Cottage vacation rentals in Chalais

We LOVED our stay. The home is super stylish AND comfortable. Plus, it’s very private. We felt like we had our own home in the vineyards, away from *everything* (although you can still drive to Saint Emillion in 30 minutes or Bordeaux in around an hour). Karine also supplied everything you would need or want, including a speaker so you can hang out in the garden/hot tub and listen to music, which we did most of the time 😅 Overall I can’t recommend it enough. We actually hope to come back and stay because we enjoyed our week there so much!

Excellent stay, pleasant, charming and relaxing place, a nice decor in a really cute place. Alexandra and her husband are very pleasant and responsive, a pleasure to come across hosts like them. The place is perfectly equipped, you can't miss anything. Very good hot tub, very nice and completely private, available when you want and it's a pleasure. Remote accommodation, quiet and yet close to shops, very well located. Unbeatable value for money, I'll be back without worries:)

We had the pleasure of staying in one of Meg and Mark’s gîtes with our 2 teenage daughters for 4 nights. I had no hesitation in booking the gite having seen how beautiful it looked on the website and reading the glowing reviews both on the website and on Airbnb. On arrival we received a warm welcome from Meg and Mark who showed us around the gîte and the grounds. The gîte itself is just beautiful. It is absolutely spotless and exceptionally well equipped. The beds were super comfortable made even better by the high quality bedding. The grounds and gardens are very well kept and the pool is stunning with great views of the surrounding countryside - it was a big hit as was the hot tub in our private garden! To top it off, Meg and Mark are the most fantastic warm, friendly and welcoming hosts but always respectful of our privacy. Thank you Meg and Mark for a truly memorable few days and for your fantastic hospitality. Chez Lussaud is an absolute gem and is a credit to you!

Great for a short stay in a beautiful part of France! The host instructions re. local amenities and activities are super helpful given the relatively remote location.

An amazing home with a special mention for the kitchen (spacious, very well-equipped, a real pleasure to cook with the family). The accommodation is warm, the bedding very comfortable. It is spacious and tastefully decorated. We also appreciated having a bathroom for each room, the spa outside, the charm of the small village. Thanks also to Dominique, the person we were in contact with, who was responsive whenever we asked.

Perfect cottage for a romantic stay. Discreet, very quiet and well thought out, this cottage deserves a visit. Thank you for the welcome.

Great stay at Mike and Mandy's in their lovely and very warm cottage. The property and garden are beautiful, the environment very picturesque, with all the comforts of course! Mike is discreet but always there if needed with great kindness :-) So we found exactly what we were looking for for our Family Weekend, and we enjoyed the good family time spent on the covered terraces overlooking the valley :-) A really nice experience in this slice of paradise. We absolutely recommend!!

We loved it so much that we're booking it again at the end of the summer.

Beautiful location, great house and surrounding area. Brilliant cycling - loved it

A really lovely place surrounded by vineyards and with easy access to local towns. Bordeaux is a 90 min drive through some charming villages. I brought my dog and she loved the fenced garden. She loved Jonathan too! In fact, both Jonathan and Lesley are the most welcoming, considerate, generous and helpful of hosts. I stayed for a few weeks and would return in a heartbeat.

The house was really beautiful and had a good size outdoor area which was great for sunbathing and relaxing. Katherine left us a welcome pack which included fresh croissants and bread, orange juice, milk, butter, jam and a very nice bottle of wine! Very much appreciated. Each room has a fan and the shutters keep the house nice and cool. The house is in a quiet location but perfect for exploring the Dordogne and Charente. A car is a must.

Perfect accommodation, full of amenities for good cooking ;) Garden and great panoramic terrace, the river nearby and communication with Dorothée very easy throughout the stay. Great!

Thank you for this charming cottage, we had a great time there with the family. The garden is superb, wooded, quiet and pleasant. The coolness of the house is very nice in summer. Everything is as described, with a bonus of toy bins for kids!! :)

Thank you for a very relaxing stay. We found the gîte to be exactly as described, with all the amenities needed. The area is very pretty and we enjoyed exploring for the few days we were here. Peaceful and pretty area.

A beautiful and quiet place. Guillaume was a very warm and responsive and flexible host.

Julia is a very welcoming host and is available. Great stay, the home matches the description. Property to remember for a future stay.

We had a great week at Christian's place. The house is beautiful, tastefully decorated, well-equipped, quiet. The garden is superb and very well maintained, itself surrounded by meadows and forests. A real corner of paradise. Christian is very discreet but super responsive. A beautiful meeting. Lots of places to visit within a 30 km perimeter, castles, caves, ruins, nature hikes to do ... Both parents and children were delighted with this stay. We'll be happy to go back. Thank you Christian!

We had a very pleasant stay at Claire and Stephen’s property.

This is a really lovely cottage in amongst the vines, and a wonderful pool, terrace, bbq... It was extremely hot for the first few days (over 38 degrees) and although the cottage wasn't air-conditioned, it was cool and there were plenty of fans. Emma was extremely helpful and suggested lots of local restaurants and activities which were all great. The cottage was well supplied with everything we needed - good for cooking, and I read from (and donated to) the great little library of books provided. The unexpected bonus was that her TV could access UK BBC live and we watched a LOT of the Olympics with UK commentary! Such a lovely holiday, thank you.

We loved our stay here. Beautiful location in rolling countryside, comfortable accomodation with amenities just a short drive away. Our host, Fran was very friendly and responsive. The gite was just lovely. We had a great time and would go back.

Very nice house and really very nice. We had a lovely stay. I can only recommend it.

Wow!!! Everything was impeccable, clean, with everything you need in the kitchen! The exterior is perfect! Everything is super well maintained and of great quality! We were sad to leave! Thank you to Linda and Andrien for hosting us and your little touches!! We would recommend it without hesitation!!

We had a wonderful stay here. Lovely pool and bbq were the cherry on the cake! The hosts were lovely and we really felt at home. Would definitely visit again!

A beautiful gite in very peaceful location. Was extremely handy for the wedding we attended in the chateau just 5 minutes walk away. Lovely pool. We really enjoyed sitting on the terrace for a quiet drink. Lovely family time. Thank you so much Emmanuelle.
