In a quiet rural hamlet, near the Boutonne river, Agnès and Denis welcome you to the "Gué de Champagné". 10 mins from St Jean d'Angély, between La Rochelle (50 mins) and Cognac (50 mins), the location is ideal for visiting Charente-Maritime!
A former cellar, adjoining the owner's house, has become a rural gîte and has all the comforts, classified 3 stars. The 2 spacious bedrooms are upstairs from which is also the 2nd WC
From the terrace and the small garden, you can listen to the many birds in this wooded and bucolic environment (the site is an LPO refuge).
Fancy a walk or a bike ride? you can join the Boutonne (400m) for beautiful hikes on the banks of this charming river... Depending on the season, you will have the chance to observe the white storks (a nest is 300 m from the gîte) because the Charente-Maritime is now the favorite department of this beautiful wader!
In the heart of the Vals de Saintonge, heritage lovers will also find their happiness: the historic center of St Jean d'Angély and its royal abbey, castles, Romanesque churches, museums, small towns of character, stone villages and water...
