Descripción
Our lovely detached gite has been recently redecorated. It has an inground, heated, salt water pool with large terrace, fabulous views and all amenities nearby.
Tranquility Cottage as its name suggests, is set in peaceful surroundings where you can totally relax and unwind. There are some lovely walks and cycle rides to be had around the country lanes yet our local village with all amenities is less than a 10 minute walk away. Alternatively, you can lie on a sunbed by the heated pool (which measures 10m x 5m) then dive in to cool off,swim or just float around on the lilo in the sunshine! The pool is heated from mid May until the end of September.
We are approximately 6 hours drive from Calais not incuding coffee breaks! We are also only 30 minutes from Poitiers airport and 1 hour 15 minutes from La Rochelle airport. Ryanair/Easyjet fly all year round. The house is ideal for a summer holiday, a short break or a base to stay if you are house hunting.Minimum stay is 4 nights.
Access is via your own gated entrance and the property is all on one level.
There is a private shady garden behind the gite and a sunny terrace area in front with bbq, sunbeds, patio table and chairs overlooking the swimming pool and the countryside beyond. The front garden is south facing so the pool is in the sunshine for most of the day but there are parasols for shade when needed.
The pool is shared only with the owners who occasionally have a swim after work/golf!
Outside dining is normal during the summer months as the mild climate allows for breakfast, lunch and evening meal al fresco.
Inside the gite is comfortable, airy and light with 1 bedroom, kitchen, lounge/dining room and bathroom. Wi-fi is included.
All bedlinen, towels (not pool towels) and tea towels are provided.
One of the simple pleasures of staying here is the cycle ride/ walk to collect your croissants/ bread from the boulangerie which only takes a few minutes. In the village you will find all the usual amenities including a supermarket, lively local bar, chemist, bank etc.
This is a real escape from it all holiday but within easy reach of many beautiful historic towns, lakes with swimming and beaches, coastal towns/ beaches, the bustling port of La Rochelle, Poitiers and Futuroscope, Chateaux of the Loire, Venise Verte and the Charente river.
We know you will have a great holiday!

#172. Wonderful Holiday
We have just sadly left the Gite, after a wonderful week, spent exploring the local area. We also used the bikes for a ride, which we really enjoyed. The pool is set in a beautiful setting, we spent many nights sat outside talking and reading with a glass of wine. Hazel and Paul are perfect hosts, really lovely couple with helpful tips of the local area. We even managed a day trip via train to Paris, La Richelle and the canal day rowing a boat was all part of our perfect holiday.
#151. Fabulous Holiday
Great accomodation, wonderful pool, lovely peaceful location, friendly and welcoming owners (and the golf wasn't bad either!!). Plenty of places to visit and things to do. It's a short walk to the village which has a fab boulangerie, a Spar and a bar which serves delicious pizzas. Paul & Hazel are a lovely couple and we really enjoyed their company. We're normally reluctant to post reviews about wonderful places as they then book up really quickly and we lose out!! We will definitely return. Phill & Anita xx
#144. Aptly Named Accomodation
Lovely accommodation in a beautiful tranquil setting. Lots to do or just spend days around the pool, enjoying the peace and tranquility. Places to eat a 10 minutes walk or drive away or a short walk to the village where the Spar and Boulangerie provide for all your food needs. Hazel and Paul are very warm and welcoming hosts, there is always help if you need it, but otherwise you are left on your own. We spent 10 days here and would certainly recommend it.
