    Property was beautifully finished. All of the amenities were thought of. Very comfortable, a home away from home. Lovely touches like providing coffee, tea, salt pepper, sugar, fruit and olive.oil. Lawrence and Martyn were very nice but the...

Laurence et Martijn
You will be welcome in our charming gîte in one of the barns of our Charentaise house in the middle of a 4000 m2 garden. Recently renovated, leaving character details such as the stone walls and the wooden frame. This old Charentaise has the advantage of keeping freshness even on very hot days. The cottage includes on the ground floor a fitted kitchen, a spacious bathroom, a dining area and a comfortable living room with sofa bed. Upstairs, the bedroom "Les champs" with a double bed, a wardrobe and a desk. The "La mer" bedroom with 2 single beds (separate or joined), a wardrobe and a reading corner. Outside, private garden, deckchairs, hammock, above ground swimming pool (shared with the owners), barbecue, games, ...
I was born here between the wheat fields and the Pineau vineyards. I left for a long time for my studies in horticulture. After my studies, the country of flowers and plants, Holland, adopted me for almost 15 years. Then I met my husband Martijn, he was ready to build new projects... and obviously it can't be anywhere but in my Charentes... Our dream in opening this gite is to make people discover our magnificent region. The Atlantic coast, yes of course, but also the land. The history of the Gallo-Romans, De Vauban, Napoleon, ... of the old stones of Saintonge Romane. We speak 3 languages and we hope to welcome you soon!
Perfectly located between Saintes, Cognac and Saint Jean d'Angély. The small village of Aumagne offers calm but also proximity to medium-sized towns and the ocean. Only 50 minutes from the Atlantic beaches. But also in the heart of Saintonge rich in history, heritage and gastronomy.
