In the heart of the prestigious Grande Champagne vineyards, this former distillery building has been transformed into a spacious 2-bedroom gîte – perfect for a family with children or two couples of friends.
Located just 10 minutes from Cognac, it’s a peaceful and friendly countryside base to discover the Charente.
A historic estate
L’Ancienne Distillerie is made up of 4 gîtes, once the buildings of a traditional Cognac distillery. Each one is independent and not overlooked, offering the perfect balance between convivial group living and private space. Guests share the large swimming pool, games room and beautifully landscaped gardens.

Inside, you’ll find a large open-plan living area with lounge, dining space and fully equipped kitchen – perfect for spending quality time with family or friends.
The gîte includes 1 double bedroom (King size 160 cm bed), 1 twin bedroom and 1 bathroom with shower and toilet.
French doors open onto your private terrace with barbecue and outdoor furniture, ideal for sunny lunches or unforgettable summer evenings.
Leisure and relaxation
Children will love the swings, slide and large green spaces, while everyone can enjoy the games room with table tennis, table football and a pool table. The secure 13m x 6m pool, surrounded by loungers and parasols, is the perfect place to cool off and relax.
Included for your comfort

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 come right up to our boundaries and cover the gentle rolling hills and lead down into the picturesque river valley. After the renovations the house has blue shutters. We have the dream and we are happy to share it with you.
