Charming and cozy cottage by the Charente river

MarkRating, 5 stars6 months ago

This is a little bit of heaven. If you're looking for somewhere to get away from everything (but still have enough to do), somewhere quiet (but still with lots going on) and somewhere that feels like a world away from stress and fuss (but still with Angoulême 30 minutes' drive away), you've found it. The house is spacious, warm and welcoming. There's everything you need (including a bottle of red when we arrived!) and restaurants and bars are less than 5 minutes' walk away. The dock at the back of the house on the river may be the best place ever to enjoy a coffee and watch the ducks or open a bottle in the evening. The best place we've found to de-stress. Love it.

Sunflower Cottage - sleeps 4

anna and ians gites are a rare find , both private , peaceful and yet close to bars , restaurants and shops. We loved the gite we stayed in which was tastefully decorated and furnished perfectly suiting the age of the building but with modern appliances. Anna and ian are the perfect hosts, being very approachable and extremely helpful, we have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this little gem !!

Lake View Retreat

CliveRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Geoff and Julie were the perfect hosts, friendly and available whenever needed. We only had to pop next door so ask for extra coat hangers, firewood etc. Geoff kindly lent me some fishing equipment so I could fish on his lovely lake. We were looking to buy a house in France and they gave us some very useful advice on their experience in France. The acomodation was well equipped and we have a very comfortable stay. Would highly recommend.

Stunning river terrace apartment

A very comfortable stay in a beautiful location. We stayed in the Terrace Apartment which was tastefully decorated, very clean and welcoming. The supplied cold water and milk were so helpful as it meant we could make an emergency cup of tea to start our day before heading to the supermarket! All toiletries and tea and coffee supplied! Would definitely stay again.

We had a great time at Gaby & Werner's, who are lovely hosts! The cottage is comfortable, clean and well-equipped. We were able to enjoy the terrace, large pool and a quiet and pleasant environment.

Country/Lake house, 8 people

We had a fantastic family stay at Sylvie's house, a real haven of peace on the farm and with stunning views of Lake Lavaud. It's hard to imagine a better welcome than the one Sylvie and her family gave us, who were particularly available to help us and allowed us to make the most of the area. Special mention for horses that evolve right next door to the house and ensure the wonder of the little city dwellers! We recommend it in full. Thank you again for everything and see you soon!

Rural Dordogne hideaway overlooking river

AnnetteRating, 5 stars69 months ago

From the moment we opened the door of our car, we fell in love. The house is very charming and surroundings absolutely beautiful. Very peaceful and relaxing. Our son loved the wildlife and was constantly on the lookout for new bugs, birds, and lizards. The loirs was no doubt his favorites. Our daughter spent a lot of time in the pool, which was bigger than expected and very nice. We had parents and inlaws coming to visit, a total of 8 at the most. We were very comfortable in the house, if you needed some time alone there was always possible to find a quiet spot inside or outside. We found it as a good base for daytrips in the region, there is a lot to see and do, but need a car. We have been to many places around the world, having an international family, and it is the first time we have been really sad to leave. (Even the kids that was looking forward to Disneyland). Abigail has been a great host, quick replies and very helpful. Many thanks again for letting us live in in your beautiful house.
