A 3 bedroom-house and a big garden between the vineyards, the city of Nantes and the atlantic ocean
We live in a one-storey house in a residential area. We have a large garden with a swimming-pool in the countryside and not far from NANTES, 15 minutes by car or you can take a bus and then the tramway to go to the town centre.
Our home is composed of a kitchen, a dining room, a living-room, a nice veranda towards the garden, 3 bedrooms (2 double beds and one single bed), 2 toilets, 1 bathroom. There is also a double garage with 3 bicycles. We have a large garden and a heated pool.
We have two girls, Taïs is 16 and Célia is 23 soon. Célia does not travel with us any longer during summer time, we are likely to travel with one of Taïs's friend instead or another member of the family.
Our neighborhood is very quiet. We are non-smokers. We have a cat.
Our village (Le Bignon) is quiet and rather small, you will only need to walk 5 minutes for services like the greengrocer's, baker's or butcher's.
Bigger supermarkets or shopping centres are 10 minutes away by car.
Lots of places can be visited around, a car is needed though. You can easily reach the beautiful beaches on the atlantic coast, visit the city of Nantes and the vineyards around, visit the beautiful village of Clisson, and others... go to Brittany or to the attraction parks like the famous Puy du Fou (1h drive) and the Futuroscope (2h drive)...
Nantes airport is 15 minutes away by car.

SI50620We did three exchanges with Intervac and six more on the other platform and this home exchange was excellent. Carine and her family were very nice and always very helpful. Communication was easy and smooth. Their house is as described, nice, cozy and well equipped, one cannot wish more. Last but not least, we did not know the area very well and we were positively surprised. Highly recommended. Thank you once again Carine!
