About this property

Rural Gîtes & Private Pool : Countryside retreat for 4 adults

Fancy a break in the heart of rural Charente? Staying on an old farmstead, surrounded by nothing but farms, fields, vines and trees. In a sleepy commune of only 100 residents, a peaceful and tranquil holiday is assured.
Les Chagnasses has two four-star rated Gîtes available to rent, sleeping maximum four adults.

The Stables Gîte is a spacious two room Gîte with everything you need for the perfect holiday. Your kitchen area is fully equipped with a cooker, hob, microwave, fridge and dishwasher. Your lounge area has a large Chesterfield sofa, Smart TV, breakfast bar, dining table and pellet burner. Your bedroom has a king size four poster bed, wardrobe and drawers, plus silent fan. There's also an ensuite shower room with washing machine, WC and towel dryer.

The Pigeonnier Gîte is a self-contained, all in one holiday home. You have a large living area with king size four poster bed, wardrobes and drawers, comfy Chesterfield sofa, Smart TV, dining table and pellet burner. You have a separate kitchenette with fridge, microwave, coffee machine and small hob. Next door you have a shower room with washing machine, WC and towel dryer.

On site, you have a private swimming pool, with summer lounge, terrace and lawns. We encourage you to use the lounge as an extension of your Gîte. There’s a comfy sofa, picnic table, fridge freezer, microwave, coffee machine, Internet radio/CD player, books, jigsaws and board games. Take your lunch and your towels, and enjoy a day by the pool.

You also have your own private grounds with a selection of picnic tables, benches, chairs and BBQ for lazy alfresco dining.
There's darts, baby-foot and boules to keep you entertained, plus a projector and big screen for streaming your films.

Your hosts, Mike & Claire, live in the old farmhouse. We're close by if you need us, always happy to help, but the host and guest areas have been carefully divided, and you may well feel that you are completely on your own!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Vacation in style

We had an amazing holiday at Les Chagnasses Rural Gites. This year we searched for a quiet and peaceful holiday and we got everything we wanted. It is a realy peaceful place and everything was clean, taken good care off and there is so much to do. The eye for detail that the owners have is absolutely amazing and lifts the experience up even more. We can only recommend it! Thank you for the peace and help.

Les Chagnasses

A wonderful relaxing rural location with exceptional facilities. Could not have been better. Mike and Claire were welcoming, helpful and unintrusive. I don’t usually do reviews but make exceptions when merited as is very much the case with Les Chagnasses.

Blissful

We were looking for peace and quiet and Les Chagnasses was the perfect place for this - we loved everything about it. The accommodation was beautiful and had everything we needed to cater for ourselves and sleep really well. Mike and Claire have thought of everything and made this a really special place. We had a heat wave during our stay, but there were so many places to sit in the shade (or the sun) that we were perfectly comfortable. The pool is lovely and the view from there is gorgeous, the wood behind the stables is a beautiful place to relax and feel at one with nature. We loved having our own bar and pool house and enjoyed meeting the hens and listening to their chatter. A magical place.

Calme sérénité

Gîte exceptionnel pour un couple qui veut profiter à tout moment d être en tête à tête. Endroit vraiment bien conçu pour que l’on se sente à l’aise, dans un cadre idyllique. Claire et Mike sont disponibles mais très très discrets. Un plus non négligeable : leur panier d’accueil plus que généreux et attentionné pour le commencement de très belles vacances.

About the host

Hosted by Mike Chamberlin

Host profile image
Mike & Claire have escaped to the country, and bought an old farmstead in rural France. We love the peace and quiet of our small commune in the Charente. Surrounded by nature. We enjoy sharing our small patch of French countryside with like-minded lovers of nature.

Why they chose this property

We have taken time to tastefully restore the old stable block into a beautiful two room Gîte, and the old Pigeonnier into a second Gîte. All surrounded by mature gardens and terraces with lovely countryside views.
Our house and garden have been carefully separated from the guest areas, so you will have complete privacy lazing by the pool,

What makes this property unique

Both our Gîtes offer you a four-star home from home, where privacy and peace is assured.
Your summer lounge is an added bonus, offering you extra space by the pool, with captivating countryside views.
Your private gardens have benches and picnic tables and BBQ's to enjoy alfresco meals and more amazing views.
We have boules, darts and baby-foot, plus board games, books and CD's to keep you entertained. And a large scree with projector for streaming your favourite films.
