This beautiful ground floor wood panelled apartment is part of the original Chateau built in 1722 during the pre-revolutionary era. It sits within 5 hectares of superbly maintained grounds with orchard, tree-lined avenues and a large grassed area, perfect for playing, peaceful picnics or sunset strolls. For the more energetic there is a large heated swimming pool and two tennis courts. The chateau is 30m from the village which has a bar/restaurant, boulangerie, general store/post office and is located near to a number of additional local bars/restaurants. It is ideally situated for those who wish to unwind and/or explore the idyllic Charente countryside on foot, bicycle or by car. The local area provides everything necessary for that French experience - markets, wine/cognac tasting, historical sites, boats trips, caves, fetes and festivals. For the more adventurous Cognac, Bordeaux, Bergerac and the Atlantic coastline are within a 2 hr drive.
