A beautiful house, tastefully appointed and furnished, in an outstanding location with distant views of farms and villages, enhanced this year by the surrounding fields of sunflowers. We stayed for the last 2 weeks of July and with the never-ending sunshine spent a lot of our time in the gardens or by the heated pool, although there is a fully equipped games room. On the occasions that we did venture out we enjoyed the pretty villages of Aubeterre, with its church carved into a cliff, and Brantome with its vibrant Friday market together with trips to Cognac, Riberac , Angouleme and of course the local village of Villebois with its excellent restaurant in the town square opposite the 17th Century covered market, overlooked by the Chateau. It is a truly stunning house, in a location that would be difficult to beat, equipped with 5 star fixtures and fittings for the enjoyment of like minded people. We look forward to our next visit.
We had a FANTASTIC two weeks at Belle Etoile. It was everything we dreamed of! The property is stunning. The house is perfect and had everything we needed. The views from the house are stunning along with the pool and garden. Great location with lots to do and visit. We took our bikes and did lots of cycle rides through beautiful french villages. We were a party of 12 (6 adults and 6 kids) and we all had a brilliant time. We will definitely be back! Thank you x
We were a couple, part of a group of 8. We stayed in the gite next door to the main house. This was like a separate apartment with lots of space, separate bedrooms - an en suite double and a twin - with a fully fitted kitchen, a large seating area, and a wood burning stove. This meant we could be separate when we wanted, and join in the larger party in the main house. We ate and hung out in the main house, which is cosy and beautifully decorated, as well as beating our host consistently in both table tennis and bar football in the games barn. Playing pétanque gave us a chance to appreciate the views of the landscape, the sunset and the profusion of stars. The location itself is in a small tranquil hamlet close to a market village with good bars and a great restaurant. Angouleme is 20 minutes away, convenient for the very good Caves Charlemagne.
