About the host
Hosted by Valerie Husaunndee
Having moved to France in 2021 to spend more time together as a family, we are a couple in our late forties with 2 teenage children and a passion for exploring the world. We love meeting people, eating good food, sunshine, exploring the outdoors, walking, hiking and cycling and discovering beautiful new places on our gorgeous planet. Life motto - Life is too short to be unhappy!
Why they chose this property
We chose this property as we felt it perfectly match what we were looking to do; not too big that it was impersonal not too small that we would not be able to give our guests the space they needed. We felt that it was important for guests to decide what sort of holiday they wanted; peace, quiet and tranquillity or if they preferred to be able to join together with other guests to share events, games, BBQs and experiences. So we have created a mix of private areas and public areas around the site so people can escape or join in as they please. The property is also perfectly located for visits to Cognac town and visits to the local cognac producers, the coast and easily accessible from the Uk and Europe.
What makes this property unique
When I think about France I dream of blue shutters and grape vines Here the vines are all around and cover the gentle rolling hills and lead down into the picturesque river valley. We have the dream and we are happy to share it with you.
