Both UK and french television channels are available in all 3 gites. The Confolen gite also has a log burner for those chilly evenings. Our barn conversion was finished in July 2008 and offers cosy accommodation and character, with exposed stonework and beams. We cater for individuals, couples, families and groups. For the kids we have a trampoline, table football, darts, basketball, swing, slide and badminton, as well as providing each gite with is own man-made, old fashioned game - ie. nine mens morris, solataire, table skittles and toptafel. We also have a communal washing machine. Smoking is not permitted within any of our gites - ashtrays are provided for external use. Pets are only considered within our Confolen Gite.

Peyras is a quiet hamlet, far enough out for peace and quiet, but close enough for amenities. Our local shop, bar, pharmacy and boulangerie can be found in Exideuil just 2km down the road. For supermarket shopping and the weekly market, Chabanais is 6km from us. We have 3 separate man-made beaches with lakes all within 10 minutes from us with the Lacs de Hte Charente being the most well known. These are very popular in the summer with watersports being available. You may want to try kayaking or fishing down the River Vienne..... this is also available in Exideuil. For those into history, you may want to see Oradour Sur Glane, Confolens and Rochechouart - all within easy reach. Le Vallee des Singes (Monkey World) is also a fabulous day out for adults and children alike Then of course, as we are in France, we have plenty of Chateaux to visit!
