Cottage vacation rentals in Charente-Maritime

What a serene and peaceful location, I've been visiting this area for 12 years and this is the 1st Airbnb we really didn't want to leave. We thoroughly enjoyed how private and tranquil the whole space was, besides some visits from a very friendly dog and of course a warm welcome from Fabien and his daughter we saw nobody else for the entirety of our stay. Fabien went out of his way to offer us any support we needed, and we couldn't recommend his place more! It's the perfect location for a family stay, and our only regret is that we didn't have more time to stay explore the local surroundings. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you again Fabien! we hope to see you next year.

We booked Maddy‘s place very last minute. She was very amicable and got the place ready quickly for us! The upstairs mezzanine was perfect t for ours kids. Maddy and her family were so friendly and helpful. We would definitely visit again if we’re passing through. The house was perfect for two adults three children and a dog. Our children are aged 8, 10 and 12 and we enjoyed cycling out to the local town and playing by the swimming pool. The kids loved feeding the goat, there were chickens too. They loved the owners dog too! We visited Royan, it’s approx 30 minutes drive. I would throughly recommend this place!

Louise and Mickael hosted us very well, with a bottle of white wine and cold beers! Very much appreciated! We had a pleasant week's vacation at Moulin Chaillou. We were able to enjoy the pool, which the children loved (4 years and 1 year). All shops are nearby, the beach is 45 minutes away, as well as the aquarium, etc. If needed, don't hesitate, Louise and Mickael are there to meet your needs.

Almost don’t want to say how lovely, as will make it more competitive to book to go back! In a word - glorious! - The gite, gardens and grounds and pool are kept beautifully. Gite was spotless and very well equipped (including lots of goodies on arrival, garden games to use there - kids were very happy - charcoal ready for the bbq etc), huge comfortable beds, and wood fired hot tub to sit and look at the stars. - Stunning surrounding views (endless fields of sunflowers) and lovely shady woods to be walk. - Lots of pretty villages - particularly Aubeterre with its central square and river beach worth the short drive (under 20 mins). We also loved the big river beach at St Aulaye (c.40 mins). - Meg and Mark are kind, fun and knowledgeable hosts who were perfect balance of around and incredibly helpful - but very much left us to just relax and enjoy the gite/pool as our own. - Shopping v easy at local supermarkets, various markets and nearby village shop/butchers. Thank you!!

Thank you for your hospitality and kindness, we enjoyed the pool, the hot tub and the different amenities. The large garden is lovely.

Thank you for your hospitality and availability, a lovely haven for a family trip. A quiet place surrounded by nature close to amenities and the ocean. All with very welcoming hosts

Virginia very responsive to my requests, very attentive. Very clean space.

We had a great time with friends and kids. The accommodation is well equipped, quiet, perfect for 2 families. The pool with sauna and jacuzzi is the perfect place for adults and children. The presence of the playground made the children happy. We thank Daphne and Blaise for their welcome. We warmly recommend for anyone looking for a quiet week.

A lovely house in a beautiful location, really close to restaurants, shops and the beach. Really responsive hosts. Thanks!

Great stay as a family at Corinne's. Comfortable bedding, very nice night spaces. Very nice outdoor space. In rainy weather the table inside is a bit tight, we missed the jacuzzi but actually the weather was not suitable Corine is a charming and very friendly host. I recommend

We had a great time at Marie Noelle's place! ✨ The space was sparkling clean and matches the photos although they don't show it enough because it's even better and more spacious in real life! The parking space is super convenient and the area is very quiet and charming with some nice little bakeries nearby! Marie Noelle was kind enough to answer all our questions and is very understanding about check-in times! We recommend it! 👌

Perfect stay! Linda was a wonderful host and we had everything we need. Cottage has lots of character in perfect surroundings. Had some of the best meals in nearby Melle.

A very nice spacious house and large property. Everything you need. Very comfortable beds. Clean... Great area. Great with a dog...especially at this time of year (March) you can walk great with the dog... Of course, the house is not cheap, but now everything has become very very expensive... Great hosts, always respond very quickly, friendly, helpful... So I'm sure we'll be back 🌞🌞🌊🌊

A really lovely comfortable gite. Amazing outdoor space including a safe pool with loads to entertain the kids. And lots nearby to do for young and old. We really enjoyed it with our two young ones.

Great stay. Self check-in. Everything was spotless, a small basket with eggs and tomatoes was waiting for us, thank you for the attention. Very well appointed studio, super comfortable sofa bed. Convenient air conditioning. Bathroom niquel. The garden has much more to our 2 dogs and we had the pleasure of meeting the donkey upon arrival. We stayed 3 nights and were able to visit the area. (Car required) The surroundings are superb and wild for a good walk with the dogs. I recommend if you want tranquility while being quite close to oléron.

We had a wonderful stay at Maryline's! Her welcome was simply amazing, she was taking care of us throughout our stay. The place is peaceful, with an absolutely incredible view and setting, perfect for relaxing away from Parisian noise. We loved sharing this moment with our little dog, who was also very well received. Once again, thank you for everything, Maryline! We highly recommend this place and will definitely come back again.

We spent 2 very pleasant weeks with our 4-year-old daughter. The cottage is very well equipped and comfortable, the covered terrace is very nice. The indoor pool is a real plus. The residence is close to all amenities and especially the market. We could have gone mostly by bike. We recommend this accommodation without hesitation.

Colleen and Keith are super hosts, very responsive and close by. The house was as expected and situated near lovely small villages and picturesque towns.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and could easily have stayed longer. The place was perfect, fantastic pool, great countryside and fab location for day trips. Mark and Elaine were the perfect hosts, all in all a great place!

Thank you Steve and Bianca. You are wonderful hosts; your place is magic in a peaceful location, a real paradise. We hope to return again. Martin and Ilma

Alexis and Marine are very welcoming hosts... we were in a very quiet place. The place and location are really nice, great for relaxing and enjoying. Perfect location to discover other places ( La Rochelle 40min, 20min from Fouras, 40min from Île Madame, 1h from Amnéville Zoo etc.)

We appreciated Patricia's hospitality. The little house is located in a quiet environment outside the tourist season. The house is well decorated with the "marine" theme, very well equipped and functional for a couple. The immediate environment is very well maintained. We were there as part of a bike weekend.

Julie and Eric's accommodation is very good, everything you need. Host attentive to needs and very nice. I highly recommend it.

Marie was lovely. Despite my personal vagaries, she always responded quickly. Accommodation allowing a very good welcome, which makes you want to come back. Thanks a lot for all the attention!
