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!

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.

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 !

Lovely relaxing venue for a big group - thoroughly recommended

Barbara was a lovely, attentive host. The beautiful, historic place is set in a quiet village in an idyllic countryside location. Great pool and surrounds with plenty of shade for the ridiculously hot weather we had when we were visiting. The house stays lovely and cool. It was excellent to have everything we needed on hand from kitchen supplies and essentials to pool toys and badminton sets and loads of towels, linens etc. Pool room was fun and there was too much to do in the villa. We had a great time chilling out and connecting over BBQs and lovely local food and wine. We loved exploring the local towns and canoeing down the river as well as a slightly longer trip to Cognac. We flew in to Bordeaux and out of La Rochelle which was a fun way of extending our holiday! Thoroughly recommended.

Home away from home.

We spent two fantastic weeks at Le Relais. Having come all the way from Australia, it was nice to have a big family get together with our family from the Netherlands, Ireland and the U.S. The house is so comfortable and homely that it felt as though we had always lived there. The property is incredibly spacious which allowed everyone to have their own space if required. The kids played in the pool, garden and playhouses day after day. No electronic devices were used throughout our stay. The nearby picturesque villages were full with culture and history. We are already planning our next get together in 2019. Our hostess Barbara was very welcoming and accommodating at our arrival. I couldn't recommend this wonderful house highly enough.

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.
