What's nearby

  • My dad's friend owns a really cool karting circuit in Pageas, a few kilometres from Chalus where I grew up in France. They are both hunters. I know this is not everyone's cup of tea, but a lot of people from that generation in rural France do like hunting, fishing, fetching mushrooms. There are woodlands all around the karting circuit. My dad and his friend have built some platforms in the trees, and from mid-October to mid-November they go there every morning to shoot migrating birds. Those ones are some sort of wood pigeons going from Eastern Europe / Russia to North Africa. I did my own shooting that morning... with my camera! The sunrise was spectacular with some nice pink colours and mist in the valley.

Parfait pour des vacances avec un grand groupe. La maison est grande, il y a des espaces pour chacun.Il y’a tout l’équipement nécessaire et plus autant pour la cuisine que pour les loisirs. La piscine est petite mais largement suffisante. Cerise sur le gâteau la maison est fraîche.

Séjour, maison et propriétaire très agréables

Maison spacieuse (nous étions 4 adultes, 2 adolescents et un jeune enfant), piscine de taille très suffisante pour se rafraîchir avec les enfants, barbecue très efficace, jardin agréable et spacieux. John est très sympathique et disponible, et l'emplacement offre de nombreuses activités touristiques et sportives. Un bémol sur la propreté qui doit être améliorée (tiroirs de vaisselle, poussière, objets divers sous le canapé et les lits) ainsi que pour la précision de l'annonce qui faisait figurer le linge de toilette et le savon qui ne sont en fait pas fournis. Nous avons passé 10 jours très agréables dans la maison de John, que nous recommandons sans réserve pour des vacances familiales.

Vacances sympathiques loin de la foule

Tres jolie et grande maison, beaucoup d’activités et visites à faire dans ce coin de France peu prisé par les touristes. Une petit bémol sur la propreté (par exemple mégots de cigarettes laissés par les précédents locataires partout dans l’allée, et nettoyage général un peu succinct à mon goût), l’endroit est assez paumé mais il y a du passage sur la route et les chambres donnent toutes coté rue, à prendre en compte pour les personnes ayant le sommeil léger. La gentillesse et la disponibilité de l’hôte et de “son équipe” sur place ont permis d’oublier ces points négatifs. Merci, nous avons passé une excellente semaine.

Retrouvailles entre générations

Séjour en famille très agréable, la grandeur des chambres permet à chacun son espace, et le grand salon des soirées pour nous retrouver. La cuisine est très bien équipée et nous a facilité les repas en collectivité ! Merci à John pour sa disponibilité, et à Martha pour sa réactivité et son acharnement à traiter l’eau de la piscine ! 😉

Genieten van rust en natuur

Ideale woning om te genieten van de rustige omgeving, daguitstappen te doen naar Angoulème, Brantome, Aubeterre en anderen. Lekkere restaurants dichtbij. Goed bereikbaar. Woning zelf is ruim, ideaal om er met meerdere kleine kinderen naartoe te gaan en toch te kunnen uitslapen. John vlot bereikbaar en steeds paraat met tips. Een aanrader!

Un havre de paix

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cette belle ferme restaurée. L’équipement est top et la literie excellente. La proximité des commerces est un vrai plus. Un endroit idéal pour se retrouver en famille ou entre amis. Il fait bon se reposer dans cet endroit bucolique et s’enrichir de ses fabuleux environs.
