Chez Broche is a rural escape blending rustic charm with comfort and space for all the family. Fish, swim or take the boat on the beautiful private lake. Shop at local markets, enjoy a farm to table lifestyle and spend tranquil evenings watching the sunset over the lake. Slow living surrounded by nature. Perfect for food lovers.
Great for families looking for space, comfort and a slower pace of life.
Perfectly positioned in a small hamlet surrounded by fields and tall trees, Chez Broche is ideally placed to enjoy visits to Bordeaux, Cognac, the Medieval City of Confolens and the Dordogne region, but far enough away to escape the crowds and enjoy the tranquil escape that south western France can offer. The farmhouse is ideal for families and has all the facilities modern families enjoy, including indoor and outdoor games, woods to explore, large terraces for dining and a swimming pool overlooking the lake. A real retreat to escape to with all the home comforts. In The local village of Montemboeuf you can find a boulangerie where you can take morning trips for bread and pastries, freshly baked each morning. Visit incredible Chateau, celebrate local culture at festivals, eat crepes in the beautiful Chateau town of LaRochefoucauld, the local Limosine steak, seafood, or even snails. Families will love visiting the many local activities including sailing, horseriding, the lakeside Adventure Park at lac Haute de Charante or simply enjoy the sunshine relax and watch the children fishing in the lake.

A beautifully decorated, immaculate and very well equipped house. Plenty of space for a big group. Grounds are spacious and private. We had a great week!

We are happy your holiday met with your expectations and you had a great time. Thank you for booking Chez Broche.
Nous avons passé une merveilleuse semaine de vacances cet été, dans la magnifique maison de Linda et Stuart qui se sont montrés très sympathiques, accueillants et prévenants. La maison est très spacieuse, très propre, très agréable à vivre et nous y avons séjourné à 12 sans aucune difficulté. La propriété est belle, avec la jolie vue sur le bois et le lac. Enfin la piscine a été très appréciée par tous. C'est une location dont nous garderons un excellent souvenir et que nous recommandons vivement.
Der Platz ist wunderschön und ruhig gelegen, das Haus ist groß und liebevoll eingerichtet, der Pool super, Linda und Stewart sind perfekte Gastgeber, 100 von 100 Punkten, hier willst du nicht wieder weg

About the host
Hosted by Stuart Petts
Stuart worked as a builder for many years, and I was a nurse. Together, we’ve spent the last 8 years lovingly creating Chez Broche as a tranquil escape in the French countryside.
A place to slow down, unwind, and enjoy long, relaxed evenings surrounded by nature. Whether it’s morning coffee by the lake or a glass of wine as the sun sets, everything here is designed to help you switch off and recharge.
