Description

Behind private gates, overlooking a mature lawn and trees, our beautiful stone cottage awaits you. Floor to ceiling windows light up a stunning open plan living space with generous sofas (including sofa-bed), log-burner and smart tv with super-fast broadband. A fully-fitted kitchen gives all you need for family meals around a beautiful oak table - unless you prefer the veranda with its pretty vines. Walk out of the other living room door and you find a stunning courtyard pool, with comfortable loungers and poolside shower. Upstairs, a master bedroom with double bed and ample storage; next door a second bedroom with sleeping arrangements for 4 ; and a modern bathroom and shower with sink, good mirror and lighting.

The house works equally for couples seeking a romantic break and families with children of all ages.

Ébéon is a peaceful hamlet perfect for anyone who is looking to switch off and unwind. Surrounded by fields of sunflowers and pineau vines growing the area's famous aperitif Pineau des Charentes and Cognac digestif, we are also only 40 minutes from the Atlantic beaches. The area - Charente-Maritime - is a French department of Nouvelle Aquitaine region positioned on the west coast of France and is named after the Charente River. The region has the highest number of annual sunshine hours in France apart from the Côte d’Azure - but it’s a lot closer! - and enjoys mild winters, lots of early spring sunshine and many hot sunny days that last in the autumn.

Our local town of Saint Jean d'Angely has a fab selection of places to eat, from pizzerias to bistros and restaurants. It also has a bustling Saturday market in the covered market hall in the centre of town that has stood for hundreds of years. The famous town of Cognac is 25 minutes away. And 50 minutes away is La Rochelle - ancient port and maritime city with beautiful architecture, cobbled streets, parks and museums and aquarium. An hour or so from our house - is the island of Île de Ré with miles of glorious sandy beaches, green-shuttered pretty villages, whitewashed houses, artisan shops and seafood restaurants. But you can find an array of lovely Atlantic beaches much closer and enjoy exploring the seaside spa towns that line the coast.

We live in a house in the grounds during the summer months, and are on hand to help with anything you need - but we also keep ourselves to ourselves to ensure that you have the peace and privacy that you need. We don't have reviews yet because we're new on the market, so please do come and visit to see for yourselves how lovely it is here.

Details of our weekly prices are set out elsewhere on this website in addition to these we charge a £100 cleaning fee and will always ask for a £500 refundable damage deposit which we will return after a check out inspection of the property.

Wonderful stay with family

By Emma R. on 07-Jul-2023

This Gite has provided us with a wonderful holiday we will remember forever. The location is quiet and tranquil and yet within easy reach of the local markets and some of the great sites of this area. The accommodation is full of character and just what we were after. Everything you need is on hand in the fully equipped kitchen, there was great wifi for the occasional work check-in and a new Samsung Smart TV for the odd night when we caught up with some Netflix. Our hosts, Chris and Sophie provided us with plenty of great advice about the gite and the local amenities. Travelling with Ryanair, it was great to have all our towels and bedding provided, as well as a washing machine to keep on top of things. The pool is clean, private and enclosed by a lovely old wall that must have been part of the building at some time in its previous existence, it provides a wonderful suntrap, but also has corners to escape the sun and just relax with a book. The garden views from both the gite and pool are extensive and full of trees and dappled sun. We enjoyed great trips to Ile de Re, Cognac, Angouleme and Saint Savinen, all of which are well worth the visit and within easy reach. A meal out is Saint Jean D''Angley is well worth it for a relaxing time and authentic French cuisine. The grassed area directly outside the gite provided a warm pretty spot for our evening meals surrounded by grapevines and flowers. We enjoyed several nights of Scrabble and cards. We will certainly come again!

Beautiful house in a lovely quiet setting

By Sarah C Wales on 14-May-2023

We loved our stay. The house is comfortable and cosy has everything you need. The pool is perfect and completely private. And it''s in a lovely quiet rural location. If you want to go out and about it''s only a short drive to St Jean D''Angely - a beautiful ancient market town - and only about an hour to wonderful beaches. Lovely local walks too. Thanks Sophie and Chris!
