Located in a small village nestled in the sunflower clad countryside with easy access to the A10 motorway, we are less than 8 hours’ drive from Calais, 5.5 hours from Le Havre and 4 hours from St Marlo.
With flexibility to accommodate parties of 2 to 14 people, this is a great place for families large and small or friends who wish to holiday together. The location is ideally situated to access many attractions within an hour’s drive including West Coast Beaches, La Rochelle, Cognac, Niort, Poitiers, National Parks and Futuroscope.
Each Gite is presented with its own individual character and finished to a high standard of comfort to make your holiday a home from home experience. Each gite has a lounge with both French and English (Freesat) TV and free WIFI. The kitchens are all fully equipped to ensure that you have everything you need. And a private, secure garden with both lounging and dining areas and a gas barbeque.
There is a 6m x 12m heated swimming pool, communal dining and lounging areas as well as a games area for boules or croquet. The site is secure with electric gates. There is off-road parking for each gite.
Local amenities are just 5 minutes’ drive away Co-op, pharmacy, and post office. Large supermarkets are located to the north (12 minutes’ drive) and to the south (20 minutes’ drive).
The owners live on site with their two small friendly dogs to ensure that you receive a personal welcome on arrival and to ensure the site is maintained in a pristine condition throughout your stay.
Wisteria is a two-bedroom three star rated Gite that has been furnished to a high standard. Whilst small and compact this gite offers comfort and coziness and has its own private secluded garden to the rear.
Downstairs has an open plan lounge/diner with fully fitted kitchen. There is both French and English TV (Freesat), a DVD player and a music docking station. There is free WiFi on site offering the best connection that French country living can offer.

Upstairs there are two bedrooms and a shower room with sink and WC. The main bedroom has a king-size double bed and wardrobes. The second bedroom is equipped with full sized Ikea bunk beds suitable for children or teenagers.

Lovely gîte, fantastic location, the hosts were very friendly and couldn't have been more helpful, but not intrusive, I stayed there with my daughter and grandson for a week, the only negative thing I could say is that we didn't have longer.

Glad you enjoyed your stay with us, and you enjoyed the Gite and Pool. It was a pleasure to meet you all. Hope to host you again in the future
The accommodation was absolutely fantastic, and the hosts David & Linda we just brilliant, friendly and helpful throughout our stay!
We had some friends come out to stay for a long weekend during the middle of our stay, and they were very impressed. They even they said that they would come back here any time. They absolutely loved it.
We managed to see some of the Rugby world cup games down in Bordeaux, when we were there, and whilst away the ladies lounged by the pool.
We can not recommend this highly enough.
It was just like a home from Home for two weeks.
I would just like to finish by saying a really big thank you to David and Linda for being such fabulous hosts.
We wish we could stay longer!

Andy and Julie were ideal guests. Communication before the visit was easy and Andy was very responsive. They kept the Gite clean and tidy and we barely knew they were there.. Thankyou for being a pleasure to host
Première impression: Waoww!!
Le cadre est magnifique!!
Le logement est hyper bien aménagé et pensé. Et d'une propreté immaculée. Ils ont pensé à tout!!! Pour avoir déjà fait plusieurs locations c'est jusqu'à maintenant le mieux que l'on est fait.
Les plus selon moi et nos besoins (famille avec 2 enfants de moins de 3ans)
Vous y retrouverez des électroménagers de grande qualité. Un frigo de grande capacité idéal pour les familles.
Tout le nécessaire pour fonctionner (vaisselles, ustensiles, draps, ect...)
Des barrières de sécurité pour les escaliers.
Et pour une maniaque comme moi TOUT le nécessaire pour le nettoyage.
Les plus de l’extérieur (commun):
Les installations de jeu pour enfants (le cabanon et le toboggan ont fait le plaisir de mon fils).
La piscine chauffée, sécurisée, l'espace est commun mais son aménagement permet à tous de profiter sans soucis.
Les espaces communs sont très bien aménagés: avec plusieurs petits coins où se poser
(Privé):
Il y a des extérieurs privatisés (avec brises vues) pour chaque logement ce qui garanti l'intimité de tous
Les barbecues pour chaque logement,
Les salons de jardins, les transats et cette vue incroyable qui appelle au repos.
L’aménagement intérieur comme extérieur est extraordinaire
Les hôtes sont adorables, d'une gentillesse incroyable, ils sont réactifs et à l'écoute tout en étant d'une discrétion appréciable. Ils ont deux petits chiens que les enfants ont beaucoup aimé.
On a savouré notre séjour
On reviendra

Iris et sa famille ont apprécié l’emplacement tranquille et nos installations sur place. Les enfants étaient de belles petites personnes et utilisaient la piscine presque tous les jours. À la fin de leur séjour parmi nous, ils ont laissé le gîte dans un état impeccable, ce qui est grandement apprécié. Nous avons tous hâte de les accueillir à nouveau bientôt car ce fut un plaisir absolu de les avoir à rester.
