About this property

Charming, Detached Farmhouse With Private Swimming Pool.

Set in its own spacious garden and surrounded by quiet countryside, this charming, detached, former farmhouse is an ideal place to get away from it all. The private swimming pool and large garden provide an ideal family holiday location. The interior of the property, with its exposed beams, stonework and wooden floors, is typical of the region and has been comfortably furnished in traditional French country style. Peuliard, a hamlet of Lizant, is located near to the pretty town of Civray in the south of Vienne. Nestling on the banks of the picturesque Charente river, Civray is dominated by an impressive Romanesque church which can be seen in all its splendour from the main square of the town. Pavement cafes and a twice weekly market add to the atmosphere of this pretty town. Fishing, canoeing and riverside beaches are also a feature on this stretch of the Charente river. Good area for cycling and walking. Shop 10km, café/bar 2km
Please note that along with the tranquility comes a challenge with providing broadband connection. WiFi is not provided, although there is usually 4G signal available on your own devices.
There's a private patio. 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 shower and a hair dryer. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like wireless internet access and onsite parking.

Enjoyed our stay could be much better
Apart from the bed collapsing on quite a few occasions, some of the parts of the house been mended by bodgit and scarper and the pool having seen better days. I quite enjoyed our holiday. It’s a lovely peaceful setting in which to enjoy the surrounding area. You just get the feeling that the house could be spectacular but they’ve gone for the cheaper option in order to maximise profits. The property manager and owner were always available and willing to help out whenever they could. The place needs a bit of money spending on it. With a few upgrades, the cooker being one, it would be a great place. I would book again if improvements were made. 👍

Beautiful House
We loved the house, the garden and the swimming pool. The facilities were great including the library of books, games etc. We had everything we needed apart from quality WiFi. My husband needs to keep in touch with work when we're away so to be sure that he could cope, and so that our young adult son had internet access, we did take our own device to create a WiFi hotspot. We were unfortunate with the weather, a lot of rain, so although we enjoyed the pool we didn't get as much use as we would have liked. I was quite happy with the books though! The welcome pack and the swimming towels were much appreciated. I think with the garden, pool, toys, games etc. it would be a wonderful place to take children

Pretty house
We did have a lovely stay but there were a few issues. The house is old so we know how difficult they are to keep clean but the house does need a good deep clean. We all found the beds too hard and if you do not like wildlife this is not the place to be. There is a shrew family living in the house, we had bats in the bedroom and there are larger creatures that can be heard in the walls/ceilings at night.The close proximity of the fruit trees to the pool does mean you will need to spend some time each day collecting fallen fruit to reduce the number of wasps in the pool area. A big storm also meant we had to spend a fair amount of time cleaning the pool to remove the leaves. We had visits from the neighbours dogs and cats The area is very rural and very pretty. We had some lovely meals st the Hotel du Comnerce in Civray, really enjoyed the canoeing at Taize-Aizie, and wandering around Nanteuil-en-Vallee

The perfect house for a family getaway.
I booked this house for a family holiday holiday to celebrate my Mothers 60th birthday. There were 5 adults, and 2 children. It really was just perfect. The owners have obviously put a huge amount of effort and time into renovating the property. It has such a homely feel and we all said how easy it was to relax. The rooms are spacious and we had everything we needed from kitchen utensils to fun garden games. The little touches like children's toys and DVDs to suit all the family were just brilliant. The pool and massive garden were a bonus! We enjoyed lots of time playing games outside and even a BBQ one evening. The location is idyllic and quiet and the region is just beautiful. We found some great walks to go on from the house. We enjoyed visiting the markets in Civray and Ruffec and consumed far too much cheese and wine during our stay! Ben, the owner was quick to answer any questions leading up to the holiday and was easily contactable. We wouldn't hesitate to return again and would highly recommend. An absolutely wonderful holiday with lots of laughs and great memories. Thank you

Wonderful place!
We had a fantastic time here! We went with 2 children, aged 4 and 7, and 4 adults, and it was perfect for us. The house was clean and well equipped with everything we could possibly need, from extra towels for the pool, to books and games (indoor and outdoor!) to salt, herbs, spices and even ice! The welcome pack including local wine, bread, local honey, pasta, milk and butter was very much appreciated. It was very peaceful and the pool was absolutely lovely!

Lovely typically French old stone family house with excellent amenities
La Peuilard was an ideal house for a large family gathering of 7 adults and 3 children. The pool, table tennis table, tyre swing and space for cricket were well utitlised! We were able to use the outside table for all meals, and found the kitchen very well equipped. We all were extremely comfortable and happy and thoroughly enjoyed our week!

Fantastic house in a beautiful location! We enjoyed our stay and thinking about coming back .
We loved everything about the house and the surroundings. From charms of the old farm house to the well equipped kitchen , from privacy of the swimming pool to the locks on the gates to the pool (very useful if you have small children). All ready thinking about booking it for the next summer. Thank you very much. Lana, Mark and Alexandra Foster

Bien mais détails à régler
Pas de présence physique à l'arrivée, par contre gardien très reactive en cas de soucis (bouteille de gaz ramené très rapidement après appel). Le gros point noir : le chien du voisin qui aboie en pleine nuit pendant quelques heures, heureusement pas toute les nuits mais sur 1 semaine là moitié du séjour.

Lidl et Super u sont a 10min en voiture. On a trouver tous ce qu'il dans sa cuisine équipée et même des jouets pour bébés et pour les grands aussi. Une très belle expérience.

Belle maison de campagne avec extérieurs magnifiques
Parfait pour des vacances en famille. Une belle maison de campagne avec une grande piscine, une terrasse avec barbecue et salon de jardin pouvant accueillir 10 personnes, une table de Ping Pong. Très propre avec serviettes de toilette et de piscine et draps et même un panier de bienvenue. Un seul point négatif : la qualité médiocre de la connexion wifi (qui semble plus être un boîtier 3G).
