Holiday Home Rental Description

In the sunny region of Charente, close to the border with Dordogne, Le Manoir Des Pineaux allows you to experience laid back French living in beautiful surroundings whether a family getaway, foodie retreat with friends or an intimate wedding close to historic market towns and wonderful landscapes.
As soon as the current owners approached the driveway of this 18th century home, they knew it was just perfect for them. Surrounded by open French countryside with such calming views, the project has been a labour of love and what they have created is simply stunning. Le Manoir Des Pineaux effortlessly combines tradition with contemporary elegance and it’s obvious that the owners have a keen eye for aesthetic style.
With five individually designed bedrooms featuring hand-made headboards and Egyptian cotton bedlinen, most with king or super king-sized beds, guests can soak up the relaxed vintage vibe whilst making the most of the glorious scenery. Then there’s the cosy lounge with its log-burner and adjoining library, the bright dining room and fantastically equipped French kitchen; every corner of this manoir has been restored with so much love and flair.
Another brilliant feature is the huge barn, not just a superb spot for joyful meals beneath the characterful wood beams, but also a place to kick back with a film on the 200-inch screen, chill out with the PS4 or challenge someone to a game of pool, darts or table tennis.
Outside you can admire the delicate pink roses trailing by the kitchen door, the hand-painted blue shuttered windows and the inviting swimming pool overlooking the countryside. Poolside dining is so special by the outdoor kitchen, especially in the evening as the area is atmospherically lit up. A barbecue and custom-built pizza oven await – the owners are brilliant cooks and can arrange imaginative pizza nights or barbecue feasts so you can just sit back with your glass of rosé wine as the sun sets. 
Head out for bike rides or long walks from your doorstep or simply stroll down the country lane to the local village with its boulangerie and well-regarded restaurant. Discover delightful Farmer’s markets, including one in the village on a Friday morning, then enjoy a picnic by the Dronne river just a short drive away. Spend time in picture-perfect villages from idyllic Aubeterre-sur-Dronne only 15km away to enchanting Brantôme, known as ‘Venice of the Périgord Vert’, the ideal spot for canoeing and lunch.
Vibrant and historic Angoulême with its foodie scene, comic museum and classic car race is also within easy reach or explore further afield to experience the charm of Périgueux or the wine-tasting of Saint-Émilion and Bordeaux. You could even dip your feet in the ocean in Royan or Lacanau before returning to the calmness of your inspiring and welcoming holiday home.  In the Charente department of France, close to the border with Dordogne, Le Manoir Des Pineaux is set in the open countryside just outside a picturesque French village.
You can walk down the country lane to the local boulangerie, a well-regarded French restaurant (take a torch for the walk back if dark) and the weekly market on a Friday morning. Further amenities including a large supermarket, shops and restaurants are in Montmoreau-Saint-Cybard, just over a 10-minute drive away – visit on a Saturday morning for its lovely market. Trains depart Montmoreau towards Libourne or Angoulême.
There is a good range of other restaurants in local villages around a 10 to 15-minute drive away as well as many walking and cycling opportunities straight from manoir. Golf-lovers can play at the 9-hole golf club a short drive away or try larger courses near Angoulême or even Cognac. Enjoy further summer adventures at Base de Loisirs de Poltrot, only 15 minutes away, with its maze, tree-top adventure course, picnic spots by the Dronne river and an atmospheric restaurant.
Just a little further is Aubeterre-sur-Dronne (15km), one of France’s classified ‘Plus Beaux Villages’ in such a beautiful setting above the river with charming shops, artist studios, a stunning church carved into the underground rock and a wonderful Sunday morning market. Ribérac (24km) is another much-loved historic town with one of the largest markets in the Périgord region (also look out for the town’s monthly brocante) whilst gorgeous Brantôme (42km) is a must-see, known as the Venice of the Périgord Vert and an idyllic spot for canoeing excursions. Perhaps combine with a visit to the grand Château de Bourdeilles, also close to the banks of the Dronne.
Angoulême (37km) is a fine day out whether you wish to admire its castle and historic architecture, peruse its superb markets or experience its vibrant art and food scene. Dedicated graphic novel fans will love the Musée de la Bande Dessinée and you can discover huge murals across the city as you explore its cobbled lanes. It’s also home to the very exciting Circuit des Remparts each September as classic cars race around the city.
There’s yet more excellent food and wine to be enjoyed in Périgueux (58km) and Saint-Émilion (78km) whilst Bordeaux (115km) can be reached in well under two hours. Continue onwards for oysters and white wine overlooking the bay in Arcachon or slightly closer to home soak up the seaside vibe in Royan (120km) with its superb sandy beach and relaxed ambience by the Atlantic coast.
