Why this location? | Set among vineyards and fields the property is wonderfully peaceful but only 5 minutes to the beautiful town of Pons. The sandy Atlantic beaches are 35 minutes away and the larger towns of Cognac and Saintes only 20 minutes. There is something for everyone within a short distance including just lazing around your private pool. |
Unique benefits of property | Enjoy the view of the donjon (chateau) in Pons from the gite garden or relax in your private outdoor lounge with small bar overlooking the pool. |
Only 5 minutes away ( by car) our local town of Pons. Here you will find all your amenities including several supermarkets and bakeries for your morning croissant. Relax in the beautiful square overlooking the Donjon (Chateau) whilst enjoying a drink in one of the cafe/bars. Walk through gardens and down the grand escalier (grand steps) to a cooling riverside walk through the woods. You can hire pedalos and canoes to take along the river from one of the local restaurants.
Only 35 minutes to the lovely sandy beaches of Meschers. There are several beaches from small coves to long sandy stretches most of which are monitored by life guards. Beach side restaurants are available along this whole stretch. If you are looking for something more remote travel further to the Cote Sauvage (wild coast) for body boarding or surfing.
The famous town of Cognac where you can tour one of the many cognac houses. The town itself is beautiful and well worth wandering around.
Take a pedalo or canoe along the river or enjoy a glass of wine in one the cafes opposite the donjon and fountains. On hot days (which there are many) take a stroll through the cooler woods running along the river.
A beautiful pedestrian only town situated on a promontory on the Gironde coast. Wander around the cobbled streets enjoying the artisan shops, beautiful views and lovely restaurants. A small church built in 1094 perches on the cliff edge, offering views of the coast.
A larger town offering the quintessential cafe scene. Enjoy the cafes and restaurants surrounding the cobbled harbor or take a visit to the stunning aquarium.
About an hour away this famous city offers everything you could want from a grand old French town. The city centre is compact and easy to navigate, full of restaurants and museums. The recently built "Cite du vin" is a museum dedicated to the history and production of wine. A long side wine tasting for adults there is even grape juice tasting for the kids.
A spacious and well maintained gite with all amenities . Good position owners extremely helpful
Arriving on one of the hottest days of the year after a long drive with 2 young kids, the place was a huge relief. It is a home from home. Really well thought out decor, everything you'd need to just relax.
The pictures don't do the place justice as it is larger than we expected.
Greg & Mandy are superb hosts and are really keen to make sure everything is just right to enjoy your stay.
Our kids didn't want to leave the pool for a week, when we did they wanted to go back to the pool.
Location is rural, surrounded by Vineyards, Sunflowers and Cornfields with the odd bird of prey circling in the sky.
Best holiday we've had in a long time. Highly recommend.
A lovely peaceful setting. The property is furnished and equipped to a high standard with tasteful decor. All rooms are larger than they appear in the pictures making everybody comfortable. The outside spaces are great - especially the covered area near the pool where the dart board is fun for all. The pool is large enough to swim and, being above ground, particularly safe for younger children. Owners are the perfect hosts - attentive, available but always totally discrete. The area is quiet and tranquil allowing complete relaxation but only 5 minutes drive to a choice of supermarkets (both with petrol) and a selection of restaurants in Pons. Further afield it's 45 minutes to the beach or 30 minutes to Cognac. Our party was 2 grandparents, 2 parents & 1 two year old and we completely chilled out during our stay.
Greg and Mandy are great hosts the gite is perfect.
We would highly recommend staying here.
Pons is a lovely little town only 5 mins away in the car with all the amenities needed.
We loved every minute at La petit longere.
