The house is small but very comfortable and relatively cool even in very hot weather. It is very well equiped with cooking materials and tableware of good quality. The hosts are generous and welcoming, and have clearly thought about ensuring that their renters will have all that is necessary for a pleasant stay. The location is quiet, near the beach, and not far from "downtown" L'Epine, though commerce and restaurants are very limited there. (There is an excellent bakery, a mediocre butchery, a small convenience store, and the restaurants are not very good.) And L'Epine is poorly served by public transportation. (One navette every hour and half until the service stops at 8 - so forget about dinner out.) Therefore, a car is recommended. None of this concerns the house itself, of course, which is as close to perfection as we have ever found.
