Your Own Private French Countryside Retreat – Sleeps 14

Escape to the beautiful Charente-Maritime countryside and enjoy the space, freedom and flexibility of your own private holiday complex. Chatenet Holiday Gites offers three charming, renovated gîtes surrounded by vineyards, sunflowers and peaceful rural landscapes — an ideal setting for extended families, groups of friends and multi-generational holidays.

With accommodation for up to 14 guests across 7 bedrooms, the property gives everyone room to relax while bringing the group together for memorable meals, lazy afternoons by the pool and evenings enjoying a glass of local wine.

Space to relax, together

The three gîtes provide a flexible combination of accommodation, making the property particularly well suited to families travelling together or groups who appreciate having their own space. The renovated barn-style interiors combine character with the comforts of modern holiday living, including well-equipped kitchens, open-plan living areas and fast Wi-Fi. A wood-burning stove adds a cosy touch for cooler evenings, while heating and cooling help keep you comfortable throughout the year.

Outside, enjoy the 8 × 4 metre swimming pool, relax in the peaceful surroundings or simply slow down and savour the French countryside. The enclosed grounds offer a welcoming environment for families with children.

Discover the wines of Bordeaux

Wine lovers are in for a treat. Located within reach of Bordeaux and its celebrated wine regions, Chatenet Holiday Gites makes an excellent base for discovering local vineyards, charming wine villages and the region’s rich food and wine culture.

For an extra-special experience, ask us about arranging a wine tasting at the property. With a selection of Bordeaux wines and the opportunity to learn more about the region, it’s a wonderful way to bring your group together without even leaving your holiday home.

Explore the surrounding region

There’s plenty to discover beyond the property. Explore the vineyards and wine estates around Bordeaux, visit local markets and picturesque villages, or head towards the Atlantic coast for a day by the sea. The beaches around Royan offer a lovely change of scenery, while Bordeaux itself is ideal for a day of sightseeing, shopping, dining and wine discovery.

The surrounding countryside is equally rewarding for leisurely drives, cycling, walking and discovering the quieter side of southwest France.

A holiday in every season

Summer brings sunshine and poolside relaxation, but the surrounding region has plenty to offer in spring and early autumn too. Enjoy quieter roads, vineyard visits, local markets and the pleasures of French country living without the busiest summer crowds.

Whether you’re planning a family reunion, a special birthday, a get-together with friends or simply a relaxing escape to France, Chatenet Holiday Gites offers the space to be together and the freedom to holiday at your own pace.

Three gîtes. One countryside setting. Space for up to 14 guests. Your own base for discovering the best of southwest France.

We look forward to welcoming you.
