Chermignac House | THE RETREAT…”Huge house, gardens and pool. So much fun. Loved it”.

6 Bedroom House in Chermignac

If you are looking for something that has recently been renovated, with straight walls, without the odd crack, inside and out, Shabby Chic Paradise is probably not for you.
If by contrast you are looking for something idyllically charming you've just found it.
It is also the ideal if not perfect home and location for families with young children; it is safe and secure, has a large swimming pool but not too deep, gardens galore in which children can round around, a huge trampoline, a slide and swing set plus a variety of games and toys which are available to all!
On a practical note we have two kitchens and four fridge-freezers meaning you don't have to go shopping every day! Stock up, sit back and relax while your children run around the house and gardens.
Lastly, whilst seemingly in the middle of nowhere we are in fact only minutes away from the City centre of Saintes with a multitude of shops, restaurants, parks and attractions and we are only 30 minutes or so from the glorious sandy beaches of the Atlantic coast.
If the above strikes a chord with you we look forward to welcoming you to Shabby Chic Paradise, which is exactly what it is!
Best wishes,
Michael, Sophie, Lily and Rose.

Summary: We actually stayed for 6 weeks whilst waiting for our house purchase to complete. In that time we were visited by friends and family. Shabby Chic Paradise is in a great location, peaceful and private yet only 10 minutes drive to Saintes centre. Lots of space for groups and their pets and children. The house is well appointed, unique in character and very comfortable. We had a very happy six weeks and were sad to leave. Michael is an excellent host.

Summary: We were a family of four who stayed at the property for two weeks. We were there during the heatwave and were glad for the thick farmhouse walls and the pool to keep us cool. The place is a little "shabby" as advertised so don't expect luxury accommodation. But we enjoyed the rustic nature of it and it felt like an authentic rural French farmhouse experience. The pool (unheated), play equipment and house set up were ideal for our two children - they absolutely loved it there. The location was amazing for us - the road up to the property (and two others) is a km from the main road so you really feel out in the middle of nowhere. But actually you are only a 10 minute drive from Saintes, supermarkets and such. It was the best of both worlds. Michael was an exceptionally honest and diligent owner - he even made sure the property was right for us before accepting the booking. We did have a couple of issues while we were there (as you can at any property) but Michael was great with comms and dealt with things ASAP. Overall, we had a lovely relaxing holiday.

Summary: We had a fabulous stay at Shabby Chic Paradise. The property was beautiful with stunning views of the countryside. Very family friendly. The owner Michael is English speaking, was really welcoming and was very knowledgeable about the local area, which helped greatly. Would definitely come back.

Summary: The house is surrounded by fields and fruit trees, completely private with beautiful gardens and a pool. The rooms are large and comfortable and the kitchens have everything you would need. Michael is a great host for whom nothing is too much trouble, with great tips for things to do and places to eat. Our whole family - from kids to grandparents had a fantastic stay.

Summary: From the moment we made our first enquiries, communicating with Michael (the owner) was simply first class; his replies are prompt, understanding, humoured and most importantly, very well detailed. He was also very patient (organising 3 couples, 2 adults, 1 child and 3 babies is not easy!) and he clearly cared about making sure our stay was to be as comfortable and relaxing as possible. The property itself is exactly as advertised, a Shabby Chic Paradise, ideal for a group of adults and children to enjoy a wonderfully relaxing holiday. Where to start? Once there you will immediately feel relaxed. The view from the house, the amazing Conservatory in particular, is spectacular stretching over several fields with woodlands beyond and not a road in sight. Start the BBQ's up, light the pizza oven, open a bottle or two of Rose, watch the sunset after a lovely evening walk and chat late into the night in complete peace and tranquility. Then wake up to lovely soft sunshine, grab croissants and pain o chocolats from the Village store, and together with tea or coffee take time to ponder plans for the day. Plan 1: relax at the house, play in the pool or on the generous expanses of grass. Young children can roam around safely given the well constructed fence surrounding the pool. There is a slide and swings, inflatables galore for the pool, bikes with children's seats and plenty of space to play all manner of games. Plan 2: head to Saintes for a bit of culture and local food. Plan 3: splash around at the local aqua centre in Saintes or Plan 4: head west to the beaches of the French coastline. I could go on but if the truth be told, we were so happy at the house that we often made base there for the day. The children loved it and so did we! Insidthe house the temperature remains cool owing to the thick walls and lovely stone or wooden floors. The bedrooms are most generous in size and comfort. Both kitchens are well equipped and a total of four fridge/freezers mean you can shop for at least three full days before having to even think of further forays to the supermarche etc. The house and grounds are big; even with 12 of us it was possible to find a quiet spot inside or out to read a book and/or have a snooze. We felt the photos on the website despite being pretty spectacular just do not do the place justice - it really is beautiful. In short, if you want a place to properly catch up with friends or family, trust me, this is your place!

Summary: Loved our 1 week stay in 'shabby chic paradise'. It is the imperfection that makes it perfect. Only 1 complaint, 1 week is too short.
