Stylish Spacious Studio Apartment, with Shared Pool & Games Barn

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 leisure 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 looks out to the salon area and the garden beyond. In addition to the well equipped alcove kitchenette there is a charcoal BBQ to cook your finds from the local markets, 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, where you will find a selection of bikes to explore the country lanes, or maybe to cycle the 2km to the town of St Genis to collect croissants and baguettes 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'll 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 leisure field, there is plenty of space for as socially distanced holiday.

A wonderful find. A lovely studio holiday home in a secluded little hamlet. Spotlessly clean.
What a wonderful find. A perfect place to totally relax and unwind. It had everything we need for the the two of us. The owners gave us very clear directions to find it and were always available to contact, should we have needed them. Would recommend and wouldn't hesitate to return

Reposant et calme, no stress
Nous étions à la recherche d'un petit logement, "point de chute" pour les nuits, et nous avons trouvé "L’Écurie"... Petit coin de paradis, aménagé avec raffinement dans un ancien corps de ferme entièrement et parfaitement rénové, pleine campagne, l'endroit est parfait pour s'y ressourcer. A l'arrivée, dès qu'on ouvre les volets, on découvre un logement accueillant, chaleureux, paisible. Pour un couple, la cinquantaine, sans enfant..., l'écurie est plus spacieuse qu'on ne l'imagine en regardant les photos. Les rangements sont largement suffisants. Nous ne nous sommes pas bousculé dans la cuisine et nous avons pris nos repas du soir sur la terrasse (avec passage de chouette et petites chauves-souris). La literie était confortable et nous avons passé de bonnes nuits. WC, Douche italienne spacieuse: aucune critique Après avoir vécu des journées à +/- 30-35°, nous avons particulièrement apprécié la "fraîcheur de la pierre", les soirs, à notre retour. Toujours en ballades, à l'Ouest, la côte et l'estuaire de la Gironde sont riches en sites à visiter. Au Nord-Est, Pons, Cognac, Saintes sont aussi à visiter... Et après..., il était déjà l'heure de rentrer à la maison... En résumé, si vous hésitez à réserver ce site, un seul mot: "Foncez". En toute sincérité, l'endroit est Super !!!
