Cosy 2 bedroom gite, perfect for families - in Chalais, Charente - L’atelier du Bouton Reviews

We stayed at La Tannerie for a week and absolutely loved it, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone for the location and the hosts, Jen and and Ken. They were perfect hosts, respected our privacy but also informed us of the many things to do in the area, and more than happy to make reservations on your behalf. The gite was well equipped, clean and spacious. It also had a shady terrace perfect for BBQing and apero! The pool area was the perfect place to relax. We had great fun playing badminton and table tennis too. Perfectly located in a town, close to amenities such as supermarket, Boulangerie, restaurants, it was so peaceful in the gardens. The Monday market was great. Lovely nights too close by.
Although there are 2 other gites, it is so private and quiet but also perfect for more than 1 family! We are trying to convince our friends to join us for a week next summer!
Further afield we visited Bordeaux for the day, aubeterre-sur-drone is a plus beaux village and worth a look, Brantôme is a fave of ours too.
One word of warning make sure you pack lots of mosquito repellent!
