L'Ecurie used to be a stable and now it's a spacious studio apartment with country style kitchenette and wet room, like a boutique hotel room, but better (we think !). It's one of a cluster of 4 individually styled character gites at La Fermette France, based in the sunny Poitou Charente region of South Western France (check our La Fermette France website) which share a 10mx5m pool, a Games Barn and a separate orchard field with boules pitch.
L'Ecurie feels really spacious with it's high ceiling and exposed pale honey coloured stone walls. The comfortable large double bed is discreetly hidden behind a screen. In addition to the well equipped alcove kitchenette there is a charcoal BBQ to cook your finds from the local market, although there are also lots of very good local restaurants if you prefer to eat out. The gravelled terrace is bordered by shrubs providing privacy, although the hamlet is so quiet you are unlikely to be disturbed by too much noise other than the odd tractor!
You will also have access to a Games Barn shared by other gites. In here you will find a selection of bikes to explore the country lanes or to cycle the 2.5km to the town of St Genis to collect the croissants and baguette for breakfast. There is also a table tennis, table football, body boards, boules and also buckets and spades for the beach to bring out the inner child in you and we also provide you with a beach umbrella…...
With your own separate gravel courtyard garden, a pool surrounded by hard standing and a large lawn plus the orchard field, there is plenty of space for as socially distanced holiday.
