Lovely location and nice and quiet after hectic travels
Spacious and idyllic location with fresh tomatoes from the garden made available to us. All appliances worked and there were lots of supplies, spices, cooking oil etc. from previous Vrbo customers. Only miss was it could use a clothes dryer but it was summer so we could hang out our wash.

Une maison superbe
Une semaine passée dans ce lieu superbe, au calme, dans cette ancienne maison en pierre restaurée avec soin et meublée avec goût. On se croirait à la maison. Plein de ballades à faire, de lieux à visiter... Merci à Sarah pour son accueil.

Ein Wohlfühl-Haus
Wer dieses Haus für die Ferien bucht, wird es nicht bereuen! Sämtliche Zimmer sind sehr schön eingerichtet, die Küche ist top, ebenso die beiden Badezimmer und das Gäste-WC im Haus. Hinzukommt der besondere Charme des Hauses: unsere Vermieter kauften es mehr oder weniger als „Ruine" und haben es in Eigenregie über Jahre hinweg neu aufgebaut und restauriert. So mischt sich „Alt" mit „Neu" auf sehr reizvolle Weise... Der Garten hinter dem Haus verdient ebenfalls 5 Sterne! Alles blüht und grünt. Je nach Tageszeit und Sonnenstand gibt es zwei Terrassen auf unterschiedlichen Höhen. Morgens kann man seinen ersten Kaffee auf der oberen genießen und abends ist die untere genau richtig, um den Tag mit einem guten Wein ausklingen zu lassen. Natürlich. Das hört sich jetzt alles so an wie aus einem Werbe-Prospekt. Aber genauso war es! Fazit: in diesem Haus, in diesem Garten und mit den wenigen Nachbarn drumherum findet man Ruhe und Erholung und gleichzeitig ist man in knapp einer Viertelstunde in Saintes, in ca. 30 Minuten in Cognac und nach La Rochelle fährt man auch nur etwas mehr als eine Stunde... Für Tagesausflüge also eine ideale Lage. Insofern ist keine Überraschung, dass wir bereits über einen zweiten Aufenthalt nachdenken. Unsere Gastgeber haben alles RICHTIG gemacht! Merci!!!

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
We are both retired teachers (maths and English). Sarah is of British origin and Jean Pierre is French. We bought the house in a run down state and it has been our project over the past five years. The renovation of the ground floor is complete, next winter we will tackle the "attic" to add more bedrooms.

Why they chose this property

We ourselves live about 20 Minutes away from the house. The house is situated in a very charming spot, a stream runs just 100 meters from the house. The Charente river is only a few minutes away. You only need to hop on a bike, cycle for a few minutes, take the (free) boat to cross the river and you will be in the pretty village of Chaniers with its shops, church and beach (river swimming)

What makes this property unique

The house is typical of the region but with a new extension. It is very sunny, spacious (120m2) with a garden on three levels. There are several terraces all of which get the sun all day long.
