Beautifully Converted Hay Barn

Le Studio is a comfortable little flat with a small ground floor yard and a first floor terrace, both with table and chairs and both look out onto fields. We ate almost every meal outside. It was great to have the bikes available - ideal for exploring the surrounding area, including Aulnay with its romanesque church and Dampierre with its chateau and sculpture garden. Further afield, La Rochelle, Cognac and the Marais Poitevin ("Green Venice") are all good day trips within about an hour's drive away. Trevor and Wendy were great hosts and we thoroughly enjoyed our week there.

We spent a week here. The reception from the owners was very warm and welcoming. There is plenty of advice if you need it. The area is very quiet but with good access to the coast and some interesting places. Great area for cycling. The gite is lovely and has all that you need. Lovely shower!!! Great to eat breakfast in the sun either on the terrace or the little garden.

This is a pretty rustic French cottage, nicely done . We stayed in late October and it was warm and cosy with lovely welcoming log fire on arrival. Everything was well laid out and comfortable.

Lovely quiet gite in the middle of the countryside. It is well equipped including the use of a gas BBQ and bikes. It was very clean and Wendy and Trevor were excellent, welcoming hosts. The gite is a short bike ride away from the excellent local pool and the donkey sanctuary and Venice vert are also not far. I would definitely recommend this place is you fancy getting away from it all.

We enjoyed a very pleasant extended stay at Le Studio while buying a property in France. The Studio is well-equipped and cosy with good access to local shops and amenities. It

is situated in a small hamlet in beautiful countryside and is very peaceful; we were delighted to hear the nightingale singing on several occasions and to watch the swallows with their young. There are plenty of nearby tracks for walking and cycling while the beautiful towns of Saintes and La Rochelle are within easy striking distance.

The owners,Trevor and Wendy who live next-door, are extremely friendly and helpful; nothing is too much and they have a wealth of knowledge about local attractions and facilities.

We recommend Le Studio for anyone seeking peace and relaxation.
