Two beautifully restored 18th century stone farmhouses and outbuildings with a private gated walled garden, a heated salt water swimming pool (11m x 5m) and ample on-site secure parking. The owners David & Josee will ensure a very warm welcome to Les Portes Vertes, in the beautiful countryside of the Poitou-Charentes region of Nouvelle Aquitaine. Situated roughly half-way between the Loire Valley and the Cognac region, in a picturesque tranquille and safe setting that is only 8 minutes from a town for all your daily requirements. Les Portes Vertes can accommodate groups of all sizes up to a maximum of 14; our two gîtes 'The Old Farmhouse' and 'The Stables' can be rented separately or jointly as a single venue to suit the size of your family or group Safe and Secure in a post-Covid “new normal” world; Les Portes Vertes is wholly self-contained so you control your level of external contact while we take your safety seriously and deep clean entirely between bookings. Each gîte is fully equipped with all mod cons, including Satellite TV and DVD player and dedicated Wi-Fi internet while still retaining an abundance of charm with exposed beams and mellow yellow stone walls
The owners, David & Josee live on site and are on hand to meet you and provide advice and support if required - but this is unobtrusive as we have our own entrance to the property. On arrival you will find a generous welcome pack that includes bread, butter, cheese, milk, eggs. water and of course some wine. we also ensure that the gites have an initial supply of basic necessities including face masks and hand sanitiser. We provide all bedding and towels including pool towels and a choice of duvets (light and heavy)
Whether you’re relaxing by the pool or taking advantage of the shade provided by the “Old Bread Oven”, Les Portes Vertes is an ideal place for a peaceful and relaxing self-catering holiday with so much to explore out and about in the glorious Poitou Charentes region, or the sights and sounds of the nearby cities of Poitiers with its vibrant shopping and night life, Niort the gateway to the Marais Poitevin, Angouleme or Cognac, all within easy driving distance. Talking of driving there is a golf course not far away. If after all that you still have energy then there are lots of local markets to visit and not forgetting the beach at La Rochelle and a must visit to the Valley of the Monkeys (20 mins drive) as is FutureScope (about 45 mins up the A10).
