Summary: This house is exceptional. Monica and Warren have given thought to everything needed for a great holiday here, from lovely colour schemes to extremely comfortable seating and beds and very well equipped kitchen and fantastic showers. We wouldn't fault anything. The owners are warm, welcoming and informative and the welcome "goodies" very generous. We enjoyed breakfast and evening drinks on the little terrace with its view of the river. The garden would have been perfect for afternoons when shade is needed (it was a hot week) but we were out and about a lot and so did not make full use of it. This was a very convenient base for everything we wanted to do. The river walks are stunning, Jarnac is within east walking distance along the river and Cognac is doable for those liking longer walks. I believe that this is usually a very quiet tranquil village but we stayed during of 3 amazing nights of Son et Lumiere on and around the river and village square celebrating the history of the region. It was all very exciting but noisy with rehearsals and performances going on past midnight. It was quite a shock to us oldies ,used to being in bed well before that but it was a really good way to experience the culture of the region. Although we didn't take advantage of it, I'm sure foodies would love the Michelin guide restaurant right next door. We may go back to experience the peace and quiet and if we do we will not hesitate to book this property again. We loved our holiday.

Summary: We absolutely loved staying at Monica and Warren’s beautiful house. Monica and Warren were the perfect hosts and we have never stayed in a house so well and so thoughtfully equipped. The house is in the pretty, tranquil village of Bourg Charente and overlooks the river Charente across a quiet paved area. The house was even better than it looked in the photos and our daughter loved her room so much she didn’t want to leave it! We enjoyed sitting on the little terrace enjoying a coffee, watching the swallows from our window and exploring the local area such as the lovely towns of Cognac and Saintes. The river however was the focus of our stay and we took every opportunity to swim in its beautiful clear waters both close to the house and from other little towns dotted along the Charente. Our kids spent hours on the rope swing over the water and it was lovely to see that it is brimming with wildlife. On our last day we had a beautiful cool swim in blazing sun beneath the local chateau whilst a couple of kingfishers flew just above us and dragonflies danced around us. Says it all. Hope to come back.
