Naturist Gite at Charente Soleil naturist resort in France

La Chouette (The Barn Owl) is named after the previous resident who now lives in a nearby building.

The house is 300 years old and is a traditional design for an artisan's or farmer's house in this area. It has a wealth of original features and has been renovated to a high standard. There is a double and a triple bedroom - It accommodates 5 very comfortably and with a sofa bed in the living room this can be increased to 7 if necessary.

Raised terrace provides shade from the mid-day sun.

The entrance is via a flight of stone steps that leads to the shady covered terrace with lovely views over the garden and surrounding countryside. The front door opens into into the spacious living room with exposed beams and a solid chestnut wood floor.

There is a large traditional stone Charentaise fireplace complete with modern wood-burning stove - very cosy if the occasional early or late season evening is a bit chilly. The kitchen area is comprehensively equipped and includes a gas cooker with oven and grill, combined refrigerator/freezer and a microwave.

The dining table seats 6 and there are two sofas in the sitting area, either of which will convert to make an extra double bed.
