Beautiful 12th Century Post House with Private Pool sleeps 27 in 13 bedrooms.

Le Relais is situated in a delightful and peaceful village, surrounded by glorious countryside of sunflowers, cornfields and woods, a nature lovers paradise. This lovingly restored 12th century Country post house has all you need for a perfect, relaxing holiday. You can go walking, fishing, beaches, canoe, play golf or tennis, dine out, all within 10 mins. The attractive, enclosed garden provides peace and tranquillity as well as areas for games and activities. Both, a paved area beneath a shady pergola and a sunny terrace, are ideal for alfresco meals.There is a very large, airy dining room (62sq.m) with a piano, seats 28, a spacious salon, comfortably furnished and with plenty of books, opening onto a Perigordian balcony and a large, well equipped farmhouse kitchen. Le Relais is approximately 5km from both St.Severin and Aubeterre, the 'jewel of the Charente'. The wine regions of Bordeaux, St.Emilion/Pomerol and Cognac are not very far and well worth a visit!

Fantastic stay in traditional french house

We have just returned from a fantastic stay at Le Relais. The house was lovely, traditional French. we were a family party of 20, 9 children ranging from 5-16 and 11 adults. The house had plenty of space for us all, the communal areas e.g. kitchen, dining room, living room, and outside space were fantastic. Barbara, the owner was there to welcome us and give us any advice required. the pool area was lovely and a big hit with the children, as was the games room. Free Wi-Fi was also very popular with both children and adults alike. Nearby Aubeterre was lovely. It has a riverside beach for swimming, kayaking, with a reasonably priced café. we also visited Nabinaud (about 8 mins away) for the high ropes course, maze and another lovely beach. All in all, a fantastic family holiday destination that I would recommend visiting . Thank you Barbara.

We had a great week here. The house is well-equipped, and the pool is great — perfect for a group holiday. We left with plenty of happy memories. The only downside has been what happened afterwards. Two weeks on, we’re still dealing with a waste disposal fine we believe is unfair, with very unclear communication from the host. During the stay, the only issue raised with us was fixed straight away, and nothing more was mentioned. It’s a shame, because instead of just remembering the holiday, we’ve ended up discussing this when we get together. The place itself is fantastic and we’d have rated the stay higher if not for the post-holiday dispute.(Traduction automatique)Nous avons passé une excellente semaine ici. La maison est bien équipée et la piscine est superbe — parfaite pour des vacances en groupe. Nous sommes repartis avec beaucoup de bons souvenirs.Le seul point négatif concerne ce qui s’est passé après notre séjour. Deux semaines plus tard, nous devons encore gérer une amende pour la gestion des déchets que nous estimons injuste, avec une communication très peu claire de la part de l’hôte. Pendant le séjour, le seul problème évoqué avec nous a été réglé immédiatement, et rien d’autre n’a été mentionné. C’est dommage, car au lieu de simplement nous souvenir des bons moments, nous avons fini par parler de cette affaire lorsque nous nous retrouvons.Le lieu en lui-même est fantastique, et nous aurions attribué une meilleure note sans ce litige après le séjour.

We en famille

Malgré la météo capricieuse, nous avons passé un excellent we en famille dans un endroit très calme : logement très spacieux, on a apprécié l'équipement complet, la grande pièce de vie, le salon cosy à l'étage et la salle avec le billard. Le jardin est très agréable et la piscine sécurisée, on a pu déjeuner dehors - barbecue couvert très utile - et de rares courageux ont profité de la piscine. La proximité des commerces (environ 10/15 minutes) est également très apprécié et l'église souterraine d'Aubeterre-sur-Dronne nous a émerveillés.

La maison est fidèle aux indications de l'annonce et bénéficie de toutes les commodités pour adultes et enfants. En bref, un sejour hors du temps qui permet de se recentrer sur l'essentiel.

Wonderful multigenerational family holiday

We stayed in pillac with 10 adults from 74 to 34, and 9 children aged between 2 and 18 and what a holiday we had! The house is perfectly set up for family groups as each lot can take a "wing". A really well equipped kitchen enabled us to have wonderful meals at home... meat cooked by the boys and wonderful salads cooked by Barbara's friend. Barbara was super helpful and very easy to contact the whole time. The village was gorgeous but tiny..... about a 10 minute drive for any grocery shopping. Amazing towns and villages around, fields of sunflowers, kayaking, markets..... We all loved it, thanks Barbara !

En famille à Pillac !

Nous avons passé un merveilleux week-end de pâques dans ce gîte. Une maison historique, atypique et adaptée pour un grand groupe. Même si la piscine n'était pas chauffée en cette saison, nous avons pu en profiter (pour les plus courageux), et bronzer au soleil pour les autres. Je recommande cette adresse ! :) Les alentours du village de Pillac détiennent un patrimoine riche, des domaines et vignes ... Nous avons pu nous rendre au marché de Aubeterre-sur-Dronne et visiter un domaine pour y découvrir des orchidées sauvages et une production de Cognac et alcool VIVANT (Le Domaine Decroix) .
