Vicq-sur-Gartempe cottages

This time of year we take our dog to Devon but decided to try France as a lot of the cottages had private pools Lovely area to explore with a dog and a village within a good walk to get fresh bread Not the biggest range of restaurants or supermarkets but adequate and the restaurants we did find were good

This is a fantastic gite for total relaxation. It’s spacious, clean and well equipped. Our hosts, Sarah and Steve, were so welcoming, and nearby if needed. Our favourite part was the pool. It’s beautifully maintained and the solar cover very efficient so even on cooler days the water is warm. The view of sunflower fields was the cherry on the cake. Thank you Sarah and Steve!

A lovely stay in this spacious and peaceful property. Perfect location. Excellent hostess. So much to see and do in the local area. Fab!

The Haven in Bossay-sur-Claise is a simply charming stone cottage, perfectly situated being surrounded by sweeping fields. The atmosphere in and around the property is rustic yet very comfortable. The furnishings make us feel right at home and the kitchen is well equipped for creating anything your to heart’s desire from the fabulous local French markets. The garden is spacious and delightful with a small pond at its center. There are many quaint villages within easy reach, with plenty to see and do for those who are more adventurous. Yet for those who want to just steep in the quaint French countryside, it is a little slice of heaven. Even more so, the owners are a delight to work with and very accommodating. As you may guess from our review, we give it 5 of 5 stars. We absolutely we love being there and are looking forward to our next visit.

Very well equipped, large gite, with extensive grounds. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Lovely area with lots of lakes with hides and good variety of bird and insect life. Very pleasant owners.

We were there to attend some local events near Chatellerault so the location was very convenient for us. The gite had everything we needed and we made good use of the garden and bbq. It is a scenic, quiet area with some nice walks and interesting local towns and villages.
