We had a lovely stay. The gite is clean and well equipped, the beds are comfortable, the bedrooms that are located downstairs nicely cool during hot summer days and there are insect nets mounted at all windows. Apartment and garden are very well suited for (young) children (ours were 4 and 2); there is plenty of space and there are plenty of things for them to play with outside. Pool is decent sized, clean and has a pleasant temperature. Location is very quiet, but there are sufficient things of interest in the surroundings. Would definitely recommend! Last but not least: thanks Monique and Lex for being such warm and caring hosts! We have felt very welcome and this has definitely contributed to our stay.

Magnifique petit gîte au calme de la campagne en Charente limousine. Monique et son mari sont au petit soin. Le gite est super propre et confortable. Nous avons profitez de la petite terrasse pour nos repas et aussi de la piscine après nous excursions. Les chambres au frais en rez de jardin étaient vraiment super en cette période de canicule.
