About this property

A stunning 17th century manor house

La Fuie is a beautiful manor house set in 11 acres of Charentais countryside. The house itself has 7 extremely large ensuite bedrooms, a large lounge and a breakfast room and formal dining room. There is a terrace for outside eating. The large kitchen is well resourced with a large range style stove . As well as the accommodation in the house , there is a gite which sleeps 4 people. The house and gite have been recently re decorated and re furnished to a high standard. There is a swimming pool within a walled area with a beautiful bar area for outside eating and entertainment. The grounds have woodland, a river and play equipment for young and old to enjoy.
The house and gite would be ideal for a large group or family and will sleep up to 22 people, so perfect for a holiday with a number of families joining together. The cost is dependant on the number of guests staying during the rental which will be clear on the quotation. A rental for a total number of guests over 20 will incur a slight increase in cost.
The house now also has available for rental, a beautifully converted barn for social gatherings, ideal for small wedding receptions, mini conferences, yoga retreats, art and craft workshops etc. It has a bar area, a large cinema screen is available, and it can accommodate up to 50/60 dining guests. Please ask for more details if you are interested in renting the barn and it's facilities in addition to the house.
La Fuie is found 3km from the village of Brioux Sur Boutonne. There are a number of fantastic things to do within the area including a visit to the Marais Poitevin , Futuroscope, Zoology Park, and the coast, with some stunning beaches, is just under an hour away.
Please note that for the majority of the year, we do accept bookings of 2+nights which allows for weekend gatherings etc but during the Summer season the house is only available to rent for weekly bookings.

Fabulous La Fuie 10/10

Managing the needs and expectations of a party of 17, aged from 4 to 80, could be a tall order but in beautiful La Fuie we were so lucky to find the perfect choice. From our warm welcome onwards from Sarah with a tour of the extraordinary range of facilities - great kitchen, lovely pool, hot tub a real hit with the younger members and wine cooler much appreciated by the older! All this and set in the most beautiful grounds with some picturesque market towns within easy reach one could not have found a better place to celebrate ones 80th. Is it too early to book for my 90th?John

An incredible weekend!

Thank you so much for letting us stay to celebrate this important birthday! The house is absolutely incredible, the garden is huge and the pool area extremely agreeable. We enjoyed our stay immensely. Sarah, her husband and her brother were extremely welcoming and helped us setup the ambiance around the pool. An incredible stay, thanks to the hard work they have put in the house!

Absolutely Amazing! 5*

We stayed here for a family gathering for my father-in-law's 70th (23 people incl. kids). The property is beautiful - the pictures do not do it justice. Sarah was the kindest and most attentive host and goes out of the way to make your stay the best. The pool area and bar area are brilliant and the grounds are extensive. The house is extremely well equipped. We loved every minute here and would thoroughly recommend!

The most lovely house in the French country side

Sophie was an outstanding host! The house was beautiful (even better than in the pictures) with plenty of space and activities. Sophie and her husband have thought of every single detail and have build an amazing property were you feel at home. There is not a single negative thing I can think about, I strongly recommend!

Excellent Accommodation, Wonderful Hosts.

We stayed as a party of 10 for a 50th Birthday celebration weekend. The house itself has a real wow factor, with very large bedrooms and up to date en-suites. The location is very quiet, perfect for a relaxing stay. The pool area is impressive, the pictures don't really do it justice. What really made our stay special was the help and attention we received from our hosts, Sarah & Tom. They went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure we had a great time. Sarah and Tom provided evening meals twice for us, the quality of which was easily on par with a good restaurant. They also acted as an impromptu taxi service to get us to airports and restaurants. We'll definitely be back.

Je conserverais bien ce lieu secret mais cela serait ingrat pour les hôtes Sarah et Tom qui ont été formidables avec nous.

Abi’s birthday French escape

In a word, ‘fabulous’ the place itself is an exquisitely curated home we all wish we could live in forever. It has clearly been a labour of love; and it shows in all the details. From the individual bedrooms and reception rooms to simply stunning pool area. The hosts couldn’t be more helpful and a accommodating, nothing was too much trouble and they were on hand with helpful suggestions for things to do or places to visit. Sarah provided a sumptuous meal for Abi for her birthday for 19 of us (and help me keep it secret until the last moment)! I am now looking for excuses to get groups of people to go to France so I can visit again. Utterly fabulous!!!

Nothing short of fabulous!

Just arrived home from the best week at La Fuie. The hosts Sarah, Tom and Mike were truly amazing and gave our family the best weeks holiday! From the beautiful house, the grounds, pool area and Sarah’s wonderful cooking, we could not have asked for more! We had 4 young children, a puppy and 10 adults and the house was perfect fit, bedrooms and social areas all very spacious! Pool area was fab, has a bar, hot tub and you can close off whilst you’re in there so you’re secure. Sarah did everything for us, booking vineyard tour, cooking meals, sorting the Vet etc, nothing is too much trouble and they thought of all the little details to make your trip memorable! We cannot thank you enough and cannot wait to come back to what was truly a very special place! Thank you!

The best service and stay we have ever had!

I cannot express how wonderful our stay at La Fuie was. Not only because the house and grounds exceeded our expectations, but because Sarah, Tom and Mike went above and beyond to ensure our trip was one to remember forever. La Fuie was even more magical in real life than the photographs show, the house has been so well looked after to such a lovely standard, every room is beautifully decorated, most with en-suites, and spotlessly clean. We felt like we were staying in a magical French chateau! The rest of the grounds were idyllic, especially the walled pool area! The photographs do not do it justice, the pool has been renovated to create the most tranquil and luxurious space with pool bar and hot tub! We spent our entire time outside and felt so relaxed it was like paradise. The villa is in complete privacy so we felt free to enjoy our holiday uninterrupted and enjoy the amazing place. Other than the house, Sarah did everything she could in the run up to our stay to liaise with me to plan every detail of our stay, she helped with organising airport transfers, helped us with groceries, activities for our stay such as a trip to a local vineyard and organising massages for our group, she cooked the most DELICIOUS food for us and did so many other little touches which just made us feel so cared for. I was totally blown away and cannot emphasise enough what fantastic service we were given it was unlike anywhere else I have EVER stayed, can't recommend enough!!!! THANK YOU! xx

Extraordinaire

Nous avons réservé 5 jours pour les 60 ans de mon mari. Nous étions 21 des grands parents aux petits enfants en passant par les oncles et tantes. Nous avons été accueillis par Sarah la propriétaire de manière chaleureuse. La maison, la dépendance, le domaine, tout est magnifique, propre, spacieux, très bien organisé et très bien décoré. Le salon est parfait pour accueillir tous les participants. Un feu de cheminée, un piano que nous avons utilisé avec plaisir car il y avait des pianistes parmi nous, une salle à manger parfaite. Nous avons tous pu parler sans qu’il y ait de résonance grâce aux poutres en bois au plafond sûrement. Nous n’avons pas profité de la piscine car en novembre … mais ce sera pour une autre fois car petits et grands rêvent de revenir. Encore merci Sarah et Tom
