We hand a nice stay at La Chaumière Vauban. As noted, it has a beautiful view and was a spacious home. Positives: Easy access to coastal walks; a good kitchen for cooking (we cooked all four of our nights); it had shampoo and body wash in each shower; our daughter loved the kids room with with two bunk beds; Marie is very responsive by WhatsApp.Nice touches: Marie put out a kids coloring book and markers, and she left some local treats to enjoy.Oddities: Very low door to master from dining room (hit our heads about once a day - my head still aches from this); tight maneuvering to park car on property (Marie insists on meeting, which is likely related to this).Negatives: Lack of comfortable outdoor seating facing sea view (outside of standing, we didn’t have a place to sit and enjoy the nice view); ants (it was spring time); lack of sharp knives for cooking; lack of lighting in master bedroom (room felt sparse).Things to remember for next time: No conditioner; host only provided one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, one paper towel roll, and two trash bags (this would have been nice to know in advance for shopping purposes).
