About this property

1830's Village Farmhouse - Shared Pool, Games Barn, Leisure Field. Beach 30 mins

La Fermette France is one of a cluster of 4 character gites in South Western France..

The old farmhouse is full of character with huge original Charentaise fireplaces , original wooden floors throughout, oak beams, and exposed stone walls.

It’s quirky layout includes a ground floor double bedroom with open plan ensuite bathroom with fab roll top bath.

The large family kitchen with 5 ring hob and oven, hob kettle, toaster, microwave, coffee machine, washing machine, and large farmhouse table that seats up to 10!.
The huge sitting room has two comfy settees anda door to garden. The TV (UK Freeview channels) and DVD player are hidden discreetly in a corner cupboard. There is a good selection of DVD's and books for all ages, small toys and crayons.

The family shower room is on the ground floor (ideal if you have difficulty with stairs).

A beautiful artisan made oak staircase leads from the salon to a large landing bedroom with 3 single beds and a door providing access to the large master bedroom with comfortable king size bed and en suite toilet (great for those night time trips to the loo). As there are 3 single beds in the first floor bedroom, we are able to cater for families with 3 children who all prefer to sleep in the same room. We can also accommodate to 2 babies in a cots -which we can provide on a complementary basis.

In the garden is a charcoal BBQ plus tables, chairs and parasol, and when the sun is too hot to sit outside there is an open barn opposite providing welcome shade for dining. The open barn is exclusive to the farmhouse (and not shared with other guests).

You also have access to the 10m x 5m shared pool, and games barn with table tennis, table football, a selection of adult and children's bikes, 2 body boards and bats and balls for the beach, plus some large toys. Behind the farmhouse is a leisure field with boules pitch and picnic bench where you can sit with a glass of wine and watch the sun go down or let the children run around to tire themselves out before bedtime. We encourage our guests to pick any fruits in season - cherries, peaches, pears, figs quince and walnuts.

All our gites at LaFermetteFrance have a beach umbrella and a cool bag with picnic plates, cutlery and freezer blocks. Pool/beach towels are not provided however, we appreciate that they take up valuable luggage space so if you prefer not to bring them with you they can be hired from us for a small fee (4 euros per towel to cover laundry).

Baby and toddler equipment is available on request at no charge - high chair, booster seat, travel cot, changing mat, toilet training seat, toilet step etc., just ask.



There is ample space for social distancing as each gite has it's own separate garden, there is both hard standing and a large lawn around the swimming pool, and the leisure field provides even more space .

The Farmhouse has very generous sized rooms so it's big enough for families holidaying together, although it's also possible to book any of our other gites too if you prefer.

Please note that we are flexible with arrival and departure days so that you can take advantage of cheaper mid week ferry fares and flights, as long as you stay for a minimum of 5 nights in the Farmhouse. Our nearest ferry port is St Malo (4 hours drive) whilst Caen and Le Havre avre are around 6 hours and Calais 8 hours+ . Bordeaux and La Rochelle airports are 1 hrs drive.

Sorry, but we do not accept pets of any kind for the comfort of other guests who may have allergies .

Magnificent stay in the French countryside.
We enjoyed our hosts immensely -- always helpful, full of fantastic suggestions for local things to try and to do - from night markets, wineries, to beaches and more! The pool was so nice to come home to, and we didn't have enough time to try all the games, bikes, and things available on site! It felt like home away from home in a region of France that is so relaxed, friendly, and welcoming. We were very grateful for our time there. Thanks to Leslie and Felix.

A gem of a place to enjoy the best of both worlds..... Rest or explore or both!!
We spent five wonderful days at La Fermette. This little gem of a place is perfect to just chill out and take in the relaxed atmosphere about the place or make the most of the beautiful towns/villages that are within easy reach.The decor, with its shabby chic style offers a relaxed aura and the moment you arrive you feel you are away from it all!! We visited nearby towns/villages, enjoyed the lovely restaurants, markets and vineyards and we were glad to sample our local purchases of vino and chill in the evenings. We stayed at the farmhouse which was very well equipped. Our room was well furnished and spacious with a very comfortable double bed and very tastefully decorated. The vast kitchen very well equipped too. Too much to do in very little time we could not take advantage of the bikes that are available and a game or two of table tennis which I would have enjoyed. That said, we look forward to returning to La Fermette in the not too distant future. Felix and Lesley, a big thank you. We absolutely loved your little 'corner' of France.

Fabulous holiday gite
We had a fabulous holiday at La Fermette. The peace and quiet was just what we wanted. The recommendations for bars and restaurants was really helpful. The folder giving information about the area and suggested activities and destinations was really well put together. We made use of the bikes, the table tennis and table football. We also really enjoyed the spring wine festival at Blaye that was recommended. The hosts went above and beyond what we had expected to make our stay enjoyable. We had a super time at La Fermette. Thank you for all the useful information and help with our adventure!

Wonderful farmhouse in a stunning rural setting
We stayed for a long weekend with a large group of friends/university reunion/birthday gathering - the facilities were perfect and there was plenty to entertain us including the games room with ping pong table, the large firepit, bat and ball sets, countryside for morning runs, private garden area for sunset watching, bicycles, a large barn for alfresco style dining and Pinot Cognac vineyards nearby! Our stay was very well organised with an informative pre-stay email, very easy driving directions from Bordeaux airport and stress-free check in details. We would highly recommend the property to others - either as a large group or as a couple since there is a range of accommodation on the plot from a large farmhouse with a well-equipped kitchen and living space to romantic studio style accommodation and cosy self-contained mezzanine apartments. The decor is shabby chic with plenty of charming cottage features to keep you intrigued! Thank you Lesley and Felix for a memorable weekend :-)

verblijf met 2 gezinnen in la fermette
Een gezellige, goed ingerichte woning met goed uitgeruste keuken zonder vaatwas. Tijdens extreem warme dagen bleef de woning goed koel. De overdekte schuur die bij het huis hoort is voorzien van een extra koelkast en zorgt dat je bij regenweer of hitte toch buiten kan zitten. Het zwembad is netjes en groot genoeg. Er zijn fietsen voorzien waarmee je naar de bakker en een kleine supermarkt kan. Voor uitstappen en grotere inkopen moet je de wagen nemen. Kajakken op de gironde is een aanrader om met kinderen te doen. De hosts zijn supervriendelijk en staan altijd klaar!
