About this property

Part of an Old Farmhouse set in large secluded gardens with stream.

The Gite at Font-Robin forms part of the old farmhouse which is situated within five acres of mature land offering a 'get away from it all' setting. Font Robin has a small stream runnning through the garden which is unfenced so extra care must be taken at all times with children. Avy has a 12th Century church and numerous walk ways and cycle paths. For those who prefer a more active holiday we are ideally placed for exploring the numerous sandy beaches and beautiful towns of the Charente Maritime. Les Antilles Water Park and Spa is only 15 minutes drive. There are many other activities including fishing, horse riding, canoeing, bird watching on the Gironde marshes and wind/sand surfing.We live in the attached part of the farmhouse so are on hand if you should require any help.
There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment. The bathroom has a bathtub and a hair dryer. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker, and housekeeping is provided on request.
Don't miss out on recreational opportunities including a water park and an outdoor pool.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Wonderful Gite!
We really enjoyed our week stay. Rod and Zeena have thought of everything for the holiday makers both in and out of the gite. They greeted us so warmly on our arrival and provided us with the essentials for the first night, including cold beers in the fridge as we stepped out of our car! They have made the property a real home from home and the garden was huge and great fun for the four of us and some friends who came to visit for the day. Rod and Zeena were always on hand for questions and gave us recommendations of both beaches and towns to visit which was great. The photos do not do the property or the outside space justice as it more fabulous in real life! We had an amazing relaxing week. Thank you so much for making it a great holiday.

Es war wunderbar!
Wir hatten mit unseren Kindern (8 und 10) einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt. Das Haus ist groß und gut ausgestattet, der Garten riesig und bietet mit dem kleinen Pool, der Tischtennisplatte, dem Federballnetz usw. und der Größe unendliche Beschäftigungsmöglichkeiten für Groß und Klein. Die Lage ist toll: man befindet sich im ruhigen Nirgendwo, gleichzeitig bietet die Gegend eine Vielzahl an Ausflugsmöglichkeiten (Schlösser, Strände, wunderbare Städte, aber auch Kajakfahrten) und tolles Essen. Hinsichtlich der Gastgeber kann ich mich den bisherigen Bewertungen nur anschließen. Zeena und Rod sind unglaublich freundlich, überaus hilfsbereit, sehr herzlich und gleichzeitig angenehm unaufdringlich. Unsere Kinder vermissen Monty, den freundlichen und wohlerzogenen Labrador, auch heute noch sehr! Vielen Dank für Alles!!!

Such a great vacation home
We truly enjoyed our stay at Zeena and Rod. They are the most welcoming hosts you can find. The garden is terrific. We enjoyed the pool, the ping pong table and just the overall outside space. But the inside is great as well. Lots of space and comfort. Good enquiped kitchen, comfortable living area. There is a lot of nice things to do in the area for us and our two daughters (9 and 11)

A lovely stay
We really enjoyed our holiday at this lovely place. It is a big house (bigger than we judged by the pictures) with a well equipped kitchen and an enormous garden with lots of possibilities for sun and shade. The owners (who live in the adjacent farmhouse) are very kind and friendly people and very helpful when needed. And we all enjoyed their gentle and playful dog Monty!

excellent séjour
La maison est très coquette et très accueillante elle est mitoyenne avec celle des propriétaires mais ça ne pose aucun problème, d'une part parce qu'ils sont adorables mais aussi parce que les jardins ne donnent pas du même coté ce qui fait qu'on a le sentiment d'être seuls au monde au milieu de la nature Nous avons passé 2 supers semaines, la région est très riche d'activités et le jardin est merveilleux nous recommandons vraiment cet endroit!
