A truly relaxing and memorable family holiday; thoughtful hospitality at its best!

We had a fantastic holiday and would highly recommend Artagnan. The setting was wonderfully peaceful and relaxing, making it the perfect place to unwind. The owners (Tim & Razia) were exceptional and had genuinely thought of everything, from offering a pre-arrival shopping service and welcome drinks to providing spare plug adaptors. There were endless activities for the children, ranging from outdoor play equipment, bikes & karts, to exploring the grounds and seeing the animals, to toys, books & puzzles. The childcare sessions were particularly impressive – thoughtfully planned and delivered with real enthusiasm, care and affection for the children. It was clear how much attention had gone into creating a special experience for guests. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to return

As Mary Poppins would say “practically perfect in every way” Thank you for a wonderful holiday. We could not have asked for more

Many thanks to you both for making this visit so wonderful in every way. You have been the perfect “neighbours” and so very kind and generous with all your time. Xanthe has had the BEST TIME!! And we have too! Love the house and all the equipment

We’ve had a lovely holiday and it was a dream for Xanthe to have so much space to run around in! We haven’t had to lift a finger so thank you for putting out so many toys and the paddling pools for her each day

What you have set up here is utterly amazing . You should be so proud for creating these amazing and wonderful opportunities for families

More of a pilgrimage than a holiday. You have made it all so magical for us and the children. We want to thank you for the best week ever and pray we can return next summer.

Another beautiful and relaxing holiday we have all had a fantastic time. Thank you so much for all the fun and joy you bring through the children and for us time to recharge. You both are always so helpful and kind. Thank you

Another truly wonderful fortnight. We have all properly relaxed, the kids have loved every minute of their time with Tim and Razia and we are in awe of all the fun games you play with them. Thanks for your hospitality, with love from all of us xxx

Thank you so much Razia & Tim for another wonderful holiday. Yvie-Rose & Harrison have loved coming over and all the wonderful activities you have done with them, they will miss you a lot. Jason and I have loved our time here and enjoyed our much needed rest. You are both so kind, generous and thoughtful, we are so very grateful. Thank you again. With love from us all xxx

Thank you for yet another lovely holiday. We’ve all had the loveliest time. The children have loved all the fab activities – all thought out and appealing to each one. Thank you for being such attentive hosts. It’s been another really restful holiday – hard to say with 3 children but it has been that restful. We hope to come back next summer.

What a wonderful holiday. Thank you so much for looking after us all so well. The house, the setting, all the recommendations and of course the brilliant childcare each morning .. it is all so considered and perfect. We are all so sad to leave and hope to return x

Another lovely holiday at Artagnan. It was restful which I didn’t think was possible with three children of five and under. Tim and Razia were so helpful, the children adored spending time with them. The pool and house were so lovely, so well equipped, we loved it and will be back next year- thank you for such a restful break

What a perfect place for a real holiday for young and old. Granny had a truly memorable 75th birthday thanks to Razia and the sous-chefs. Everything in the house is perfectly chosen and we all appreciated the beautifully thought out care for the young folk, plus the opportunity for Townies to meet chickens, sheep & fish and tractors. Thank you

This was our third visit to Artagnan and was as amazing as ever. Tim & Razia are brilliant hosts, the children adore them and we all leave feeling completely relaxed and recharged.

We have recently returned home from a simply superb two week stay at Artagnan in late August. 

 The house is spacious and extremely well equipped – there appears to be (often two of) everything parents will need while away with the kids and there are plenty of toys, games, books and ride-ons for the little ones as well as the private pool and play park.  

The owners Tim and Razia were incredibly helpful and thoughtful during our stay and really went above and beyond to ensure our holiday was as enjoyable, comfortable and stress-free as possible. Our children (9 and 5) looked forward to spending time with them most days, when they would look after the animals, play games, spot insects and other wildlife, or cook up something tasty in the kitchen.  We also made the most of the two local chefs (one targeted at vegetarians and the other providing more traditional French cuisine) who delivered to the house.  The food was delicious and this took the hassle out of meal times.  

My wife said it was the most relaxing holiday she has ever had and we are already talking about returning.  I could not recommend Artagnan enough to anyone with a young family, who is looking for a relaxing holiday in beautiful surroundings.

Top tip – look out for the incredible sunrises which can best be viewed by the pool early in the morning (hot chocolate and croissants optional), or enjoy some stargazing with the naked eye at night.  You and your children will never forget it!

Thank you so much Tim & Razia for an amazing two weeks at Artagnan. The children have loved their time with you and Jason and I haven’t felt this relaxed in years! We are so grateful for your kindness, generosity and thoughtfulness. We will always remember this special holiday at Artagnan, thank you so much.

We had an absolutely lovely week and can’t wait until next time! Thank you so much. Everything was there to make an incredibly relaxing time and the kids loved their playdates!

What a relaxing holiday. We have loved our week here, Ella & Theo have loved feeding the animals, playing thieves, painting, finding fish & lizards – thank you for all your kindness and you are both such attentive hosts. We will be back. Thank you for everything xxxx

So grateful for this lovely special time again, a most magnificent and restful fortnight filled with such kindness and care from you all. Enormous thanks for everything you do to help us relax and enjoy family time and make such special memories x
