Our second stay at this gite and we enjoyed it as much as the first. Wonderful hosts, clean and well equipped gite, great location and had everything we needed for a relaxing holiday.
We had a wonderful week in the gite. The property was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. We were looking for a relaxing week away to unwind and could not have picked a better place. The weather was warm enough for us to use the pool a few times which was clean and welcoming. We used the garden/patio area everyday which was also clean, tidy and comfortable. We will definitely look to stay here again.
From the moment we walked into the gite, we knew we were going to have a fabulous holiday. It was spotlessly clean, spacious, tastefully decorated and well equipped. The hosts live next door and were on hand if we needed anything, however, the gite offers a high degree of privacy and seclusion. We had fantastic weather and made good use of the heated pool which, like the gite, is much larger than the photos suggest.We have holidayed in France for over thirty years and we can honestly say this is one of the best gites we have ever stayed in.
Thank you Maxine and Dave.
The property was absolutely spotless upon arrival. We were shown around and it was so much bigger than it looked online. As it was incredibly hot 51 degrees at one point!!) it was great to see that all the bedrooms had their own fan and the boys having their own bathroom was great too. The best part for me was the lovely pool. Big enough to properly swim in but shallow enough so my 20 year old son with autism was willing to get in the pool and both him and his brother learned new skills. It was just for our use which was perfect!! The house is in walking distance from the Ecomussee about cognac ( great little museum and lovely tasting after) and a short drive to the local supermarket in Matha. There is a bakery within a 5 min drive as well.
All in all we all had a great week. The owners were right next door but we did not need to call on them. Nor did we notice them as the garden en pool are super private. One of the best holidays I’ve had!
Hébergement très confortable, spacieux et très bien équipé
Il faut aimer le calme et la tranquillité. Ne pas oublier de faire ses emplettes avant de plonger dans la piscine ou de s’installer sur un transat!!!!
Property was in excellent condition and had everything we needed for a quiet relaxing break.
Owners respected our privacy but were around if we needed anything.
Just returned from a very relaxing fortnight. The gite is lovely - spacious, comfortable and nicely decorated. Everything you need is there, with enough for 6+ people. David and Max are lovely hosts: helpful, yet discrete. The garden is pretty and well kept. It offers an appropriate level of shady and sunny areas, and there’s plenty of seating. The pool is securely fenced and was a welcome asset. Being heated meant it could be used throughout the day, even in May. The gite is in a small hamlet with an eco-musee a short walk/drive away. It’s definitely worth a visit and the owners have organised a fun self guided tour. The nearby village of Migron has a small grocery shop and boulangerie which were handy on occasion. The larger towns of St Jean d’Angely, Cognac and Saintes are 20-30 mins away. The coast is also an easy drive. All in all, if you’re looking at this gite, you should go ahead and book it. You won’t be disappointed. If (when) we return to this area, we shall stay here again. Thank you David and Max.
Les abords et la maison en pierre sont très beaux. Le quartier est très tranquille, en pleine campagne, mais d’un accès facile à plusieurs petites villes comme Matha, Cognac, Saint-Jean et Saintes.
L’intérieur de la maison est remarquablement propre, très bien entretenu.
Le terrain arrière est complètement clôturé, de même que l’accès à la piscine. C’est d’une grande sécurité pour les enfants.
Des jeux pour enfants sont à disposition.
La piscine est très propre et régulièrement entretenue, en toute discrétion.
Les propriétaires habitent la maison à côté et le premier étage de la location mais l’autonomie du logement est totale, et ils restent très discrets.
Le séjour est spacieux, de même qu’une des chambres qui comporte une salle de bain charmante.
Les deux autres chambres sont assez petites (surtout une), de même que la deuxième salle de douche.
L’eau des douches est bien chaude et abondante.
La cuisine est moyennement équipée.
Le seul point faible de cette location est la la terrasse qui est en plein soleil jusqu’au soir et que rien ne permet vraiment d’ombrager très efficacement.
A noter que, par rapport à ce que peuvent laisser penser certaines photos, il n’y a pas de barbecue à gaz mais un simple barbecue au charbon de bois et qu’il n’a qu’un simple parasol droit bien insuffisant pour le temps de canicule que nous avons connu.
