The Experience

Perfect for families: an old cottage which is one of two properties set in two and a half acres of gated grounds of a former Cognac Domaine, surrounding the owners’ Charentais manor house. The good-sized heated pool, set in the orchard overlooking the vineyards, is just for you, along with your own terrace and courtyard garden with barbecue. Down a narrow driveway lined with shrubs and flowers is Manor Cottage: find a buttery-yellow sitting room with cosy armchairs and sofas, bedrooms that are a mix of old English checks and French toile de Jouy, two pristine shower rooms and a family bathroom downstairs. There’s a generous welcome pack: a bottle of Bordeaux, jams from the orchard, cakes, fresh fruit, coffee. Cooks will be content in the kitchen with its modern layout and white crockery, and plenty of space in the living room means you can eat at a table here or outside in good weather. Your kind host is there if you need her and can give advice on vineyards to visit. Deeply relaxing.

Reviews

Gary, London

Extremely spacious and well-equipped property with secluded outdoor spaces for dining and shared use of the heated swimming pool. The large living room has three sofas and room to spare! The owners are very welcoming and helpful. Nearby Cognac and the Charente River in particular are very pleasant places to visit. Would certainly recommend.


Mark,, Shrewsbury

La Rose des Vents is a beautiful property to very high standard in a homely French country style. Graham and Lyn have clearly thought a lot about what is required to create a quality holiday experience from the decor to the range of equipment and not least the way that they look after the guests. Highly recommend.


Jacquie, Newmarket, Suffolk

We spent a great week in the Manor house, this is our second visit to La Rose des Vents. The welcome from Lyn and Graham was very warm and home made cake is always a winner! Food & drink as was delicious and plentiful with many courses. For Circuit des Ramparts Historic racing, they didn't let us down with the best tickets in the grandstands (great for photo opportunities). Our room was beautifully furnished in a classic French style. Excursions were well planned and we had a great relaxing time with our hosts and other guests. I'm sure we will be back again.... Jacquie & Tony


Rebecca, Reading

Super week - we had booked for earlier in the year (French fuel strikes prevented our visit) but Lynn was able to accommodate a postponement and it was well worth the wait - fabulous weather helped of course but Lynn had sorted out some fabulous venues and clear/interesting routes for us to take in our modern Aston Martin/Alfa Romeo cars; the routes and destinations were fantastic and it was equally wonderful to come home to a simple but sumptuous snack supper. Just the sort of holiday we like and our whole party of 6 enjoyed the organised trips and accommodation.


Alan, Gun Hill

We really couldn't ask more of a holiday let. Super welcome from Lyn and Graham, we had arranged for Lyn to cook for us one the first night and the meal was excellent. The accommodation, furniture, fittings, beds etc.. are beyond reproach. Pool is gorgeous and expertly maintained by Graham. The Peeks gave us lots of good advice of where to go for entertainment, shopping and good restaurants and we even got included in a classic car event they had organised. You can book this holiday with confidence.
