HOME
Le grand bois, originally a cognac producing farmstead, has been tastefully converted into our home together with two gites and an enclosed swimming pool in our large wooded garden. La Vieille Etable~Gitehas 6 bedrooms and sleeps up to 12 people and La Petite Grange~Gitewith 1 bedroom sleeps up to 4. Both gites are Charente Tourisme classified. Le grand bois was constructed around the 1850's as a small farm with outbuildings around a courtyard, with a well providing the water supply, a stone oven in which to bake the bread and stables for the farm animals. This has now been converted into our home, a large gite which can accomodate up to 12 persons and a small gite which sleeps 2 to 4 persons.
The gites have their own private entrance with parking for up to six cars. The bread oven and well remain but we have built a 10 x 5 meter swimming pool in the garden for the exclusive use of our clients. The garden has lots of fruit trees and nut trees and plenty of space to disappear with a glass of wine and a book.
At le grand bois~Gites you can enjoy a peaceful, stress-free holiday beside the swimming pool or you can use the superb facilities to explore the many attractions and places of interest offered by the south-west region of France.
The Charente is still also a great place to buy your own holiday home. If you are considering this, with our experience and Ians' architectural expertise, as well as a great holiday, we can offer lots of useful information and contacts.
The small gite is ideal as a base for house hunting or exploring.
Whatever your reasons for visiting, you will be made very welcome at le grand bois !! Top

The pool is checked and cleaned daily.
The garden has fruit and nut trees and our own row of vines which provides two types of eating grapes in late summer.
We are surrounded by fields of sunflowers, maize, wheat and of course vines.
