The property is situated in a small hamlet between Sauzé-Vaussais and the historic town of Melle, an hour from La Rochelle, Poitiers and Angouleme. Chaignepain is ideal for cycling and walking along meandering lanes past small vineyards, fields of sunflowers and maize, taking in panoramic views of the region. The way of life in this area is so rural and unhurried that it gives the impression of going back through time. The total absence of any light pollution, means that at night you can look up to an astonishingly crisp and clear sky and enjoy a glorious display of stars. Chaignepain is very well placed for visits to Cognac, La Rochelle, Ile de Re, Chauvigny, Venise-verte, Futuroscope at Poitiers and the local historic town of Melle. We benefit from living in the region that is recognised as the 2nd sunniest in France.

A relaxing week at Rove

Fiona,Stephen&James West Yorkshire
Review Submitted: September 21, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We have just returned from a weeks stay at Rove.

The accommodation is excellent and has been renovated to a very high standard, the best we have stayed in, in France. It was very clean and had everything you needed.

Mike and Tania were very helpful, nothing was too much trouble.

Our son was never out of the swimming pool. He enjoyed the table tennis, swings and the animals, especially the rabbits.

It was a very relaxing place to stay. The stars at night were amazing.

A fantastic place to stay!

Louise, Charlie & Alice England
Review Submitted: July 20, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
I have just returned from a week's stay at La Chevrerie with my children and was really pleased that I decided to book the Poitevine gite.

From the moment we arrived we were made to feel incredibly welcome by both Mike and Tania, along with their son, Keenan. The gite was well equipped with personal touches that made it feel really homely. The standard of accommodation is superb and the fact that Mike and Tania have designed and built everything themselves makes it all the more special - they really should be proud of their efforts.

My children are aged 9 and 11 and there was plenty of activities on offer for them... the good sized swimming pool (heated!), table tennis, bikes, and my daughter loved looking after the animals, especially the baby rabbits!

The local area has many attractions, including some great markets, historical sites, along with some stunning countryside which we enjoyed cycling around - Mike and Tania were more than happy to loan us their bikes.

We really loved our stay and were sad to leave... my daughter in particular as she wanted to take a couple of rabbits with her! I would definitely rebook La Chevrerie if I am to visit this part of France again... which no doubt I will..!

A big thank you to Mike, Tania and Keenan for their wonderful hospitality.

We had a great family holiday at La Chevrerie. Excellent accomadation,so clean and welcoming.

Great size garden for the children to play in which was lovely and safe for them. Plus a swimming pool which was a good fun.

Thank you for a lovely holiday.

Relaxation is the key.

Gerorgina,Richard Jas and Cam Wareham, Dorset
Review Submitted: June 4, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
From the outset, communication with Mike and Tania was great and very informative.
On arrival we were made to feel very welcome and the pictures certainly show the beautiful characteristics of the Gites.
We stayed in Rove which was very clean with all the facilities needed.
Having to children aged 10 and 7 there was plenty to keep them entertained they loved feeding the ducks, geese and chickens and were
thrilled when they we allowed in the pens the help put the animals to bed.
The swimming pool area was very clean and secure, with an alarm for safety.
The surrounding area had stunning scenery and the short drive to the nearby town of Melle was perfect for a stroll around the local shops and the supermarkets.

quiet home from

Review Submitted: May 22, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2007
Val & Paul
Broadstone Dorset

We spent a thoroughly enjoyable time at Rove cottage. No need to leave the complex if you don't want to there is everything for a quiet relaxing holiday. Great for children they can have a wonderful time in the pool, which is completely safe and fully alarmed. There are also ducklings and chicks to fee
The cottages are extremely comfortable, well equipped and spotlessly clean and the welcome packs the best we have ever had on any holiday.
The surrounding countryside is fairly flat which makes it ideal for walking and cycling(there are bikes you can use at the cottages) Mike and Tania found nothing to much trouble and were very hospitable hosts.
Well worth a further visit.
