Spacious Charentais Farmhouse Among Fields Of Sunflowers And Vineyards

Dating from about 1900, this Charentaise farmhouse is situated in a tiny hamlet among fields of sunflowers and vineyards, set back off a minor road. Careful and tasteful restoration has resulted in a very appealing house, charmingly arranged to provide a very high standard of accommodation. A mixture of traditional and contemporary furnishings combine with exposed stone and beamed ceilings to give a comfortable ‘country’ ambience and the whole is impeccably kept. A beautiful covered terrace (approximately 4m50 x 8m) provides a sheltered area for outdoor meals, while beyond is a colourful garden of some 900m² with lawn and lovely flowering shrubs. The owner`s family live in a converted barn nearby, beyond which in the field is found their pet donkey 'Oscar' after whom they have named the gite 'Ferme d'Oscar'. The setting is private (the nearest neighbour is about 10m to the rear of of the property but no windows overlook the garden) and peaceful.

A very comfortable gite in a beautiful region
The gite is well equipped, clean and comfortable. It was great to have 3 bedrooms and three badrooms! The property is spacious and the surroundings are quiet. The covered terrace is a a real pleasure. There is a lot to see in the Saintonge: churches, castles, gallo-roman remains (for example an amphi-theatre, acquaduct) and lovely towns. The coast is not too far away and the beaches are very nice. Bordeaux is about 75 minutes by car. We used the Parc & Relais Les Lauriers where we parked the car and travelled by tram to the city centre. Anne and her mother are great hosts: friendly and very helpfull, giving a lot of information about the region. Thank you for your hospitality and a relaxing stay at your gite!

Very clean, well equipped chite. Friendly and supportive welcome from Anne, yet allowing privatise
The area is beautiful, very peaceful and relaxing. The property is spacious, and relaxing. There is a large patio area to enable to sit and eat outside. It is partially covered giving good protection for the heat of the sun, and rain, should it occur. Thisi is our second visit, and if you are looking ofr a peaceful relaxing holiday I woud strongly recommend it.

Perfect gite in stunning area!
This gite provided very comfortable accommodation in a truly beautiful area. We could not have wished for anything. The gite has been extremely well renovated to provide comfort and very tasteful decor. It was extremely well equipped and seemed every detail had been considered to give guests every possible comfort. The covered outside eating area was a real bonus and very well used into the evenings. The gite is on a very quiet road that gave perfect tranquility with only a short walk to bakers for fresh bread and breakfast treats, but is situated so that a huge variety of places to visit and activities to suit all tastes are easily accessible by car in the area. Anne and her mum were very helpful and friendly, leaving us safe in the knowledge they were available if needed but completely unobtrusive. Ideal hosts! Thank you for the freshly picked cucumbers and plums! Would highly recommend a visit to the Cognac producer, M. Baudry in the village. Very friendly and relaxed as were with all the people we met in the area. Only disappointment about our stay was that it was only for one week! Cannot wait to return!

Belle maison, spacieuse, aménagée avec goût
Tout est là pour passer un bon séjour, un accueil très chaleureux, un seul regret, de ne pas avoir pu utiliser davantage la grande terrasse, en avril c’est encore un peu juste.
