Big Family Stay

8 of us stayed at this property. Good location for travelling around the Charante. Great little bar 1 minute walk selling small convenience items. House was large with a great size pool. House was relatively clean but does need some work on it. All the bikes were out of order and so unable to make use of the beautiful countryside. Owner was very good at emailing and getting in touch. I would stay again.

Great holiday in rural France

A fantastic holiday home. This is a great property with ample space. We were 2 families with 6 children between us and there was plenty of space for all of us. The house was well equipped and the pool was great. A lovely relaxing holiday.

Beautiful gite in perfect location

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The gite was clean, well equipped and spacious. Loads of entertainment for the children. They loved the play barn and pool. The local town was lovely with a tabac for essentials and morning croissants. The information pack left at the house provided us with lots of options of activities, restaurants and day trips. We would not hesitate to go back.

Perfect farmhouse property for a lovely French family holiday!

We recently stayed in La Ferme with our two young kids plus another family and had an amazing stay! Not only is the property beautiful, it is fantastically equipped. It has a lovely heated swimming pool and an adjacent garden with space to play ball games. This is fantastic for those with young children as they can play there while you keep an eye on them from the comfort of your sun lounger by the pool. The pool alarm and gate adds reassurance. It has a play barn which has numerous games and toys, such as table tennis. And if you don't fancy leaving the house, there are plenty of DVDs and a Wii to keep you entertained on any (unlikely) rainy days! There's also a beautiful courtyard where you can enjoy a lovely BBQ and drinks and the house also has a number of things for those travelling with babies/toddlers, such as a high chair. The owner has also been excellent, and the house contains a folder with information on a number of things which you can do in the region, ranging from advice on where to eat, cycling routes to days out at a beautiful lake with a beach and animal parks. In summary, I couldn't recommend staying at this property any higher.

Another fantastic stay in this gorgeous house

Grannie, Grandad, Mum, Dad, Auntie and two teenagers and a mate all stayed in this wonderful house again this year. it has everything you need for a very relaxing holiday. Lots of room to be comfortable - although you are not indoors much with the gorgeous weather. The pool is heated so very pleasant and always plenty of loungers available (we were usually the only ones using the pool). Would definitely recommend staying here.

About the host

Hosted by Dawn Mckenna

We have owned this property for 10 years now and spent may happy weeks with our family and friends, enjoying what the area has to offer. We spend many a day lazing around the pool, enjoying the local restaurants and days out with our children. We bought this house to come and relax with our friend and family and feel refreshed heading back to real life! Its a great space with enough room for all to have privacy or come together to enjoy the long hot days and nights!

Why they chose this property

We love the history and peacefulness of the area. There is lots to do and see but you can really relax and go home refreshed, something we were looking for.
