Very clean and well equipped gite with an excellent host
We enjoyed a week here in August 2022 and had a great time. The kids absolutely loved playing in the pool, playing table football and other games in the games shed and playing on the trampoline (often with Nathalie's daughter). The pool is great and very private other than a short walk past the front of the main house to get to it. There are numerous toys and inflatables to play with, and the water was an ideal temperature (we were in the midst of a heat wave!) and it was very clean - Nathalie cleaned it daily. The gite itself is clean, spacious, modern and very well furnished/equipped. The wifi is very fast and there is plenty to entertain the children if you spend any time indoors (although we were hardly inside at all). There is no air conditioning so it was very warm at night, but we had unusually high temperatures between 35C and 40C every day. We made a point of keeping windows and shutters closed all day to keep the house cooler and a fan is provided. The location of the property is very rural - surrounded by farms and fields - mainly beautiful vineyards and sunflowers, some visible from the swimming pool area. There are plenty of very quiet roads to run/cycle, which makes it very peaceful, but does mean that you must have a car to get anywhere. The large town of Angouleme is a very easy 25 min drive away, and there are some other small towns/villages within 10-15 mins (e.g. Montmoreau) where you can find a large shop or supermarket. Nathalie was on hand whenever we needed anything, including tips and advice on places to visit etc. She is an excellent host. All in all we had a very relaxing week at Nathalie's gite, and would certainly return if we have a holiday in this part of France again.

Fantastic
Natalie was an amazing host, nothing was a problem for her. The gite had everything you could think of for a family. It was super clean and very peaceful. Her children were a delight so well mannered and the dogs were super friendly our children loved them, when they popped to say hello. Will definitely visit again if we stop in the area. Worth a visit

Wonderful escape to the French countryside
We've just returned home after the most wonderful family holiday - staying in the gite for 9 nights. iPads/screens were left in the UK and our 5 & 9 year old daughters rediscovered their love of playing outdoors together in the beautiful garden - with loads of activities for kids to enjoy (swings, sand pit, trampoline, slide, badminton etc) - and all enclosed so they could run around safely. We also went on some great local trips (most of which were recommended in the information pack in the gite or by the hosts) including to a vineyard (we were spoilt for choice - the gite is in Cognac region); to Cognac & Angouléme towns (the girls loved the land train, we loved the market, we all loved exploring the cobbled streets); we visited local chocolate shops and lots of beautiful rural villages for lunch (inc Châteauneuf) and the most amazing restaurant with seating in an old market place in the centre of a truly picturesque village (ville Bois-Lavalette - I think!). We took a longer trip to see a famous Chateau & village (around 40mins), Rochefoucauld, which was well worth the journey. We found the driving stress-free as the roads are so quiet. On the way to and from the port (St Malo) we stopped in La Rochelle, which I'd also recommend. It was much closer to the gite than the port but it's such a beautiful place to visit that we made this our stop off for both directions! One tip I'd share, as we were caught out in the first few days of our hol, is that most of the shops etc close for lunch (midday - 2pm) and completely on Sunday. We were completely out of sync with opening hours to begin with but we soon found our routine of going out in the morning (when everything's open), eating lunch out, then spending the afternoon/evenings at the gite - enjoying BBQs in the kitchen garden or cooking produce from the Angouléme market in the gite's kitchen, which also looks out over the garden and was really well stocked with handy oils, seasoning, spices and a great range of cutlery, crockery, glassware etc to prepare lovely family meals. The pool was a bit too cold to use during our stay (in April) but we got the impression it would soon warm up with a nice spell of weather. We've had the most amazing holiday and were made to feel so welcome by the hosts. I would definitely recommend this property for a rural family holiday.

About the host

Host profile image
Having a gite on my property is for me a way to share a way of life. We are so lucky to live in a such beautiful region with a quality of life that the all world envy us !!! I have two kids of 10 and 13 in 2021. And I appreciate each day as if it is a very special day for me and my family, in our home surrended by our colorful garden. In the summer we appreciate to have a vegetable garden and all kind of herbs. In the winter we do enjoy our family life in a quiet , healthy and comfortable place .

What makes this property unique

When I found this property to sale , I was pregnant of my first child . I was looking for a special place to raise my children.. safe and quiet, .. but I didn't know exactly what. When I saw the ad ... and arrived at the fence of the property I immediately knew that It was the place to be ! to raise my children and having a family life.
The property is in a village, but at the end of a small road... like if you arrive at the end of the world. It s fenced , there is a path , a round about , a vegetable garden, the pool area ... Each corner of the property makes someone happy . This house use to be a farm more than 200 years ago, the walls are 80 cms thick , you can keep it cool even when it s really hot outside. From the pool area , we have a view of the countryside for kilometers...And in few minutes we can be in town, Angoulême, the big city of the Charente, a beautiful town , with restaurants , museums, and plenty of cultural and sporting activities.
