This lovingly restored five-bedroom traditional Charentaise Maison de Maitre, is decorated in cool, fresh colours complemented by beautiful furniture and fittings, available by negotiation.

Entering the house from the outdoor dining area, the huge open plan living room, dining space and kitchen area is bright and airy, flooded with light from the large windows.

At one end is the well-designed fitted kitchen with all the essentials to rustle up a quick breakfast or hearty dinner and a useful island for preparation.There’s also a laundry room and a walk-in pantry. The room’s central area is occupied by a large dining table and chairs for 10 diners.

Opposite the kitchen is the sitting area with cream leather sofas positioned around a stunning restored fireplace – and the television.  This is the perfect relaxing place to escape the heat of the sun or curl up on a cool evening.

In fact this super holiday home is perfect for family holidays in the cooler months with open fires, underfloor heating and central heating upstairs.

Also on the ground floor is a spacious double bedroom – perfect if holidaying with grandparents – with another stunning fireplace and a family bathroom.

Upstairs there are four further bedrooms – two large doubles both with plenty of room for a cot and two twins – all light and bright in the daytime with shutters that ensure darkness for sleeping.

Both the doubles benefit from modern en-suite facilities, one has a bath and seperate shower and the other a shower room.

The twin bedrooms are perfect for children. The larger one has a small en-suite shower room.
