    Dear Lee and Jennifer,
    Thank you for the great time we had in your villa. We especially enjoyed cooling down in the swimming pool. The region was beautiful and there were lots of things to do nearby. The town of Abueterre was beautiful. We also loved cooling down in the sea at Lacanau beach. The bakery, Lauseille Didier, provided us with delicious croissants and baguettes every day.

    Thank you so much for making this an unforgettable holiday for us!
    Greetings from Holland…
