In the summer the pool is the focus of the property. It is large 12 m x 6 m and chlorine - free as it operates with a RO/DI type system plus it cleans itself automatically during the early hours of the morning.
The pool is in full view of the covered back terrace that is draped with Virginia creeper - making it easy to watch the children and enjoying the shade if that is your pleasure. Cushioned lounge chairs are provided to make your sunbathing most relaxing! In the late evenings the underwater sidelights provide a warm glow for even more hours of enjoyment. It is located in the centre of a large rear garden (~5,000 M2). A small side garden has a herb garden and fruit trees plus laundry line for air drying towel and bathing suits.
"LaVigne" is our home 10 - 12 weeks of the year and we have equipped the house to a high standard - not only for you our guest as well as for our personal enjoyment. The kitchen has a dishwasher, microwave, ample fridge-freezer, cooker with induction hobs and a convection oven. We are always adding to the culinary tools to cater to all your cooking requirements.
There is a separate laundry room with washer and tumble dryer, extra fridge as well as store area for dried goods.
One note - linen is provided but we do ask that your provide bath and sunbathing towels as it is most difficult to keep them to a high standard when sunbathing oil, creams etc. are being used. We do ask for your understanding of this one restriction.
The lounge is the off-season focus of the house. We have provided a wide array of books and a CD music system (please bring your favourites) for those lazy hours of reading a good book and listening to your favourite music. The French doors in the front of the house give this area a light and airy feeling; closing the glass doors to the large family room transforms it from an airy summer house to a snug winter cottage. The wood burning stove not only provides charm but also gives off hours of abundant heat. Some of our favourite times are the autumn and post Christmas period with crisp mornings and sun filled days followed by evenings of wine enhanced dining followed by relaxing with a good book by the crackling stove.

Leave ReviewIdeal for short getaway
By Bruno Namaseevayum on 31-May-2025Thoroughly enjoyable stay in the middle of a woodland setting with a private pool, ideal for a getaway. Spent the days cycling and walking with the dogs (lots of little quiet country lanes) with a supermarket less than a 10 minute drive away that was stocked with so much variety it puts the ones in the UK to shame. There is a small village just past the supermarket with a number of restaurants for eating out. It’s a lovely part of the world as long as you are not expecting to go major brand marquee shopping. Would thoroughly recommend it as a getaway.
A very peaceful holiday in a beautiful location
By Jenny Poulton on 14-Sep-2024La Vigne is a big house set in a very peaceful setting down a small road. There was plenty of room for our two cars just outside the property. The very large, well kept garden with lots of trees, was a lovely place to sit and enjoy the peace and quiet and listening to the birds. There is woodland all around the garden and we saw all sorts of wildlife; deer, a fox, geckos, frogs and even salamanders. The large pool was clean, a bit cold for us due to when we visited, but we used it several times. The house was comfortable and well equipped. We enjoyed having our meals and playing cards around the large dining table in the large main living room. The wood burner there came in handy because the evenings were cool when we stayed. We visited the very large market at Piegut-Pleuviers twice, loads of stalls and lots to tempt us. It's an interesting little town with shops and a supermarket that sells fuel and it's not very far away. Fishing was available at Le lac de St Mathieu, not far from La Vigne. We bought day permits at the Tabac in St Mathieu. Also at the lake was La Grange du Lac, run by an English lady. We ate there twice and it was very good and reasonably priced. We would love to go back to La Vigne again one day.
A wonderful semi secluded get away
By Carrie Brown on 07-Sep-2024We had a wonderful stay, we know the area well and was looking for somewhere close to our parents when we required a little extra space for our adult children came over to stay. The this little house was perfect. We were busy most of the time we stayed but the pool was wonderful treat after a busy day. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out and play games, watch movies or just chilling listening to music playing games.
A wonderful place hidden away
By Ellie on 10-Aug-2024We had a brilliant 2 week stay at La Vigne. Tucked away in a quiet village near Marval. The pool was a great addition to the property and loved by our children. The village has a little store and a wonderful restaurant plus a Sunday market for great crepes! We didn’t have to tell then children to be quiet as it was surrounded by forests where they could run free and safely. Claire is so helpful with any enquiries too.
Perfect Country Retreat
By Denise & Howard on 01-Jun-2024We stayed at La Vigne for 4 weeks. Its a lovely country house with the most amazing pool and garden. The house was lovely with a big veranda looking over the pool and garden, this is where we spent almost every evening sitting listening to the birds and later in the evening the crickets as that's all you can hear which is perfect. The local shop in the village sells everything you can think of as well as bread and croissants etc, which you can also order. We also had a meal in the restaurant / bar in the village and the food was amazing, definitely worth a visit. we wouldn't hesitate to go back, it is a really lovely little house in a beautiful peaceful setting.
Amazing, peaceful location
By Oliver on 25-May-2024The location of La Vigne is perfect if you’re happy to lie next to the pool with only the sounds of the crickets and cuckoo’s to keep you company. The property is a quirky layout which is perfect for hide and seek. A car is essential as there is lots to visit within an hours drive.
