7 Bedroom House in Bessac

Stunning French country house. Perfect for families with children taking a holiday together. Also great for groups of friends, cyclists or work-related team building events. We welcome groups of cyclists, motoring enthusiasts, aspiring artists, yoga groups and anyone who needs the respite of this elegant though informal French haven.
Perfectly located in a peaceful setting but with all conveniences very nearby. Road links and airports are an easy drive and there are great road links to the ports. The property is close to the historic cities of Bordeaux, Cognac and Angouleme. Just 15 minutes off the N10 at Barbeziuex Charente, North of Bordeaux.
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 is set within 5 acres of French countryside and it is the only house on a quiet country lane.
The manoir is 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.
The manoir 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 manoir has a practical, safe layout providing an abundance of accommodation.
We can provide high chairs, cots and baby equipment 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 property there are seven bedrooms in total and four bathrooms with brand new showers throughout. Two of the bathrooms are en-suites and one bathroom has a double sink and roll top bath. There are two bedrooms with king size beds, one of which has an en-suite. There is one twin bedroom, one triple bedroom consisting of a double bed and a single (but could accommodate another single or cot if required), one quadruple with a double bed and two singles and finally there are two bedrooms with double beds, one of which has an en-suite. So there is plenty of room for everyone to have their own space.
The recently renovated swimming pool 10m x 5m, 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 is equipped with a pool alarm for safety and peace of mind. You can sunbathe by the pool, enjoy the unique and beautiful views and completely unwind.
The house is extremely well equipped. There are attractive high ceilings and a feature original terracotta floor, the spaces are large and elegantly furnished with characterful, timeless furniture. There is also plenty of outdoor furniture for relaxing and 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 though 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, Aubetterre Sur Dronne 25mins and Angouleme 30mins away. Also Saint Emillion only a short scenic 1hr drive away, or take a trip into the Dorgdogne 1hr - take your pick. Manoir d'Aulagnes is in an excellent location to enjoy the world famous Cognac Houses and the world renowned vineyards of South West France. Paris can be reached in only a 2hr30 train journey for a special brand of shopping day trip or romantic overnight visit.
If all that sounds like too much hard work you can simply just relax and enjoy the beautiful views here and sunbathe by the pool.
We are flanked by lines of lush green vines on a very quiet country lane, sunflower fields either side, perfect for little ones to cycle or skate. Manoir d'Aulagnes is a detached house with no neighbours, you will enjoy the peacefulness of the countryside. There are bountiful flora and fauna and spectacular birds of prey, foxes, hare and deer to spot. The property boasts wonderful views punctuated with fields of vivid sunflowers, maize and golden wheat. It has a vista that captivates your eyes throughout the seasons and is wonderful to photograph, paint or simply enjoy being surrounded by.
Manoir d'Aulagnes is a very special French getaway, a holiday with versatility for families, a sophisticated tranquil getaway for a group of friends or professionals who want a slice of an authentic French experience and a fantastic characterful base to explore and enjoy.

Summary: We travelled as a large group (4 adults, 8 kids of various ages from 6 to 15) The house is fabulous, even better than the pictures. The recently renovated pool is fantastic, especially at night when the tiles glow. The Kids loved it! The setting is tranquil and the grounds are lovey. The outside areas/games room with table football and Ping pong were also great. Would hightly recommend; Thanks Keith and Kirsten
