What can I say, absolutely wonderful accommodation in a beautiful part of France! Our hosts were so accommodating; there if we needed them but not at all intrusive. Our breath was quite literally taken away by the stunning view across open fields when we arrived and we ended up spending many nights watching mesmerising sunsets accompanied by glasses of cheap but delicious wine. Although a little chilly in April, my Dad braved the pool and we all enjoyed playing darts and boules on the gravelled outside area. Inside, the main living area is open and spacious with plenty of seating. The kitchen is well equipped with every possible utensil and the ample table is more than big enough if the house is full. All of the bedrooms and bathrooms were immaculately clean and tidy with comfortable beds. The property is ideally situated close to both Angouleme (perfect for a wander and containing many high street stores) and Chalais (visit the market on a Monday). Aubeterre is also beautiful and perfect for a morning or afternoon out. Our favourite times though were spent sitting outside the property in the peace and quiet..it’s the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of every day life.

We had a fantastic week at Les Hirondelles in August 2018. We are a group of 11 of us (3 families) who have been holidaying together for many years and so have experienced many villas in France. This is our favourite by far! The views are just incredible. There was lots of time spent around the pool, exploring in the fields and many an hour spent playing games in the hanger. We also enjoyed a great day at Aubeterre (just down the road) visiting the underground church and having fun at the river beach. Supermarket also very convenient. Lesley and Toby were fantastic hosts. They gave us our privacy whilst being on hand to change a bulb etc - they couldn't be more helpful. The most impressive being us messing in passing that a small bit of decking board was slightly loose. It was fixed the next morning!! We will definitely be returning. Thank you.

Can't recommend this gites highly enough. Excellent facilities and location. Everything you could need provided or available locally. Peaceful, quiet , relaxing. Loads of room ,space etc. Local village for morning supplies , local attractions. Visit Aubeterre sur Dronne , Villebois lavalette. Great restaurants, La Lavatelle and Le Terrace. The bistro in Monmoreau. The Cognac /Pineau vineyard in Bors is a must. Great hosts. Definitely needs visiting again.

We had the most wonderful time here. The location is beautiful and accomodation was clean, spacious and very comfortable. We had everything we needed and Toby and Lesley were delightful and happy to help if we needed. The pool is great and the outdoor area is perfect for al fresco dinning or an evening drink as the sun goes down. I will definitely be returning.

Tons of space; loads of detail. Beautifully decorated. Pool was stunning. Everything we needed had been carefully thought through and provided. Hosts were delightful. We will be back. No question.

Our first mistake was only staying a week at this fantastic location. The first thing we noticed was the panoramic view - not the sweeping Dordogne hills, but the actual size of the lounge area. The images on the website do not do it justice. We are a family of six adults and avoided tripping over one another in this ample sized property. The English owners who live in the adjoining property were on hand to answer our queries and share local tips on where to go and what to see. The house is nestled in an area peppered with pretty villages with cosy restaurants and quaint bars. Bordeaux is just over an hour away and the Cognac area is about 40 minutes to the north. We avoided the expensive and rather sterile tours offered by the famous cognac houses, opting instead to take Leslie’s advice (one of the owners) and visit a local independent Cognac producer. A memorable morning was spent sampling his Cognacs and excellent sparkling fizz, resulting in us purchasing several cases - very good value. Having spent a short time at the property I can highly recommend it along with the professionalism of its owners, Leslie and Toby.

I was tasked with organising a family holiday for 10. I searched the internet for hours trying to find somewhere suitable and settled with Les Hirondelles. It turned out to be a fantastic choice! The gite is clean, comfortable and suitable for all ages. The kitchen is well equiped, the pool is a good size and gated/alarmed to ensure the kids were safe. The real highlight for us was the covered outside area. We barbequed most nights and ate outside taking in the stunning views while watching the sun go down. Lesley and Toby were so friendly, communicative and helpful. We were lucky to have some great weather too so had days out to Royan beach, La Jemaye lake and a few local towns. We really couldn't have asked for a better week and have made memories to last a lifetime. Stop searching, this is a real find!
