the holiday home "l'Homme de l'Épine" in Cellefrouin (Charente, FR)
It was a wonderful holiday!
Steven uit Diepenbeek (BE) schreef in July 2021 op Livre d'or :
We stayed in the house with 9 people: what a fun experience! Everything was in tip-top order, the kitchen fully equipped with even a food processor and 2(!) dishwashers. The spaces are very spacious, the living area in particular is a ballroom. The covered terrace is definitely a plus; you can still sit outside perfectly well when it rains. The swimming pool was lovely and there are plenty of sun loungers and water toys.
Great weekend with the family

What a fantastic holiday home in a very quiet area. An ideal base for walking and cycling. Ann and Filip have furnished the house stylishly, and it was spotless upon arrival. We cooled off in the large swimming pool. We often spent time on the large terrace with its beautiful view until the late hours. The kitchen is equipped with 2 dishwashers and 2 fridges, which was ideal for our large group. In short, the ideal holiday home for families or groups seeking peace and quiet.
