Peaceful countryside French stone house near vineyards

(Scroll down for French)
Experience authentic French country living in this historic 1850 house set amid Cognac vineyards, sunflower fields, and close to charming villages. Our home is spacious and furnished with care.

Enjoy an apéro in the house's tranquil surrounding gardens, which are fully enclosed and feature a pool, BBQ and delicious grapes hanging over the barn. Savor your meals on antique French porcelain.

The house, which has wooden beams, oak floors, exposed stone walls in almost every room and spectacular views, is outfitted with modern luxuries including spa-like bathrooms, to rejuvenate your senses, and immerse yourself in indoor-outdoor living.

This light-filled rustic property is very peaceful and fully private. It lies in the heart of nature and is ideal if you're looking for quiet and calm. The sumptuous common areas in the house include two lengthy dining tables, two plush couches and sculptural lighting. The bedrooms have quality French linen sheets. Family friendly amenities include a high chair, Mokee crib, toys, Bjorn baby bouncer and bassinet.

The house is 30 mins from officially one of France’s “most beautiful villages” Aubeterre-sur-Dronne as well as vibrant markets -- don’t forget to sample the local Charentais melon! For a day trip to explore city life, Bordeaux is an hour away, and Dune du Pilat, Europe’s highest sand dune, is a 1 hour 30 min drive.

This is a charming centuries old country house that we're taking great care to restore and outfit with modern comforts. While the home is certainly idyllic, there may be unforeseen issues that crop up so please don't hesitate to reach out to me immediately so I can make your stay comfortable.

The closest town is the fortified hill-town of Barbezieux (10 mins away) which has a medieval castle, playground, stores and good restaurants.

The stunning village of Aubeterre-sur-Dronne is also a 30-min drive.

Angoulême, home to the comic book festival, is 30 mins away.

Bordeaux is 1 hour away.

The beach town of Royan is 1 hr 15 mins and Arcachon beaches are a 1 hr 30 min drive.

Vacaciones estupendas
Todo Genial! El entorno es muy tranquilo, rodeado de viñas, maizales y campos de preciosos girasoles. La casa es preciosa y espaciosa. Tiene todo el encanto de una casa de campo, decorada con gusto y está equipada con productos de calidad . La casa tiene espacios exteriores donde correr, jugar, descansar. La barbacoa muy bonita . Red, nuestro perro, también disfrutó muchísimo al tener tanto espacio para correr y jugar. Una gran experiencia.
