About this property

Stunning gite With Shared Pool, Nr Matha & Cognac (first floor also available)

The ground floor gite (100m2) has two bedrooms: one (20m2) with a king-size bed and the other one (15m2) two single beds. It also has a walk-in wet room shower ideal for those who find standard showers difficult to access and has the space for a wheelchair or shower seat. It has an open-plan living/dining room and kitchen (42m2) with dishwasher, microwave, hob and oven.
There is a TV (with English channels), DVD player and ipod dock. There is also a wood burner for the slightly colder evenings.

The gites are set in a traditional Charentise courtyard and are barns lovingly renovated to provide comfortable modern accommodation whilst still retaining many of the original features. Thus providing a great base to relax and from which to explore this beautiful region and the varied attractions of the Charente-Maritime and Charente. Close to the beautiful historic towns of Cognac, Saintes and St Jean D’Angley but also within easy reach of the lovely beaches of Royan, La Rochelle and the Cote Sauvage.

Perfect location, property and hosts.

Beautiful property set in idyllic location, can’t recommend this property enough. If you want to relax and do nothing or get out and about exploring France it’s great.. Gite was excellent, spotlessly clean and everything we needed. Pool and garden areas very well looked after. Kelly and Ian were great hosts, around when needed, would most definitely recommend and will be returning again.

Beautiful gîte in the Charente countryside

Had a lovely week long stay in this beautiful gîte, perfectly suited for wheelchair/scooter users too. Plenty of room to move about. Very comfortable and spotlessly clean. Kelly , Ian and the family were all very welcoming and friendly, helping out with places to eat etc. Quiet and peaceful with plenty of things to do and see in the surrounding area or just relax in the sun by the lovely pool. Would highly recommend and would definitely go back.

Fantastic property, friendly owners - wonderful holiday

We had a lovely week in this beautiful location & well kept gite. Very peaceful village in a great location with lots of things to do in the surrounding area. We had lots of trips to the beaches, which are beautiful. Property was great for us with our 1 year old with very well equipped property , we particularly loved the personal touches of age appropriate toys along with the trampoline and climbing frame. Wonderful pool & toys too. Fantastic holiday - thanks!

About the host

Hosted by Kelly Barlow

We are Kelly, Ian, our children Martha and twins Archie & Josie plus Rufus the dog. We have lived here since we bought the house and barns in 2006 and love the beautiful peaceful countryside, large spaces and the fact we were made welcome as soon as we opened the gates to move in. We have renovated the barns and house from top to bottom ourselves and have put all our love and care into making the Gites and gardens a beautiful, relaxing place to holiday and after eleven years and three children! we would not wish to be anywhere else.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the house and barns as soon as we saw them, and even on a cold January morning we could see how lovely they could be and what a great place Les Grandes Ecures is. Our gites have the benefit of feeling lovely and secluded on the edge of the hamlet with beautiful views of the Sunflower fields and vineyards, but only 10 minutes away from Matha (our nearest town) or for more night life or shopping only 20 minutes from Cognac and 30 from Saintes.

What makes this property unique

The Gites benefit from beautiful thick stone walls which help keep the rooms cool in the summer, whilst retaining the heat in the winter. The Hanger provides a great place to sit and eat anytime of the day (or just sit and relax) with that all important shade in the summer and the cars are parked in the courtyard the other side of the gites from the pool and garden so as not to interrupt the views or disturb your holiday.
We live in the house on the other side of the courtyard from the Gites and are there to provide you with any assistance you may need with your stay (ideas on places to visit or eat) or to leave you in peace to enjoy your relaxing holiday at Les Grandes Ecures.
