Situated in the Nouvelle Aquitaine region of France, in Vouleme (86400), we have two gites / self catered cottages available, offering the perfect holiday rentals for couples, friends and families.
In the French Countryside
Within a few minutes walk you can go for a swim in the river Charente, walk past the sunflower fields in the summer. The area is also great for cycling, whether as a family or for longer rides. Just a short drive away, you can explore the region’s markets, discover the local Chateaux, sample the local Pineau and taste the local food in the summer Marches Gourmands. There are also plenty of family days out to be had with the Vallée des Singes, la Planete aux Crocodiles, Futuroscope as well as the towns of Poitiers, Angouleme, La Rochelle and Bordeaux within easy reach.
The Gites
Emerald
Emerald is the smaller of the two gites. It is small but perfectly formed with a double bedroom and a smaller room with bunkbeds. Whilst it has retained its charm, it is modern and comfortable, making it perfect for a couple or a young family.
You walk into the main living area, with a fitted kitchen with dishwasher, fridge, oven and gas hob.
There is a TV and a DVD player.
There is a modern shower room.
The gite shares its garden with us (and our cats… and children), which means it also shares the beautiful open views onto the countryside, where you can spot dear, birds of prey and even the odd boar!
Book your stay
Jade
Jade is the largest of the gites, and is filled with rustic charm as well as its own private garden, which makes it ideal for long term rentals. Whether you are househunting in the area, renovating a home nearby, or simply want to discover the area without the commitment of buying a home here, Jade is a great place to stay.
It has a large living area complete with a log burner, and a large kitchen.
Upstairs there are two big bedrooms and a shower room that was newly fitted in 2019.

For now, we’ll say “A bientot” and look forward to meeting you!
