We enjoyed our stay, spent mainly relaxing in the beautiful garden, chilling in the pool and helping with the chickens. Our impressionist painting lesson with a local artist was great. Jason and Alison helped with everything we asked.

Great host

Jason was a great host, very helpful and friendly. The games barn is the best we’ve ever found, really good quality pool table, ping pong, fitness machines etc kept us all entertained. The house was exactly as described and the garden large, with good play equipment. Nice little village with great blue avarie and a bar.

Lovely, Well equipped house with fantastic outdoor space and facilities

We had a lovely 10 days here with our two children (6 & 1). They loved the pool, trampoline and games room and were never bored. Jason and Alison were great, listening to our daughter natter on and show off her new swimming skills! Nothing was too much trouble and they gave great advice about places to go. Although the village appears to be away from it all, we found plenty to do - lots of chateaus, cognac, pretty villages, and the two lakes nearby were great for swimming and beach fun. It was super hot whilst we were there (38degrees) which made it a little difficult to sleep at night - perhaps a couple of fans in the bedrooms. I’d also like a few more pillows, but that is a personal choice. Overall it was the best family holiday we have been on simply for the fact that there was so much for the kids to do there was never the pressure of hearing ‘i’m Bored!’ Thank you Jason and alison

zalige vakantie

Het huis ligt in een zeer rustig dorpje, maar fantastisch gelegen in de natuur. De woning zelf heeft ook een zeer grote tuin met veel groen, een beekje op het einde van de tuin, en alles wat je als gezin nodig hebt. Er is een bakker op wandelafstand, de supermarkt is 8min rijden met de wagen. De keuken is ook goed voorzien van keukengerief. Jason is een zeer goeie gastheer, zeer behulpzaam en vriendelijk. Wij hebben enorm genoten van onze vakantie daar, van de rust, de natuur, het leuke zwembad (met veel opblaasspeelgoed voor de kinderen). Kortom: een aanrader!

Un jardin pitoresque

Le jardin est vraiment magnifique. Il y a toutes les commodités essentielles pour de bonnes vacances. Le seul petit hic, c'est le manque d'isolation phonique dans chaque pièce. Les cloisons sont très fines et le parquet grince énormément. Si ce n'est ça, le propriétaire était très disponible et très sympathique. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié ce mignon petit village.

Petit plus la salle de jeu pour adulte avec billard, baby-foot et table de ping pong et jeux extérieurs pour les enfants. Je recommande fortement cette location. Un grand merci aux propriétaires.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image

We moved from UK to the beautiful village of St Fraigne in October 2015. We gave up our busy jobs of Mortgage Advisor and Early Years Practitioner to enjoy the 'French life'. This was the start of our new adventure.

Why they chose this property

A beautiful working farming village location with an award winning boulangarie and a bar only 2 minutes walk away. We fell in love with the village at first sight and decided we wanted to live in St Fraigne, and within 3 months had bought our dream property. The property has the character of a typical French stone built house with up to date amenities.

What makes this property unique

A beautiful pool in a large garden ideal for relaxing moments. Lots of long walks and bike rides to keep you occupied.Many local lakes with fishing swimming and sand. Ideal base for visiting Poitiers, Angouleme (both with numerous attractions), La Rochelle, chateaux and the coast. The towns of Ruffec and Rouillac are within easy reach for cash machines, fuel, shopping and local markets. We are within a five our drive of Roscoff, Caen, St Malo and Dieppe, Calais and Cherberg are slightly longer drives. A fantastic base for exploring the wonderful Charente countryside!
