L'Ecurie - 2 Bedroom (Sleeps 4) Gite in Chef-Boutonne

Description

L'Ecurie


"L'Ecurie" is a beautifully restored 19th-century traditional Charentaise Logis, set in 2 acres of landscaped gardens, with racquet sports, a standard games room, and TWO swimming pool complexes. Logis de Lussais was built in the mid-19th Century as a gentleman's residence with a Manor house and private vineyard, and later became a working farm. It has since been restored to provide holiday accommodation. The Logis is approached along a private, tree-lined avenue, with ample shaded parking, and through grand entrance gates into a fountain courtyard. The farmhouse and four holiday cottages are around the central courtyard, and each has its own private gardens overlooking the fountain. The four cottages share a secure 10 x 5m swimming pool and a second 8 x 4m swimming pool. Both swimming pools are south-facing gardens with badminton, short tennis, and swings. In an open barn, there is a common games room with table tennis, a pool table, and bar football. All racquets and game equipment are provided. Wi-Fi Internet access is available on site free of charge.

This charming XIX-century logis was originally built as a gentleman's residence and vineyard, later becoming a working farm before being sympathetically restored. Approached through the grand entrance gates at the end of a private 100-year-old chestnut-lined driveway, providing ample shaded parking, the main farmhouse and L'Ecurie overlook the pretty circular courtyard with its centre the fountains. Renovated in 2017, L'Ecuire offers an open-plan space on the ground floor, complete with a well-equipped kitchen, dining area, oven, gas hob, dishwasher, fridge-freezer, and microwave.
