Belle ferme du 16ème siècle avec une vue imprenable et piscine privée chauffée!

Excellent location, really gorgeous pool and spaces outside were perfect for us, we had four adults and five children between us and the youngest was kept safe as there is no access to the pool or the road if you keep the door and gates locked, which was really helpful. Our trips to Aubeterre were lovely and just a short drive away, sadly the restaurant in Montboyer was closed but we enjoyed making pizza outside and cooking lots of meat and salads. The children loved the pool! Jackie was really helpful and friendly and close by if we needed her!

Superb old farmhouse with a lovely garden in a great area for walking and it's dog-friendly too, such a bonus! It was really quiet and peaceful so if you need to chill out this is definitely for you. The house is really spacious, nicely furnished and as a keen cook I particularly loved the bright and practical kitchen. The local organic boulangerie at the bottom of the hill is to die for and there is a big, recently renovated supermarket about 6km away so no need to go far for food, another plus. The owner is very friendly and helpful and we had a thoroughly enjoyable break!

La propriétaire nous a gentiment prêté 2 vélos. Maison bien équipée. Deux toutes petites remarques : - piscine grande et chauffée mais de profondeur constante de 1,50m environ. - lits faits mais si possible, il serait souhaitable de discuter avant de l'occipation des chambres.

Très belle demeure, le charme de l’ancien rénové avec goût. Grande piscine chauffée et uniquement accessible par l’arrière de la maison (porte fermant à clé), parfait pour la sécurité des jeunes enfants. Très bien équipée, ping-pong, trampoline, cage de foot et jeux : idéal pour un séjour avec des enfants. Emplacement au calme au milieu des champs de tournesols. A 10 mn du charmant village d’Aubeterre sur drone et de la rivière. Nous reviendrons avec plaisir!

We had a fantastic summer break at Chez Gigon and will certainly return in the future. The cottage is very spacious and comfortable and you sometimes forget it's a 16th century farm building! The setting is perfect - even though there are neighbouring properties you wouldn't realise as it was so quiet and rarely heard anybody else. The surrounding countryside is so scenic with great views from so many places inside and outside. The pool area makes this property. We used it every day - ate every meal on the patio area as well as fun in the pool, and again so quiet and peaceful. Montboyer is a 10-15 minute walk away. Not a lot going on there but the restaurant is first class (recommend the pizzas) and they do takeaway. The boulangerie is great also and provided our breakfast every morning - it's a 10 minute walk down the hill towards Montboyer but it will take you longer to walk back (good fitness training walking back up the hill :-) ). Overall a fantastic stay and would highly recommend.

Chez Gigon is the most gorgeously decorated and located property in the south of France. We spent a very lazy week there with our two sons 15 18 years old. With it's own large private pool, games room, Wifi and plenty of space, they were never bored. The owners have thought of everything and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Montboyer is a beautiful, friendly village. We were surrounded by sunflowers and blue skies. Bliss! Thank you :O) xxx

We had a great two weeks at Montboyer. The house is well equipped and the grounds are very pleasant, with lots of areas to relax. Beautiful views to the surrounding countryside. We had a lot of fun riding bikes, exercising on the trampoline and swimming. The highlights included long walks and foraging for blackberries, daily trips to buy bread at an amazing bakery down the road (selling organic, sourdough and gluten free bread!), and visits to Cognac, Bordeaux, and many local vineyards.

We had an absolutely brilliant time in Montboyer. The house was very well equipped for two young families- there was lots to do in the house (swim,table tennis, boules etc) and it is a lovely, spacious home- it felt like we weren't on top of one another. We particularly enjoyed evenings outdoors, either on the terrace by the pool or in the small barn area. We stayed in Montboyer during the heatwave and we received great service from Charles who sought out two extra fans for us to help with sleep at night. The area surrounding the villa is gorgeous and we really enjoyed the views and the walks down to the bakery and the restaurant. The local restaurant is brilliant; the food is delicious and it is so reasonably priced! We enjoyed time in Aubeterre and Saint Aulaye nearby. We would recommend the villa without hesitation- the owner was always very welcoming and helpful before our stay. We had a fantastic two weeks there and we would love to return if the chance arises.
