On a private holiday domain tucked away in an elevated position less than a kilometer from the market town of Chalais, in the Charente region, our spacious ground-floor villa Le Charme offers 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. It sleeps up to 9 guests and is ideal for a family or friends holidaying together. It is also available over weekends (min. 3 nights stay) to accommodate guests attending weddings in the area.

The house is spacious, bright, and contemporary. The garden has views over open countryside, a heated, alarmed pool, and a covered al-fresco dining area with gas and coal BBQ. The entire pool is surrounded by a decked area, ideal for chilling on your sun loungers.
The domain offers the extra benefit of a play park for the little ones, the use of onsite tennis courts, a petanque piste, and a ping pong table.
Private parking in front of the villa for approx. 4 cars.

You can walk (approx. 15 minutes) or cycle to your nearest town, Chalais. With the car, it will take approximately 3 minutes.
Chalais has a railway station where trains run between Angoulême, Coutras and Bordeaux.
Angouleme station, 45 minutes’ drive away, is where the TGV gets you to Paris in less than 2 hours.
The Charente region is known for its excellent climate, only beaten in France by the south coast! Local wine-tasting tours can be enjoyed, tasting the local Pineau, various red, white, and sparkling wines. We can recommend a few.
The region benefits from beautiful undulating hills and valleys, pretty little villages & market towns, and local freshwater lakes with sandy beaches (Etang Vallier, Aubeterre sur Dronne, St Aulaye ) dotted around the area - all within a short drive from the domain. During high season, you can enjoy various evening markets, live music, etc.
A 13-minute drive will bring you to the Circuit de Haute Saintonge - famous for its motorsports & bike racing as well as go-karting. Kayaking can be arranged in Aubeterre-sur-Dronne or Parcoul, a great outing with kids too.
Further afield: - visit the bustling cosmopolitan city of Bordeaux (1 hour away) and wine town St Emillion (50 minutes) - the perfect day trip, a true paradise for wine connoisseurs.
The beaches of the Atlantic (Royan, St Palais sur Mer, St Georges de Didonne) are approximately. 90 minutes drive away. It takes approx. 2 hours to visit La Rochelle.
Distances (by car) to wedding locations/venues in the area: Chateau de Valouze: 18 min (18km), Aubeterre sur Dronne: 15 min (14 km), Manoir de Longeveau: 21 min (20 km), Chateau Mas de Montet: 22 min (20km), Chateau de Lerse: 24 min (25km).
We hope to see you soon at Le Charme in the Charente.
