CHARENTE - MARITIME

The Region:

Thanks to its "micro-climate", the Charente-Maritime is the second sunniest region of France, with 2,600 hours of sunshine per year. It also has five hundred kilometres of Atlantic coastline with almost a hundred sun-drenched beaches of fine golden sand in a region adorned with traditional low houses of red tiled roofs and attractive Charentaise stonework, blooming hollyhocks, picturesque ports with seafood restaurants and sidewalk cafés.

 

LA GARENNE GITES

A Charentaise farmhouse with four gîtes, a pool, and surrounded by attractive grounds. Situated in the Charente-Maritime near the market town of Aulnay.

The property is made up of four gîtes all with their own individual styles and personalities. Recently renovated and converted, they have retained some of the features of the original property such as oak beams and exposed stonework. They are comfortably furnished with a blend of traditional Charentaise items and pine furniture. Walls are painted with gentle creamy-yellow walls, and there are tiled floors in the living and kitchen areas, and wood floors in the bedrooms. They offer all modern conveniences such as gas oven, microwave, large fridge and they each have their own washing machine and stereo/CD system.

All the gîtes have their own garden furniture including sun umbrellas and barbeques. They lead into a fully enclosed garden which offers plenty of recreational activities: a large sandpit, swings, a treehouse, table tennis, badminton, a boule area and 1 acre-field of rough grass for football, sports or just star-gazing! A variety of trees, including Cherries, Peaches and Apples offer fruits and shade.
