Why they chose this property

Where else can you relax, maybe have a barbecue by the river, after a day of soaking up the sun! And when you've recharged your batteries you will discover that Voulême is ideally situated between the ancient market towns of Civray, Ruffec & Sauze Vaussais, all 3 of which hold local producer markets, where all sorts, from fresh local produce & delicacies to original artwork, jewelry & gifts can be bought. The historical Cities of Poitiers, Angoulême & Niort are equidistant & guests can day-trip to the seaside at La Rochelle or Châtelaillon-Plage. Other popular day-trips include Futuroscope, Cognac, Monkey Valley, Montmorillon & many more!

What makes this property unique

Mon Repos benefits from being right on a branch of the Charente river & with its mature gardens, magnificent weeping willow & double aspect veranda, you really do feel as if you're at one with nature, whilst at the same time, being in the heart of the historic village. Traversed by the Romans, at the old ford "gué de chambe", until they constructed the bridge, which remains to this day with picturesque views of the old moulin, visitors will feel as though they've stepped back in time. Mon Repos sits within the grounds of an ancient monastery, the original, drystone walled garden giving testament to this. Nowadays we have the modern church as our neighbour (remodeled 15th century!), the idea of which hadn't yet been conceived when the original part of our property was built, many moons ago. It was erected adjoining the side of our ancient dwelling & here they both still sit, centuries on, sharing our riverside paradise, & a very special alleyway...
