About this space: A charming rural retreat. Welcome to a beautifully restored old farmhouse where life is effortless—both indoors and out. Tucked away in a peaceful hamlet beneath the endless skies of the Charente and surrounded by views of vineyards, this much-loved vacation home belongs to English owners with a passion for music, cooking, and the rhythms of French country life. That love is evident in every thoughtful detail. The Space The House This high-quality, private, and spacious farmhouse sits within its own enclosed walled garden, offering complete privacy and a true sense of retreat. Recently fully renovated, it has been carefully designed with families and couples in mind. Built from warm, buttery Charente stone and framed by traditional maritime blue shutters, the house faces south—simply open the shutters and sunlight floods the rooms.
Nature and surroundings
Inside, you’ll find: - Traditional blue shutters on the windows - Beautiful Charentaise stone walls - Whitewashed walls - Exposed wooden beams throughout - A sense of relaxed, stylish simplicity The farmhouse is located in a peaceful rural hamlet. While this offers wonderful tranquility, a car is essential for exploring the surrounding countryside, vineyards, and local markets. As with many traditional stone houses, the property stays naturally cool in summer and retains warmth beautifully in cooler months. Rural France offers dark skies and wonderful quiet—you may occasionally hear distant farm activity depending on the season. Cell phone reception may vary depending on your carrier, but excellent Wi-Fi is available at the house. We kindly ask guests to respect the peaceful nature of the hamlet and our neighbors during their stay.