Very nice property with great heated pool and garden with seating area. Very quiet location (which is what we wanted) and the secluded garden and pool are a real highlight.
Swimming pool a great addition and we’ll used during our stay, host attentive to cleanliness. Great spot for exploring and bonus, cognac museum on the doorstep which is well worth visiting, especially for the tasting at the end.:)
Nous recherchions un logement avec piscine sans vis à vis, tranquil et tout confort, nous l'avons trouver! Maxine est adorable et Dave très discret. La maison est dans un petit coin de Migron très calme tout autour de quoi s'y promener à pied vous y rencontrer des vignobles, des champs de tournesols et arbustes a s'y perdre nous y avons croisé a plusieurs reprises des faons c'était beau à voir. La maison a tout pour se sentir comme chez sois, les petits détails font les grands. La maison était propre et cosy. Assez spacieuse pour trois adultes et trois enfants de 3 à 6 ans. La cuisine très bien équipée de quoi cuisiné a volonté. L'espace extérieur est super tout juste ce qu'il faut. L'air de jeux est vraiment un plus ainsi que le petit cabanon qui cache plein de surprise pour les enfants et adultes. Le linge de lit était nickel et de nombreuses serviettes étaient à notre disposition. Un séjour d'une semaine vraiment parfaite. Je recommande les yeux fermés. Un grand merci.
Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour - la maison est jolie et très propre. Le jardin tranquille et agréable. Les hôtes très accueillants et discrets. Merci pour tout!
The gite is beautiful and well equiped. The swimmingpool and backyard are juste perfect (our daughter will remember it forever).
We had a lovely stay, and David and Maxine are friendly and welcoming, We felt at home immediatly.
Thank you for those wonderfull vacations !
Nous avons passé un très bon moment dans la propriété de David et Maxine. La maison était très propre et très bien équipée. Elle était parfaite pour notre séjour avec notre enfant de 1 an.
Très agréable avec de jeunes enfants : jardin clos, pelouse, jeux, piscine protégée. Très calme
Accueil très sympathique, maison très propre et spacieuse. Très beau cadre et maison en pierre de taille. Une très belle et grande chambre pierre apparente et salle de bain *** Grand séjour, cuisine assez bien équipée. En revanche petite taille de la 2ème chambre lit double et 3ème chambre 2 lits simples.
Séjour très agréable.
Nous avons passé un excellent week-end dans ce superbe gîte. Au calme, très bien équipé, très cosy et même une piscine privée et chauffée.
Les propriétaires sont vraiment charmants.
Nous gardons l'adresse pour y retourner avec grand plaisir !
la maison est mitoyenne à celle des propriétaires, qui ont été extraordinaires et qui ont contribué à faire de notre court séjour de 4 jours un petit moment de détente parfait. La maison est très propre et parfaitement entretenu ainsi que l'espace extérieur, avec une piscine bien chauffée et très agréable. La maison est à 2 kilomètres du centre du village le plus proche, dans un hameau de quelques maisons distantes. Le lieu est ainsi bien calme et permet de profiter des belles journées avec sa famille.
Spent two nights in windy February in Maxine and Dave's house. Living next door, Maxine welcomed us and was very helpful throughout our short stay.
The house is well equipped and completely suited for children as the garden is enclosed and so is the pool.
Will think about coming back in the summer to fully enjoy the location!

About the host
Hosted by Maxine or Dave
Hello our names are Dave and Maxine we moved from the UK to France 12 years ago for a more relaxing lifestyle. When we first brought our property it was a run down Farmhouse that was used to produce local Wines and Cognac, over the years we have now transformed it into a warm and welcoming holiday home.
Why they chose this property
After many exciting and interesting holidays exploring most of France we decided to choose the Charante Maritime area to purchase our first holiday home due to it's renowned micro climate and beautiful country sides.
What makes this property unique
We enjoy morning bicycle rides up to the local Boulangerie and evening walks down to the stream through the Vineyards and Sunflower fields behind the property. The property is central to Cognac and Saintes which we find convenient for shopping and evening meals out.
