    Monica and Warren were exceptional hosts. The house is beautifully equipped and very clean. I particularly liked that there were thoughtful touches- such as good coffee; olive oil; tea; milk; wine- waiting for us. The river is great for swimming!

Please read this entire blurb. La Maison de Riviere has been completely renovated with restful colours and décor intended to help you relax and enjoy your vacation here. It is fully equipped with modern conveniences and appliances. The house is a fully independent, self-catering property. Beds are ready-made-up with 100% cotton linens, and towels are provided for bathing. Swimming towels can be rented for 5 euros per person. They are large bath-sheet size. There is Shower Gel and Shampoo and toilet paper in the bathrooms too. You can expect to find all the basics, including butter, milk, oil, salt and pepper, foil, baking paper and plastic wrap. You will find cleaning supplies and paper towels. You only have to supply the food you will eat during your stay. Our Welcome Folder includes plenty of information on where to go in the South Charente, and all of the Markets available to you. This is a fabulous location for walking, biking and kayaking/boating. Most of our guests enjoy swimming in the river during the warmer months. An excellent Formule lunch is to be had at La Maison du Passeur, the Depot de Pain/Café/Restaurant 2 mins walk away. Treat yourselves to a Michelin Star meal right next door at La Ribaudiere. There is a large, private and shaded garden a few steps away down a private alley, with outdoor furniture and games. FOR larger groups, why not rent the small house next door which sleeps 4 people. La Maison du Bonheur is also available on this platform. search by house name in Bourg-Charente. You will see that it looks almost identical to this property. NO 3rd PARTY RENTERS . Person booking this property must be a guest for the entire duration of the booking. No Smokers/Pets Sadly, Booking dot com does not leave room for comments by the Hosts, in regard to reviews that may have a less than 10 score. Some guests do not communicate with the hosts in regard to any issues they may have, but choose to score us poorly for something not our fault.
