Welcome to our home and gites. We hope you enjoy your visit, please do not hesitate to contact us should you require any further information.  

We live in a small hamlet called Villenouvelle, situated in the North of the Charente-Maritime.  Less than 5 minutes away is our nearest village with all local amenities including co-op, boulangerie, doctors, dentist, pharmacy, bar/restaurant and church.

We have been welcoming guests to our gites for 5  years and thoroughly enjoy the experience.  We offer a very warm welcome, continous hospitality and a commitment to offering a great holiday and a relaxing time. We are very proud of our good reputation and ask you to take the time to browse our guest comments for reassurance and holiday ideas.

Our gites have all been renovated to a high standard.  Each have their own enclosed rear garden, perfect for families with younger children.  In addition there is a communal courtyard to the front for playing and socialising with other guests.  Our gites are well equipped to enjoy a great holiday.  English TV and WIFI accessibility is standard.

Ideally placed for outings to La Rochelle, Rochefort, The Marais Poitevin, Cognac, Poitiers and Bordeaux to name but a few, our holiday homes offer a comfortable base if you wish to explore the Poitou-Charentes and Aquitaine Regions.  With the added advantage of having 4 low cost airports nearby (La Rochelle, Poitiers, Bordeaux and Angouleme) we are just hours away!

 Alternatively, you may wish to shut yourselves away from the world and enjoy our 12x6m heated swimming pool (via solar panels).  All you'll need is a good book or Ipod and a bottle of sun lotion ..... perfect !!

On arrival you will receive a welcome pack of regional products and for those staying with us over the summer season a complimentary BBQ is provided on the Sunday after arrival (July and August).

Fun for everyone !!

A typical summer BBQ night   Bouncy castles can be hired for birthday parties

Family Friendly

As parents of young girls, we understand that if the children are happy, you are able to relax and enjoy your holiday more.  We also understand the importance of safety and have, where possible tried to ensure the whole area is child friendly and safe.  Our heated swimming pool is not only enclosed with a lockable gate but also has an automatic key operated cover for added security.  

There is a comprehensive video and DVD library for children, a playstation, garden jenga, pétanque and other toys available for your use.  Cots, highchairs & stairgates are available, please ask when booking.
