Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and discover the peace and beauty of our cottage in the hamlet of Artige, 4 km from the town of Saint-Savin-sur-Gartempe in the Vienne department. The cottage is a former “bergerie” and is separated from our home by a barn, ensuring our guests’ privacy. It has a separate entrance and its own parking space. The cottage features a modern interior that exudes comfort and style, consisting of a cozy living room, a fully equipped kitchen, two double bedrooms, and a bathroom with a shower and toilet. From the living room, French doors lead out to the terrace in the garden, which offers plenty of shade and a beautiful view of the surrounding area. All windows are equipped with screens. You have private use of the heated swimming pool, perfect for warm summer days or simply to enjoy a relaxing moment. A unique experience is a “glass fusing” workshop led by the hostess.

Nature and surroundings

A vacation in the French countryside. A wonderful, relaxing vacation with a dip in the pool or the nearby Gartempe River, a hike or bike ride through the fields and nature, reading a book in the shady garden, or visiting one of the many historic villages in the area—enjoy every moment! In the center of Saint Savin, right next to the church with its beautiful frescoes, you’ll find a 13th-century abbey listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You can pick up fresh croissants or baguettes at one of the bakeries; there’s an Intermarché supermarket for all your grocery needs, and there are various restaurants and bars/outdoor seating areas. There are regular farmers’ markets in the area; in neighboring Chauvigny, there’s a market every Saturday morning where you can buy lots of local products and fresh vegetables—highly recommended. The cities of Poitiers, Tours, and Limoges, with their historic sights, are easily accessible by car.

What a wonderful home Gerard and Alida have created here. They’ve left nothing to chance. Everything is in perfect condition, the atmosphere is wonderful, the kitchen is fully stocked, there’s a fantastic coffee maker, and a great Weber gas grill. We had a wonderful week here, making the most of the lovely garden (with a delightful plunge pool and cooling bath) and ending each day with a lovely walk where we felt like we were the only people in the entire area. We were even treated to a more-than-fantastic starry sky with shooting stars. In short: a wonderful destination to return to.

Home, but in mind still in Artige 1908. A vacation spent there, you do not forget. The owners, Gerard and Alida, are very nice, caring and both very creative. The cottage: spacious, clean, excellent beds. Large bathroom with rain shower. Kitchen, good pans, cutlery, plates, etc. everything more than enough. Large fridge with large freezer, is full of surprises, homemade jams, ice cream, drinks, herbs plenty available. Fireplace, wonderful warmth on a chilly evening. Living room, cozy, light, very good sofas. Walls are full of paintings,large and small,all equally fascinating to look at.All painted by Alida and for sale. She also gives course in glasswork. One of us did that,result a beautiful glass dish.It stands on our table to show off.Large garden,view of fields and woods, grazing deer! Sun loungers etc.widely available. Starry skies, sunsets magnificent.Discover the many rivers.Artige, total peace and quiet.Loafing is natural here.
