Frequently asked questions
About the host
Your host
We are both retired teachers (maths and English). Sarah is of British origin and Jean Pierre is French. We bought the house in a run down state and it has been our project over the past five years. The renovation of the ground floor is complete, next winter we will tackle the "attic" to add more bedrooms.
Why they chose this property
We ourselves live about 20 Minutes away from the house. The house is situated in a very charming spot, a stream runs just 100 meters from the house. The Charente river is only a few minutes away. You only need to hop on a bike, cycle for a few minutes, take the (free) boat to cross the river and you will be in the pretty village of Chaniers with its shops, church and beach (river swimming)
What makes this property unique
The house is typical of the region but with a new extension. It is very sunny, spacious (120m2) with a garden on three levels. There are several terraces all of which get the sun all day long.
