Absolutly stunning property located in a quiet town, the pictures do not do the property justice exteamly large rooms adequate for a large amount of people, we spent 2 weeks in the property and were able to explore multiple locations all within 30 to 40 min drive away, and if you dont feel like driving there is a train station 2 minutes away allowing you to get around, all of the rooms have been carefully thought about keeping with the the age of the property, this has been one of the best places we have stayed in in some years and i would deffinatly recommend to other thinking of visiting

Lovely house with plenty of space and loads of character.

We had a lovely stay, the house is well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Pretty garden just over the road - beware of midges in the evening! St Savinien is a great base to explore the area with so many beautiful places to visit.

Beautiful house and town with all the amenities

My family and I stayed in this lovely home for 3 weeks. Having morning coffee on the balcony over looking the river and gardens is what I miss most about my mornings... Dinners under the Willow tree, movies next door, lovely Chateaus and Sculpture park just a few km away. We so enjoyed our time in Saint Savinien. I would absolutely stay again.

Beautiful Home

We spent a week at this fabulous property and enjoyed every minute. It was a relaxing and tranquil setting. The garden leading to the river was amazing ,was just able to fish from the bank (caught a 22lb carp on sweet corn ) but be warned the mosquitos are ferocious, so a quality misquote spray is required But overall a fabulous experience and will be returning.

Gracious home in a great village

The hosts are very nice and the house itself is gracious. Tall ceilings and well proportioned rooms, with beautiful details like the tiles and ceiling medallions. The kitchen is well laid out and well stocked. Showers and bath have plenty of water pressure and very hot water. The village setting is great, especially with the river. Good walks right on your door and convenient to many places to explore.

What a wonderful house!

This house was everything we could have asked for - full of charm and character, really spacious, and immaculately clean. The living areas are large and airy and the bedrooms felt just like home! Although it's an historic house, it has been renovated with sympathy and real style, with comfort and practical living in mind - all the kitchen appliances are new! And the hosts could not have been more helpful, The location of the house on the Charante gave us plenty to do during our stay, but great beaches and towns were also easily accessible. We were so sad to leave but will definitely be back!

Fantastic house in a beautiful location

We spent a week in this fantastic house and loved every minute - lots of great features and loads of space! 5 minute walk to a local bakery to get breakfast which was had on the balcony overlooking the river. We had lunch one day in the garden by the river which was also great. The owners were brilliant when the kettle didn't work properly, getting us a new one within 40 minutes! St Savinien is a beautiful location with the river, a 12th Century church, a good range of local shops, a railway station (40 mins to La Rochelle) and a new supermarket. Overall a wonderful week's holiday - you won't regret staying here.

Wonderful house in lovely surroundings

Lovely old French townhouse in pretty Saint Savinien. We had a relaxing time - swimming, kayaking and paddle boarding on the river. The house was perfect for us - the downstairs bedroom was cooler in the heat but the upstairs main bedroom is so pretty and the bath overlooking the river wonderful. We loved the riverside garden but wouldn’t have found it easy with younger children. Would also have benefited from some easier access to the river - a little jetty maybe. Small town perfect for our needs - boulangerie near the town bridge fantastic/ Bar barrage good for low key food. Île d’oleron has lovely beaches on west coast. All in all a great base for holiday. Thank you

A beautiful house in a lovely area

We were very happy with the house which was beautiful, well furnished and comfortable. The garden on the river Charente was well shaded by a very large weeping willow and it was a lovely cool and relaxing place to be on our 2 record hot days (40 degrees.) We could use the owners' canoes and the children, aged 12 and 14 loved it. The garden was at the front of the house and across a small quiet one- way street. We dealt mostly with Debbie in the admin of renting the property. She was very efficient and also helped us to postpone our holiday twice (Covid) at no extra cost so we finally had our 2020 holiday in 2022! When the gas canister for the kitchen stove ran out of gas we phoned Debbie and Debbie's husband Alan came out immediately to fit a new canister. Amazingly fast service! So to sum up we were very pleased with our stay in St Savinien.

A property with everything and more...

We really felt at home and comfortable in this house. The rooms are very large with high ceilings which makes you feel like you are living in a vast space. The modern, well-stocked kitchen includes high quality appliances. Bathrooms are also very modern and bright. The decor is subdued and in good taste. We appreciated the period furniture which goes so well with the overall look. The recent renovation is excellent. The pleasant owners, Debbie and Alan, who live nearby, quickly responded to any of our questions or concerns in a very helpful manner. The garden area on the Charente river was peaceful and relaxing. We had delightful meals outdoors here. Saint Savinien is a friendly, quaint town with shops and stores for all our needs. We enjoyed walking around the town and area. The train station is an convenient five minute walk away. We took the train to Rochefort and Saintes - an easy, pleasant way to travel. There are many good to excellent restaurants nearby. We liked everything about this property so well - the house, the owners. the town and area that we could have stayed longer.

Saint Sevinien

A very beautiful, sympathetically updated house of character. this type of property has grandeur and all the little foibles and quirks of an old house. Creaky floors and original window fittings, some which open, some which might not. A three story house with an old winding wooden staircase, and wooden floors throughout, we did get a few splinters ! Modern bathrooms a plenty, and a good well equipped modern kitchen. Loads of bedroom and bathroom space, and lots of added things such as board games, fans, hairdryer etc. The lounge was lovely and looked out onto the river with a relaxed bright feel to it. Huge dining table great for a big family and sharing food. We must not forget the canoes, life jackets and large floats which were in the garage for our use. The girls had the best time playing in those. We loved our stay in this beautiful part of France and spent a lot of time either on, or in the river with the children. The owners were helpful and there when needed. Only one small thing would be to maybe invest in updating the garden area, and if there was a small deck with a way of accessing the river more easily from the garden it would have been perfect for us. Regardless, we loved our stay and will be back.

La maison est très agréable, chacun à son espace .Le jardin est agréable au bord de l’eau mais nous avons pris peu de repas sur la terrasse car il y n’y a pas d’accès direct : la cuisine étant à l’étage, il faut descendre un escalier puis traverser une petite route pour y accéder.La région est très jolie.La communication avec Deborah et Alan a été très fluide.Nous avons passé une belle semaine de vacances !

Tolles Haus, super Lage

Wir haben den Aufenthalt in diesem wunderschönen Haus sehr genießen können. Es ist wirklich perfekt ausgestattet und lässt im Grunde keinerlei Wünsche offen. Der nette Sitzplatz an der Charente hat Charme. Die Umgebung lädt zum entdecken ein. Die schönen Strände sind ungefähr 50min entfernt. Mit den von den Eigentümern gestellten Kanus hatten wir zwei wunderbare Touren auf der Charente.

Es ist das schönste Ferienhaus, in dem wir jemals Urlaub gemacht haben. Es hat eine perfekte Ausstattung und jedes Zimmer ist toll und stilvoll eingerichtet. Der Garten direkt am Fluss ist traumhaft und wir haben die kurzen Wege zum Bäcker, zur Kneipe an der Ecke und zum Super U genossen.

Un endroit de rêve

L’endroit est superbe, la maison, très grande, très agréable, et bien décorée. Il ne manque rien pour que l’on passe un moment merveilleux dans cette endroit superbe . Une seule chose était regrettable: il n’était pas mentionné que 3 des chambres , se trouvaient au deuxième étage, or nous étions avec 3personnes qui avait dépassé les 80 ans et avaient par conséquent de grandes difficultés à accéder à ces pièces. Malgré ce petit inconvénient, nous garderons un excellent souvenir de ce séjour avec une seule envie: y revenir
