100 meters away from the river Charente, the Maison d'Elise is a 190 m2 big traditional house dating from the XIX century . The gîte will accomodate 6 people (3 bedrooms) in great comfort (2 bathrooms and 2 separate toilets) throughout the year as the house benefits from central heating and a working fireplace (wood provided).

The kitchen is equiped with all the modern comforts too: gas cooker, oven, dishwasher, micro-wave oven, fridge, toaster and kettle.

The downstairs bathroom also benefits from a washing mashine.

The garden is 420 m2 big and enclosed with stone walls. In the garden you will find a very large lawn and mixed borders. Parts of the lawn are sheltered from the sun thanks to the large walnut tree in the middle of the lawn. The garden provides a very safe area for children to play, a barbecue, a large table and chairs.

The playroom is 40 m2 large and contains a TV with French channels, games and mini table football. English channels can be provided to UK residents who bring their decoders with them by contacting a local installer who will realign the satelitte dish (cost available on request).

Une salle de jeux de 40 m2 (mini baby-foot, jeux de société, TV avec chaines françaises).
