Vacances entre amis
Nous avons passé un agréable séjour entre amis. La maison est très grande, bien aménagé avec différents espaces ou l’on peut se reposer au calme. Nous étions 4 couples avec enfants. Beaucoup de jeux d’intérieurs et d’extérieurs sont prévus pour les enfants . La piscine est également très agréable avec un plongeoir pour la plus grande joie des enfants. Il y a un grand jardin très bien entretenu! Nous recommandons vivement cette location.

Lovely house
We enjoyed in a group of 10 friends our stay at this lovely house located in a peaceful region. The garden and large poolarea are beautiful, the kitchen is well equipped, the rooms are unique and well-spaced. The owners set great value on detail. We couldn't have wished for more. The house offers tabletennis, a field for boule, bicycles, TVs, two refrigerators, a washing machine and many more things for your comfort. Moreover the host Antonia answered every question very friendly and quickly. We recommend the house strongly!

Pool, Plums and Plancha!
On arrival we were amazed to find the house and gardens were so much more than we had expected. It certainly had the 'Wow' effect when we looked around it for the first time. We soon settled in and a week went by far too quickly. Most of our time was spent enjoying the lovely pool and gardens, picking delicious ripe plums from the trees, cooking evening meals on the Plancha and eating outside at the large table. We made use of the bikes, the various games and all that the house offered. The owners have thought of everything which gives the house a very comfortable feel. We all visited the Grotte de Villars and Brantome which made a very enjoyable outing. We would certainly recommend the house to friends.

Séjour de rêve à Beaulieu !
A l'occasion du mariage d'une de nos petites filles, nous avons passé des journées familiales de rêve dans la belle demeure d'Antonia et Jon. Chacun garde un souvenir inoubliable de la maison confortable, des repas interminables à l'ombre des parasols et des baignades dans la piscine ! Un immense merci d'avoir rendu cela possible.

Nous avons passé un super week-end dans cette grande maison où rien ne manquait. Nous y avons fêté le nouvel an. Plusieurs chambres se situent à l'ecart de la piece de vie, très pratique pour que les enfants dorment au calme. Piece de vie magnifique, plusieurs cuisines et salons.

Beautiful relaxing stay
The beautifully renovated property is in a great location if you're looking for a quiet stay, the grounds are stunning and the large patio and pool are great additions. The owners supplied everything we could have needed, garden and board games, kitchen equipment and basic cooking ingredients. Hair driers, blankets, even a first aid kit. This all made our stay even more comfortable. The house is very spacious, even with 12 of us staying, it wasn't crowded, there are enough communal spaces for everyone to gather together or branch off if wanted. The owners were very responsive before, during and after our stay with our questions and requests for recommendations. The only slight negative we found, which is in no way a reflection of the owners. The flies, wasps and hornets were a nuisance during our stay in mid August The addition of some wasps traps would have been great. Obviously their presence can not be helped by the owners.

Week-end entre amis
Nous avons passé un très bon séjour qui nous a permis de profiter des premiers beaux jours. Nous avons pu profiter de la piscine chauffée et jouer à la pétanque sur le terrain. La maison et l'extérieur ont beaucoup de cachet. La maison est très grande et permet à chacun d'avoir son espace. De plus elle est très bien équipée et il est très agréable d'y cuisiner. Seule petite remarque sur les lits/matelas que nous avons trouvé un peu mous :)

Tout simplement idyllique !
Nous avons réservé la maison pour un week-end prolongé entre amis/famille dont 5 enfants. Tout était parfait ! La maison est immense avec plusieurs salons et même si nous étions nombreux, jamais nous n'avons eu l'impression d'être à l'étroit. La maison est parfaitement meublée/équipée/ décorée ( famille d'artistes ?). L'environnement est superbe : aucun vis à vis, vue sur la campagne environnante. La terrasse, le jardin, la piscine : tous les extérieurs sont très bien entretenus. La piscine ( chauffée) a été un vrai plus car la météo a été très clémente et nous nous sommes baignés tous les jours. Nous sommes repartis enchantés avec pour seule idée en tête : relouer la maison l'année prochaine

Grandpa, this is a dream house says my 12 year old granddaughter the moment we entered the property.
We had a 8 person family event in the property during the last week of school holidays. As the title explains my granddaughter loved it. Endless days in the pool, playing and lazying around. It was very warm, 34C even, so we alternated hours outside with hours inside the house, which is surprisingly cool. There is mention of airconditioning on the website, but it are actually overhead fans and floorstand fans. The house is extensively equipped with everything, from the kitchen to pool toys and other kids toys for the garden. We had a lovely time, thank you Antonia for pre stay guidance.

Wonderful Family Holiday Home
A wonderfully spacious holiday home. Lovely and clean. The support we got from the owners was fantastic and the check in process was very easy. The pool area was lovely, the pool is deep very quickly, No shallow area for small ones but it worked well for us. Lots of open garden for the kids and views of the friendly cows. The kitchens were very well equipped and had everything we needed, lots of options for places to eat in the house with a big crowd. The rooms were all spacious and comfortable. The weather wasn’t amazing for our week so we spent a bit of time out of the house looking for villages and towns to explore and there didn’t seem to be many in close proximity but we found a few interesting places. Overall probably the nicest house we have stayed in in France over the years.

Zomervakantie met vrienden
Met een groep van 8 volwassenen en 7 kinderen zijn we voor 14 dagen in het huis verbleven. Een ideale locatie voor zo'n gezelschap. Voldoende kamers, badkamers, binnen- en buitenruimtes om te verdelen / verblijven. Een zeer mooi authentiek huis en charmant ingericht. Voldoende eet- en kookgerei aanwezig. De foto's op de website tonen naar onze mening zelfs nog niet voldoende de prachtige ligging. Een immense tuin met zicht op een rustige glooiende koeien wei. In ons geval een klein nadeel was het gebrek aan schaduw op het terrein. Bij temperaturen van 35-40°C is dat essentieel. Wij waren daarom verplicht aan / rond het zwembad te blijven. Een petanque of kubb was daarom pas mogelijk in de late namiddag/avond. Maar misschien zijn zulke temperaturen abnormaal in die regio. Verder zijn de huiseigenaars gemakkelijk te contacteren via de website en voorzien je steeds van een duidelijk en vriendelijk antwoord!

Everything you need for a family holiday
We had a wonderful holiday with friends and family at this beautiful house. We were three families holidaying together and yet we still had lots of space to play and catch up. The garden is perfect for children to run around and play and the parents enjoyed a drink every evening in a different little area around the garden. The pool area is perfect for enjoying and afternoon altogether. The kitchen is well equipped and we ate outside at the big table for most meals. The house is clean and comfortable. I’d definitely recommend staying here as it has everything you need for the perfect holiday.

About the host

Hosted by Mr and Mrs Graham

Host profile image
We are a family of five who having enjoyed many French holidays with family and friends, decided in 2004 to buy a holiday home we could share with others. The property needed extensive renovation and now offers a heated, saline pool, large garden, comfortable and spacious accommodation and everything we feel is important to make for the perfect holiday retreat.

Why they chose this property

We know and have loved the Charente for many years. Our hamlet is one of the highest points in the Charente, so the air is clear and views over surrounding woodlands are lovely.
The property is an old stone farmhouse with two barns and not only offers abounding space but also lots of character.

What makes this property unique

Large boules/pétanque pitch and a deep pool with diving board, both offer hours of fun!
