The owners were very accommodating and had thought about everything with some lovely personal touches. The children spent a lot of time in the pool. We had great weather so we didn't make much use of the sitting room, which is also amazing. Worth every penny." C.H. July 2025 " ... fabulous family farmhouse in the Charente ..... all utilities & attributes provided as announced and even more.Excellent ....." A.V. August 2024 "Wonderful week with the family in a dream house Everything was perfect for us! We had a great time! Thank you for everything! Can really recommand!!!" Y.S. July 2024 Super review from returning guests: "Thank you so much for everything, La Petite Pommeraie is such a special place, we all had a wonderful break!" Donna & Scott B, July 2024 The views across the countryside will take your breath away. This traditional & spacious Charentaise farmhouse gite is located in South West France! Set in the rural countryside of the wonderful Charente region of France, on the border of the Dordogne, this French 'longere' farmhouse easily sleeps 10 guests in five bedrooms and includes a private pool with its own auvent (covered dining area) barbecue facilities - ideal for families, friends or couples wanting space and time to relax and take time out. All the double rooms have kingsize beds, with one of these rooms being en-suite. Embrace the slower pace of life, meander through sleepy villages, vineyards, cafes and winding rivers. We are delighted to have many fantastic 5 Star reviews - please take a look in the Reviews section: "Fabulous Three Generations Family Holiday A wonderful well equipped holiday home in a stunning location. Wendy was extremely helpful from the booking in process right through to the holiday and even purchased a bike seat for our granddaughter so that she could join us on our bike rides. Everyone was catered for with the use of bikes, table football, pool table, outdoor and indoor games and much more. The pool was a great hit with all the family. We explored the local area and found plenty to see and do. We can thoroughly recommend the restaurant in Montboyer and also Creperie de la Source in Aubeterre. The only downside was that a week wasn't long enough!"

"Superb experience from start to finish ......." - review from August 2018. Our lovely French farm house offers traditional features, a rustic feel and is furnished in a simple and comfortable style. Fresh cotton bedding and fresh white towels to make guests feel at home and a well equipped kitchen in order to prepare and eat fresh local food. And then there are the wonderful views of the Charentaise countryside of South West France - from the terrace, from the house and from the pool. Watch the sun come up over the old lime tree, take in the fields of sunflowers, corn and maize. Then in the evening sunsets to amaze you as you relax by the pool. The house is a detached 'longere' farmhouse and has a HEATED PRIVATE POOL for guests sole use (in-ground, 8m x 4m, heated by PV solar panels) with an oak-framed, airy, auvent (pool barn) and barbecue area. This is a special area, with stunning views of the countryside. There is a loo/changing room, sink and fridge, so no need to leave the pool all day! A bright and airy kitchen/dining room leads onto a raised terrace with panoramic views of the rural countryside, where you can sit and relax. There are large areas of lawn and a selection of fruit trees, including apples (Pommeraie means "apple orchard"), cherries, fig, nectarines etc. There are trees in the terrace garden to provide just one of many places to sit in the shade and enjoy the view ..... and a hammock hidden away in the orchard. This beautiful farmhouse sleeps 10 guests across five bedrooms: all double rooms have kingsize beds and two with single/twin beds. (One of the twin rooms can be made into a kingsize bed by zipping the beds together. Please ask if. you would like us to do this.) One of the bedrooms is very large with en-suite facilities, with its own coffee or tea making facilities. There are travel cots available on request if required. The kitchen/dining room is spacious with a large farm house table, ample storage, a cooker & hob, larder fridge with freezer and dishwasher and is very well equipped for cooking for all the family. There is a large ceiling fan to keep the room cool. Amongst other kitchen appliances, there is a Delonghi coffee machine so you can enjoy coffee and croissant on the terrace. There is a separate laundry room with a washing machine and an additional freezer and a microwave. There is a large sitting room with comfy sofas, Sky TV and access to the terrace - cool and airy in the heat of the summer and cosy by the woodburner on cooler spring and autumn evenings. There is a pool table & table football in the games room. There is a family bathroom with bath, separate shower & electric towel rail. In addition there is a shower room with an electric towel rail. There is air-con or heating available in the bedrooms if required. Renovated early in 2015, we then relocated the kitchen to the centre of the farmhouse in 2018 - you can see how this lovely house has a welcoming warmth and lots of character. We welcome enquiries, as we realise it is important to know as much as possible when planning a week or two in France. Please do drop us an email or give us a call if you need more information, a plan of the rooms, further details of the surrounding area. There are plenty of photos on this site, together with a couple of videos showing the unique location of this house and its pool.

Aug 23, 2016 #### Great location and good value for money This property is located in a lovely shallow valley, and is surrounded by countryside making it very private. There is a train line in the valley, however this adds to the charm, it almost looks like a model railway; trains passing do not provide disruption to the peace. Family members spent many hours just resting by the pool in the hot sun, or in the shaded hammock watching the birds, insects and the odd train pass by, and then taking a dip in the private pool. The property was much larger than we expected, and features a further sitting room that was not mentioned at the time of booking within the property description. The kitchen was well equipped, we managed to cook for six people comfortably, albeit a few additional sharp knives and glasses would have been useful on occasion. All the appliances were clean, in good working order and are easy to use. In the pool house, there is a BBQ and a further fridge, and a covered dining area that provides a place for adults to sit, drink, eat and chat while watching over the children’s safety while they play in the pool. The air-conditioning in the bedrooms and kitchen was very welcome during some of the hot nights. The broadband internet is provided via the mobile network over a 3G dongle, this means that it is quite limited – however, this should be expected in rural France. There is Sky TV installed with UK channels, which provided some entertainment and allowed us to keep up to date with current affairs if required. In an outside storage area there are three adult bikes, and two children’s bikes (ages 8 – 14). The brilliant white towels and bed linen provided were crisp and clean; the towels were replaced midway through. No pool towels are provided. The pool was attended to midway through, the water was clear and not heavily chlorinated. Any issues that we raised with the owner were resolved quickly and amicably. We would recommend, with caveats; holidays are a subjective experience, and people have different tastes, standards and requirements for furnishings/amenities, entertainment and activities – for our family the location, privacy and peace and quiet was perfectly relaxing, and we would consider returning. Overall we felt that the property represented good value for money. Chalalis, the local large town is lovely, and easy to navigate to. We would recommend a visit to Montboyer to the Bar Restaurant, the meals are very good value for money at 13 EUR for 3 courses including wine. ##### James E.

La maison était super bien équipée, idéale pour notre groupe d'amis. La maison est aussi très adéquate pour de jeunes enfants: les chambres sont fraiches, la piscine est bien clôturée, et tout est de plein pied! Nous serons heureux d'y retourner pour une semaine de détente dans une belle région. ##### Elise P. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### CECILE P.

During these unprecedented times due to Covid19 our plans took many twists and turns. Wendy and Simon could not have been more flexible and understanding right up until our day of travel when quarantine restrictions where placed on travel to France. We decided to carry on regardless. We went with high hopes and expectations. We were not disappointed. The house and grounds were even better in reality. We were a party of 9 ranging in age from 3 to 60. There was plenty of space for everyone to join in together yet you could still find a quiet spot if you wanted. The pool area and views are fabulous. The quality of furniture and kitchen equipment were great. We thoroughly recommend this beautiful holiday home in its peaceful location. ##### Jane K.

The house is perfect for a large group with fantastic indoor/ outdoor living , plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms , pool, great country garden with lots of shade, beautiful country views covered bbq area etc We have travelled extensively and stayed in a lot of rented houses and I can honestly say this one was perfect.
