Self Catering Accommodation in Gençay

Was a beautiful place to stay

We were met by the owner and shown the property. This is important and appreciated as so many places just leave a key . Property fully equipped, kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms. Big living area with sliding patio windows on to the garden. Peaceful in a small village with no passing cars. Very quiet. We could bring the car into the property Full kitchen for cooking a meal. The owner kindly left condiments and all you needed to cook. We had had a long drive, brought food and didn't want to go out again, so this was nice. Nice terrace onto garden for dining and relaxing.

Perfect location, quiet, surrounded by beautiful countryside. The gite has been well done up and very well equipped. (just missing a kettle) Beds very comfortable

The hosts were wonderful and very accommodating.

A perfect French countryside stay. Our hosts Beatrice & Jean Luc were welcoming and gracious. Our language barriers were overcome with Google translate 😄

We had the most wonderful stay. The setting was like being on the set of the film Babe, it was magical! From the moment we booked, we had excellent communication from the owners Elodie and Dorian, an adorable young couple. When we arrived, we were warmly greeted by them and their beautiful dogs. The bus is located in a private tranquil area of an equestrian farm. The setting is perfect, located under the shade of trees, surrounded by fields with horses, ponies and goats. It has its own outdoor lounge area where you can dine or enjoy a drink under the stars. The bus itself has been impeccably restored. It was very clean and well equipped and everything functioned correctly. It had a hot shower, toilet, a well stocked kitchen with a hob, microwave, fridge and all the required kitchen utensils. There is an internal seating area should you choose to dine indoors. There is a driver's area which would be great fun for children and adults! The bed was comfortable and clean. To wake up in the morning and hear the gentle sounds of the horses was really special and the views were wonderful. We chose to have the french breakfast which was served to us at a pre agreed time. There are plenty of activities offered onsite, such as horse and pony treks or jumping lessons, archery and fitness classes and an escape game. Unfortunately we did not have time to participate, but all were very reasonably priced. There are also lots of activities in the surrounding areas, planet of crocodiles, bowling, futuroscope and aquascope, and the beautiful town of Poitiers for historical interests, shopping and restaurants. I would return here in a heartbeat and would highly recommend this hidden gem.
