Great gite and facilities in lovely location
This was our second stay in the ground floor gite. The gite itself is spotless and spacious and in a beautifully restored outbuilding. The grounds are very well maintained and good for relaxing in and eating outside. They are especially good for children with a trampoline, swings and play centre. The pool is a big hit and the roof cover helps keep the pool clean and at a good temperature. Kelly and Ian are lovely hosts and their three children Martha, Josie and Archie were fun playmates for our daughter and made her stay particularly memorable. She was very sad to leave. There is lots in the area to see and do within the Cognac area and the beaches, zoo and other areas of interest are within easy traveling distance for day trips. We have had lovely holidays here and very much look forward to returning.

Thank you so much, we enjoyed have you stay with us again and looking forward to see you all again soon.
Nous avons passé de magnifiques vacances dans ce domaine. Des espaces verts, des jeux, des coins plus cosy nous ont permis de trouver notre bonheur. Le tout à proximité des vignes parfaites pour petite ballade en vélo ou à pieds.
Tout est fait pour se sentir comme à la maison, parents comme enfants. La propreté était de rigueur et en cette période c'est parfait. Les propriétaires sont très discrets. L'endroit est très joli.
The host is very nice and helpfull. Their thouthers were nice playmates for our baby :) The house is beautiful renovated and with a nice spaceaous garden and pool. If you look for relaxation this is your place.
Beautiful property set in idyllic location, can’t recommend this property enough. If you want to relax and do nothing or get out and about exploring France it’s great.. Gite was excellent, spotlessly clean and everything we needed. Pool and garden areas very well looked after. Kelly and Ian were great hosts, around when needed, would most definitely recommend and will be returning again.
Gîte charmant, spacieux, très beau, très propre , très bien équipé . Parc , piscine , barbecue très bien entretenus , propriété avec beaucoup de cachet.
Attention pas beaucoup de débit WIFI si cela vous est indispensable.
Nous recommandons vivement ce gîte

Beautiful gîte in the Charente countryside
Had a lovely week long stay in this beautiful gîte, perfectly suited for wheelchair/scooter users too. Plenty of room to move about. Very comfortable and spotlessly clean. Kelly , Ian and the family were all very welcoming and friendly, helping out with places to eat etc. Quiet and peaceful with plenty of things to do and see in the surrounding area or just relax in the sun by the lovely pool. Would highly recommend and would definitely go back.

Thank you. It was an absolute pleasure having you stay and we look forward to seeing you again soon. x
Very warm welcome at arrival. Very clean and cosy and completely equiped flat in a well maintained house on the country site. Not long drive to the sea, but the own salt water pool in the lovely environment within a giant garden provides total tranquility already. We very much enjoyed our stay and are looking forward to the next one.
We had a lovely week in this beautiful location & well kept gite. Very peaceful village in a great location with lots of things to do in the surrounding area. We had lots of trips to the beaches, which are beautiful. Property was great for us with our 1 year old with very well equipped property , we particularly loved the personal touches of age appropriate toys along with the trampoline and climbing frame. Wonderful pool & toys too. Fantastic holiday - thanks!

On one word, gorgeous.
Fabulously friendly hosts, beautiful property. Everything parents of a 5 year old could possibly want. Good base for exploring cognac. A beautiful part of France. Kelly and Ian were very welcoming, and had loads of very useful suggestions of where to go. The gite was spacious, well equipped, clean and well maintained.

A beautiful and spacious gite, spotlessly clean with everything we needed for a fantastic stay.
We enjoyed a lovely week. Cognac, the beach at Royan and La Rochelle were or favourite days out. The pool and gardens were brilliant with plenty of space to have fun and there was lovely walking around the vineyards from the gite. We will definitely be coming again.
Having just returned from two relaxing weeks staying with Ian, Kelly and the family I just wanted to say a massive thank you for your warm welcome, local knowledge and wonderful accommodation in a beautiful peaceful setting.
If you are reading this and wondering if this is the place for you, it is, trust me!

Outstanding
Quite simply the best gite we have ever taken, property is finished to the highest standard and a credit to the owners.The pool is lovely warm and scrupulously clean. The facilities are delightful. The owners are really friendly and helpful. Great for a rural getaway from it all, unhesitatingly recommended.

Great Family Gite in lovely setting.
This immaculately clean gite had a very well equipped kitchen and the rooms were spacious and very comfortable. Our children aged 5 and 8 had a fabulous time playing in the warm swimming pool, bouncing on the trampoline and climbing frame and lots of games for them to play with. There were plenty of places to visit in the area, the nearest town Cognac is worth a visit. However, we spent most of the time at the Gite as it was so nice to relax and have bbq's there and it was hard to drag our children away from the other children and pool. The owners were very helpful and recommended great days out, restaurants etc.

Quiet and luxurious piece of France
It was exactly as the pictures depict - a quiet, luxurious piece of France!
The accommodation was perfect - spacious and immaculate, perfect for all the family!
We were 2 families staying together in both gites - the accommodation and facilities suited us all perfectly. The hanger for socialising and eating was a great asset - also great for the table tennis championships we held! The pool was spotlessly clean - the cover proved very useful for protected swimming when the weather wasn't being kind! The barn deck was also a great space for the kids to call their own.
Plenty of parking too!
Nothing was too much trouble for Kelly and Ian - chatting to them and their lovely children about their lives in England and France was very interesting.
I highly recommend this holiday but a car is essential as there are limited things to do and see nearby!

Relaxing Retreat
My husband, 18 month old daughter and I had the most blissful 2 week stay with Kelly and Ian. Kelly's attention to detail and warm welcome from the whole family was just lovely, they made us feel perfectly at home.
The gite is beautifully finished and kitted out. We stayed on the ground floor which was perfect for our little one to roam in and out.
The swimming pool, garden with climbing frame was fabulous - an idyllic, quiet spot to spend a sunny day in blissful relaxation.
The surrounding area was so interesting to explore. We visited some wonderful places including Cognac, Rochefort, La Rochelle, Angoulemr, Ile d'Aix and Bordeaux.
We wouldn't hesitate to recommend to friends and family, a truly 5 star stay.
Jasmine, Chris and Ruby

Great holiday
We had an amazing holiday staying in the downstairs gite for the second time. The gites are lovely, comfortable and are well equipped. We ate out in the hangar most nights. We enjoyed days by the pool as well as exploring the local area. It's a great place to cycle with the family as the roads are quiet and flat with the bonus of views of sunflowers and vines. There is a wide range of places to explore further afield by car, such as the Cognac houses, climbing adventure park and local towns and museums as well as visits to the coast. Kelly, Ian and family couldn't have been more welcoming and we look forward to visiting again.
