There is a large recently renovated pool, generous sun-bathing terrace to enjoy and gated gardens, as well as a very large expanse of open green spaces with breath-taking views of the vineyards and endless sunflower fields. Manoir d'Aulagnes and La Mirabelle is set within 5 acres of French countryside and it is the only property on a quiet country lane. The properties are located within the charming department of the Charente, the home of world famous wines and the Cognac houses of Hennessy, Martel and Remy Martin to name but a few are only 40 minutes away. Manoir d'Aulagnes has a beautiful classical facade, majestically surrounded by rows of vines and sunflowers, peaceful yet close to a village. Very private and set in its own grounds the elegant French house is at the heart of a former Cognac estate. All the showers within the property have recently been renovated and are presented to a high standard. La Mirabelle (the Gite) is a converted Porcherie which is modern and stylish and is set within the grounds of the Manoir to be close enough for friends & family to enjoy holidays together in larger groups without the need to drive between properties. The showers in this property have also recently been renovated to a high standard. The property has its own large spaces, gardens and the most typically French view across sunflowers and vines. It has abundant parking, its own gardens, a large pool set in a walled garden with a large terrace with far reaching beautiful views. Visit Bordeaux, Cognac and Angouleme for the shopping, museums and cafe society with such great ease. It is very close to several tranquil swimming lake beaches and a leisure quarry is nearby for jet skiing, It's only an hour and a half to the coast and the long stretches of sandy beaches. There are a variety of outdoor activities, swimming, sightseeing, cycling routes, running, horse riding or just enjoy relaxing by the pool, soaking up the heat of the sun. The property has a practical, safe layout providing an abundance of accommodation. We can provide high chairs for more than one infant if we are given advance notice. With all local village amenities, tourist attractions in easy reach and all road links to major airports and routes to the ferry ports a comfortable distance away, you can enjoy all the convenience of a great holiday location. Within the Manoir there are seven bedrooms in total and four bathrooms, two of which are en-suites. One of the bathrooms comes with a double sink and roll top bath. There is one twin bedroom, one triple consisting of a double bed and one single (this could accommodate another single bed if requested in advance of your stay) and one quadruple room consisting of a double bed and two singles. There are two further bedrooms with double beds, one with an en-suite and finally two king size bedrooms, one with an en-suite. So there is plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. Within the Gite there are three bedrooms in total, one twin room, one double room both sharing access to the main bathroom. The master bedroom has a king size bed and it's own en-suite bathroom including a roll top bath. The lovely swimming pool 10m x5m, is set in a walled garden. As the walled garden is contained this means that any play space is very separate from the pool area though nearby and close enough to watch the children whilst you relax. The pool has a pool alarm for safety and peace of mind. You can sunbath by the pool, enjoy the unique and beautiful views and completely unwind. Both properties are well equipped and elegantly furnished. There is also plenty of outdoor furniture to enjoy that very special brand of French outdoor living, relaxing and dining. As a group you will easily find your own space away from each other as there are several areas for relaxing and eating. Enjoy a pleasant stroll along the country lane with far reaching views. It's heavenly! Perfectly placed, only a hop skip and a jump away from restaurants, shopping and the refreshing swimming lake beaches. So much to do, cycling, hiking, water parks, sailing, sandy surfing beaches and the flora and fauna filled Gironde Estuary, not forgetting wine and Cognac tasting of course. There is so much to entertain all ages. Bordeaux 1hr, Cognac 40mins Tourist License / Licencia de turismo N °: 8879563320001
