Super cute villa in the countryside. The room was gorgeous and surpassed our expectations. Nice simple breakfast with super fresh bread from the nearby bakery.
We enjoyed this stay very much. Such a nice and hospitable family that made you feel welcome.
It shows that they have made their place with a clear vision and great taste.
Thank you for letting us enjoy your place - even for just a day.
We had no pets, so, I couldn't say. We had an apartment with all the facilities. Lovely and spacious. Fabulous bed.
The Owners were super. Lovely people. A very quaint village. Not much to see as the season was closed. Outdoor pool and lovely gardens. Would stay there again.
What an amazing tranquil place run by the loveliest family. If you are looking for an incredibly comfortable, quiet location in which to step out of the rat race, then this is it.Convenient for Cognac. Nothing is too much bother and the hosts make you feel like a real family guest. Great food if you request dinner. Incredible value.
Rapide passage mais qui.nous a permis d apprécier la qualité de l accueil chaleureux des propriétaires, le calme et le confort de la chambre et de prendre un savoureux repas .
Très chouette escale sur notre parcours de vacances : le gîte TÊTE À L’AIR est très chaleureux et très joliment décoré. Nous avons bien dormi dans une excellente literie, et avons été accueillies de manière très serviable. Coup de cœur sur les espaces communs du gîte avec une ludothèque incroyable et de nombreux jeux de société à disposition
Séjour très agréable permettant de faire une agréable pause grand jardin, prêt de jeux et excellente table d'hôte.
A conseiller et à recommander !
Merci pour votre accueil !
Séjour très agréable, logement mignon et fonctionnel
Parties communes bien équipées
Petit plus pour la salle de jeux pour petits et grands!
Nous reviendrons 👍
