden has a sandpit and swings including a slide and baby
swing. These are set on an impact absorbing wood chip surface (just in case).
There is plenty of space to play boules or ball. The garden and sandpit are directly
opposite ruche and horloge cottages and within view of papillon and grenier. Our
Pirate Ship is the star attraction and great for climbing. There are numerous large
trees around the garden creating plenty of shade and also lots of super hiding places.
Our swimming pool is completely enclosed by a 1m80 high fence and wall and is accessed by one gate
which is self closing and has a child proof latch. It is also alarmed for extra security. It is not heated but in
summer time easily gets up to 26 - 28 c and even younger children will happily swim / play in it. The older
children will be hard to get out of it. We also have our Toddler splash pool, an above ground HEATED (to 30c)
pool, perfect for young children, toddlers and babies an also ideal in the low season. We have a small paddling
pool for the toddlers to use in the garden for water fun when mum and dad don't feel like a swim. There is also
a number of trees around the area which also provide shade in different areas at different times of day.
'Our children were able to run, swim and play by themselves and with other guests children in safety which allowed us to relax that little more on our family holiday.'

What do we mean by Child Friendly and Family Friendly gite holiday ? Well, for a start we welcome families with
young children. That means that there will be other like minded families with children, all wanting an enjoyable relaxing
stay where there are other children for theirs to play with. If your children are entertained then it usually means you'll
be able to relax that bit more.
What else ? We have travel cots, highchairs and stairgates available, we have other items such as potty, child toilet seat,
booster seats, toddler steps, bed guards, baby rockers, steam sterilisers all free of charge. The Enclosed garden has
swings, slide and sand pit, PIRATE SHIP and TRAMPOLINE, brilliant for climbing. The swimming pool area is
completely enclosed from the gites and garden and accessed through a self closing gate with child proof latch (stops
access by children age 5yrs and under) complete with heated toddler pool. And don't forget we can also offer our
'babysitting service' so you can enjoy a night out or our day time mini creche service. What else do you need to make
