Description from owner

Description

Situated in the river Vienne valley we have our two bedroom Gite available, which can sleep up to 4 people. It is registered as 3* with the local tourist Office.

The private garden has views towards the village and the river with a patio, loungers, soft garden furniture, table and chairs, and a barbeque. There is your very own plunge pool in the garden to help you cool off on those hot summer days, or just relax on the sun deck.

The Gite has the following features:-

1 double bedroom, King size bed, opening onto the balcony with river views.

1 bedroom with two single beds.

Mulberry silk filled Duvets and Toppers are provided for that extra bit of luxury.

Deluxe Shower room with toilet.

Open plan living area including fully fitted kitchen.

Private entrance, patio area, sun deck and garden.

WiFi, DVD and Blue tooth speaker.

Flat screen television, with Freesat channels.

Off road parking

You can relax in the garden or take a stroll on the river bank. Perhaps you would like to enjoy breakfast on the balcony? Watching the river flow past (it's very addictive).

The village is a short walk away (200m) across the bridge, and offers a baker, a bar/restaurant, a Bistro, a small shop stocking most essentials and a chemist (although we hope you won't need one)

The wildlife in the area is stunning with Kingfishers and Dippers on the river and Buzzards and Eagles in the skies. If you are here at the right times you can see the migration of the European cranes. There are owls in the woods at the back of the house as well as nightingales.

The Office de Tourism requires that we collect a Tax per Adult per night. This will be collected in cash on your arrival.

“Excellent place to stay”

Reviewed 29 Aug 2017

This is a lovely property, very comfortable and in a brilliant location if you would like peace and quiet in which to relax. The garden and pool are ideal for relaxing in - the raised seating area by the pool is private for sunbathing and the shaded seating under the pergola is lovely for when it gets too hot. The property itself is very clean and well equipped and the beds are very comfortable. The view of the river both from the balcony and the garden is addictive! Dave and Heather are lovely hosts - very helpful but they leave you in peace to get on with your holiday and do not interfere, so you need have no worries about them living next door. Many thanks for a lovely holiday Dave and Heather - even if you could not guarantee the sun!
