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!

Gîte magnifique
Nous avons passé un excellent weekend dans le gîte de Barbara à l'occasion d'un anniversaire entre amis ! Le lieu s'y prêtait à merveille, tant par le nombre de couchages, la beauté de l'endroit, le calme à proximité, la grande piscine et les jeux présents dans le gîte. Nous avons eu la chance d'avoir une météo exceptionnelle pour ce dernier weekend de septembre pour en profiter au maximum. Je recommande vivement cette location. Ludivine

Weekend Anniversaire Retrouvailles
On était 23 et tout le monde a apprécié la location pour des raisons différentes - cadre super, calm, maison pleine de charme avec des recoins pour discuter tranquillement les uns avec les autres, les noisettiers pour ramasser les noisettes...Nous n'avions pas d'enfants avec nous mais plein de jouets pour faire le bonheur des petits ! Propriétaire très accueillant et disponible en cas de besoin sans être intrusive. Weekend réussi.

About the host

Hosted by Barbara Hubbard

Host profile image
I am Austrian but grew up in Germany where I also worked as cabin crew for Lufthansa for 10 years. We moved to France in 1982 and I lived in Pillac since 1983 together with my three children. Pillac is still the same as it was when we moved here, a quiet and beautiful little village where one can relax and enjoy the lovely surroundings.

Why they chose this property

Le Relais is a great place for groups of all kinds. I had groups with activities, like painting courses, writer's classes etc. but mostly the groups are friends and families with ages ranging from 3 month to 90 years.
There are all kind of activities for everybody and lots of space inside the house and outside in the garden and around the pool.
