Accueil sympathique. Endroit calme et reposant. Très beau parc. Gîte confortable. Ce serait parfait si pour aller d'une pièce à l'autre il ne fallait pas monter ou descendre des marches

Une semaine au calme!
Bonne semaine malgré le temps! Maison agréable et bien équipée. Jardin très bien entretenu. Bon accueil. La terrasse abritée a été appréciée pour pouvoir manger dehors sous tous les temps! La piscine est également parfaite quand le temps s'y prête! Plusieurs visites sympas à faire autour: château de la Mercerie, village de Villebois Lavalette, Aubeterre sur Dronne, jardin du coq à Montignac le Coq.

Great accomodation
A very beautiful house with character and a well-kept garden. The pool was also nice. The welcome was very warm, very nice people. We were particularly pleased with the small selection of regional products that were kindly made available to us for tasting. Thank you very much for that :-). In summary: We felt comfortable and would book again if we were in the area again.

Très bon séjour en Charente
Tout commence par un très bon accueil, les propriétaires sont charmants et disponibles. Maison très propre, tout y est (que ce soit pour la cuisine, les chambres, les sdb). Les deux sbd et deux toilettes sont un plus. Maison bien fraiche (appréciable en période très chaude) et spacieuse (on ne se sent pas à l'étroit, que ce soit dans les chambres, sdb ou autres). Environnement très calme et très agréable, au milieu des champs et près de la forêt. Extérieur très bien entretenu, clos (sécurisant pour les enfants), de la place pour bouger. Terrasse ombragée. Piscine top, très propre, spacieuse, avec transats et jeux. La région est sympa à découvrir (limite entre la Charente et la Dordogne). Bref, nous avons passé deux très bonnes semaines et recommandons ce gite sans problème.

Séjour recommandé
Nous avons passé une belle semaine de vacances à Boisné-la-Tude avec nos deux petits-fils. C'est une région magnifique et paisible. La maison est très spacieuse, récemment rénovée, confortable et en parfait état. La piscine est magnifiquement paysagée, spacieuse et bien entretenue, compte tenu du beau temps nous avons pu en profiter pleinement. La description du site correspond à la réalité, nous avons été bien accueillis. Un voyage à Villebois-Lavalette et Angouillème vaut la peine. Certainement recommandé
