About this property

Farmhouse With Private Heated Pool (June to Sept)

The House is believed to have been a Farm house built in the late 19th century by a local vineyard owner. Divided into two residences for over a hundred years the history of the house can be seen in the new beams in part of the lounge and the lack of a handrail for the staircase. Local history says that the vineyard owner who had the house built to his specification never completed the house (and staircase) because he lost all his money in the phylloxera epidemic which destroyed most of the vineyards in France. The history of the house is still seen in its name which means 'beautiful well' and reflects the tiny well in the grounds and is the name of a Bordeaux wine for which the region is famous together with its other celebrated drink - Cognac.The house itself is spacious and airy and would suit a group holiday as there are 3 living areas and four double bedrooms with four bathrooms including a bath and 2 showers. The house is well equipped and is a safe environment for young children with its enclosed gardens,incorporating a private heated pool. Tucked away in the corner of a quiet village, the house and grounds provide privacy and relaxation in this beautiful part of the French countryside.

Lovely peaceful traditional property with modern amenities

Lovely traditional property with modern amenities with a good size pool. Very peaceful rural location. Excellent communication from the owners of the property and Mr and Mrs Keys, the property managers, were extremely helpful and accommodating. You will need a car to access supermarkets/sight seeing etc. but there are lots of beautiful areas to see. Cognac is beautiful and reasonably close. There is a summer festival there that takes place but you do have to pre book tickets online but it sounded sizeable with live music etc. La Rochelle, about an hour or so away, is also beautiful and has lots of lovely seafood restaurants along the front.

Super maison de vacances en Charente

Nous avons passé un super séjour entre amis dans la campagne charentaise. La maison est très spacieuse et idéale pour des vacances avec une piscine très agréable pendant la chaleur du mois d’août. Les échanges avec les hôtes étaient très fluides et l’accueil de Madonna et de son mari supers ! A savoir, la voisine n’apprécie pas le bruit en extérieur passé une certaine heure le soir

Bon séjour

Nous avons passé un agréable séjour, plus particulièrement grâce aux extérieurs magnifiques de la propriété. Il est dommage que la maisons sente l'humidité et que la terrasse nous offre quelques remontées de fosse sceptique... sinon cela aurait été parfait.

Home from home-great place to stay

We had a great holiday -the house is lovely and feels like 'home from home ' it has all you need and more to have an enjoyable holiday. It is well equipped with very comfortable beds. Outside there is a lovely heated pool and plenty of place to relax in plus there is a BBQ and eating area too. The village is quiet and very well placed to explore the local area. We would highly recommend

Super Séjour en Charente Maritime - Repos - Visites - Soleil - Mer

Thank you to Mr. and Mrs. Plews for their vacation home. The pool was very popular with the whole family. The house is very large and lovely decorated. The place is very quiet and we enjoyed the breakfasts in the morning and dinners at night outside. Thanks also to M and Mrs Keys for their welcome, their advice and their availability. Our vacation was great. The main centers of interest are 1 hour driving from the rental (La Rochelle, Ile d'Oleron, Royan, La Palmyre, Marais Poitevin, Angouleme, Rochefort). We strongly recommend this rental for a nice holiday in this region. Many thanks.

vacances au top

Super maison, super environnement, super accueil, nous avons été vraiment enchantés par cette merveilleuse propriété et la confiance du propriétaire qui met à disposition de nombreux équipements, merci beaucoup à Chris . (les seuls bémols étaient le frigo/cong, un peu sous-dimensionné pour 8 personnes en été et la voisine un peu grognon :-)))
