Journet House | Charming former railway cottage in peaceful setting. Close to local amenities.

2 Bedroom House in Journet

Sleeps 4, with 2 bedrooms. One with double bed, one with twin beds.
La Braudière was built in the 19th century, to operate the barrier over the railway line. Nowadays, the railway tracks are just a distant memory, leaving miles of leafy, tree lined paths, meandering through woods and open countryside. A walker's paradise!
This charming stone cottage has been thoughtfully renovated, with lots of original features – a successful blend of original character and modern comfort. It is simply and tastefully furnished, and the overall effect is bright, light and fresh.
Set on its own, the house is surrounded by fields, tracks, rivers and woodlands, perfect for exploring by foot, by bike, or maybe walking the dog! You're not too far from civilisation, however, as only 2 kms away is the village of La Trimouille, where you will find a well stocked grocery shop (including bread and pastries), café/restaurant, post office, and cinema.
Located in the department of the Vienne, with its peaceful countryside, ancient castles and medieval towns and villages, La Braudière provides a brilliant base for a holiday. Enjoy the local amenities. Settle into the slower pace of French life with a leisurely amble through the lanes, rich with wildlife. Explore the many tourist attractions of the area. Or simply sit in the garden, with a glass of wine, enjoying the spectacular night skies. Whatever you enjoy, there is something for everyone.
Accommodation.
Airy and light filled living room. French television, DVD player and stereo system. Large selection of DVDs, plus CDs, books and games.

Summary: Joanne did everything to make our stay as nice as possible. She was thoughtful, friendly and a very nice host. She waited for us for the check in. And if we had questions about the area for example, we were free to ask. The house is cosy and everything was taken care of. We enjoyed the tiny villages in the surroundings, went for a swim in one of the lakes, did some hikes, watched the stars and when it was a bit chilly in the evening, we watched one of the DVD's. If you are thinking about going to this area, we would definitely recommed Joanne's little railwayhouse.

Summary: This really is a great place to stay- full of history. The Gite is so well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The beds are really comfy and sleeping in the peace and quiet was perfect. Although you feel you are surrounded by countryside it is only a short walk along a disused railway track to La Trimouille that has an amazing artisan bakery. Our dog loved all the walks and freedom. Joanne metis when we arrived and showed us around which was great after a long drive. She was always at the end of the phone if we needed any help. The surrounding area us full of beautiful villages and it really is a perfect place to stay. Thankyou Joanne- we highly recommend your Gite to everyone.

Summary: perfect location for us as we walked 2km each day to see my parents who live in La Trimouille. Very quick and clear communication with the host.
Kath Bayliss Jun 23, 2023 02:24:27 AM
Summary: Booked a week to explore the area and some quiet R&R. The house is lovely and set is an area not too far and walkable to the village but far enough to be as if in the middle of nowhere.

Summary: After a long drive down we were warmly greeted by Jo with a bottle of wine and nibbles to help us relax - thank you! This cottage is absolutely brilliant for local walks, and not too far away to get the groceries either (although the car is required). The house was perfect and had just what we needed - including peace and quiet, and very comfortable beds.

Summary: Great stay, lovely location esp if you have a dog. Very peaceful, nice house, good facilities and garden. Joanne was very helpful.
