Courgeac House | Stunning Barn Conversion with Private Pool

6 Bedroom House in Courgeac

Grange Lapin is a large and beautifully renovated stone barn located in a stunning and tranquil location with far reaching views over the French countryside. The night sky is amazing with no light pollution so is a star gazers dream! The barn is fully equipped with all the modern facilities, yet still retains the character features of huge oak beams and Charentais stone walls. There are breathtaking views from every room, and the well established, spacious garden leads in to the surrounding countryside. The 10.5 x 5.5 m pool is totally private to the property and surrounded by a decking patio with plenty of space for sun bathing with views over the fields and forests beyond. The pool has an alarm system and is fenced with lovely cast iron fencing, so is very safe for children. The property can sleep up to 14 people plus cot and is extremely spacious both inside and out and makes for an inexpensive option for a large family or group get together.
The stunning town of Aubeterre sur Dronne is only 15 minutes away with its unusual Romanesque monolithic underground church and voted one of the most beautiful villages in France.

Summary: What a gorgeous Gite with stunning views across the countryside it had everything I could need for a short trip. Lesley and Toby were so helpful that I would like to thank them as everybody all 15 of us had the most amazing time.

kevin m. Nov 12, 2019 03:43:53 PM

Summary: A wonderful house will lots of different spaces for the whole family to enjoy. Excellent location if in need for a family detox - as we did!

Patricia G. Jun 11, 2019 04:40:52 AM

Summary: Communication and flexibility were superb, accommodation immaculate and exactly as described and pictured, if not better. The welcome pack was much appreciated. The location is delightful, peaceful and beautiful, the pool super, with attractive villages nearby and convenient supermarket. A wonderful holiday. Our thanks to Lesley and Toby

Summary: Property owners Lesley and Toby were always prompt and courteous with respect to communication , and helpful and flexible with our needs. The arrival pack of food and wine was really welcome after a long journey, and the premises immaculately clean. The accommodation was brilliant, with lots of room (and bathrooms!) for all 8 of us. The swimming pool was crystal clean, and the views from every room stunning. Grange Lapin is located in a peaceful little spot with only one or two other occupied properties in the vicinity, and a short drive to the local supermarket, plus some pretty villages nearby, where I gather there are good restaurants. However, life at Grange Lapin was so perfect we were quite happy to pretty much stay put! Thank you Lesley and Toby

Summary: This is a very pretty converted stone barn in a peaceful and quite stunningly beautiful setting. It really is as good as it looks in the photographs. We just missed the sunflowers, but the view was still wonderful and we all miss looking out on it in the mornings. The sunsets and night skies were fantastic as well. We did test the facilities to the limit with a group of 14 adults. Some ingenuity was required on the part of the cooks to produce breakfast, lunch and a three course evening meal for all, but we did manage. A slightly smaller group or one including some children would suit the property ideally. The property is very well maintained and was immaculately clean. We loved the open plan layout, which meant no one ever felt excluded or shut off from whatever was going on. It’s a great area, with a wide range of activities to suit everyone. We had a fantastic time, finding something different to do every day - I won’t list all of the options here because others have covered the subject elsewhere. Lesley and Toby were lovely and always available without being obtrusive in any way. As a group we have holidayed in France for many years now and this was definitely our best yet.

Summary: It's very hard to know where to begin the review for this fabulous property. First, let me say that I have never worked with more responsive and pleasant owners. We frequently rent homes overseas (this is our 8th in 5 years) and the key to happiness really is the responsiveness and knowledge of the area that the owners have. In this respect, Toby and Lesley are without peers. The property is spotless and very well maintained, along with being very comfortable. It's well priced and spacious. Another noteworthy aspect is the incredible accuracy of the property description that Toby and Lesley provide. The pictures are spot on, the verbal description is precise, and they will answer absolutely any question you have prior to rental promptly, courteously and with valuable information. Upon arrival they provide a welcome basket that easily can get you through the evening until you can get to the store the next day. The property itself is beyond gorgeous. You are surrounded by acres of wooded land, fields, vineyards and lanes to walk. While a car is necessary, that car gives you access to many lovely towns. Our favorites were Auberge Sur Dronne, Villebois Lavalette, Riberac, Royan, Chalais, St. Emilion, Jonzac and Brantome. We enjoyed numerous wine and cognac tastings just by dropping in to open vineyards and distilleries and found the food in every restaurant we ate in to be amazing. All the fresh cheeses available in the area are splendid. Since we were there for 2 weeks in October, there were no crowds, the driving was easy and the scenery spectacular. Whether you are travelling with family (as we were, 12 different guests each week) with friends or on your own, I can't say enough good things about this home. We have not a single negative thing to say, and would urge anyone who wants to experience life in the French countryside to choose this rental. You absolutely will not be sorry. Meeting Toby and Lesley added to the experience and we hope to return some day.

Summary: The pictures of the property looked amazing but the reality actually exceeded our expectations! The gite has been lovingly renovated to the highest standard, retaining a warm rustic character whilst affording all the comforts we crave when escaping from everyday life - a real 'home from home'. All the rooms were clean & thoughtfully presented, and ours had fabulous views over the stunning surrounding scenery. The well equipped kitchen had everything we needed, & the lounge & dining areas were spacious & comfortble. But it was the outside space which really sets this place apart ... truly tranquil with uninterrupted views, the perfect place to sit and relax with our friends. Lesley and Toby were the perfect hosts and we hope to be back very soon.

Summary: Had a fantastic holiday in a lovely house. The house was spacious, clean and tidy. The pool was cleaned twice while we were there and everything worked as it should. Also the owners had left us a super welcome pack of food and drink, which was a nice touch. Would stay there again and recommend it for families.

Peter R. Jun 20, 2017 06:02:54 AM

Summary: This was a brilliant place to stay. The view was splendid, the facilities excellent and the owners were very helpful and unobtrusive. There were lovely places to see in the area and we would have no hesitation in recommending it to others.

Tracy C. May 25, 2017 01:31:13 AM

Summary: A group of 10 friends spent a weekend out of season in this stunning gite. From arrival to departure Toby and Lesley made us feel extremely welcome and offered an exceptional stay. The property is beautifully renovated with great attention to detail and lacks nothing. The rooms are spacious and well equipped. The views are to die for and although the weather didn't really encourage us to use the pool, it did look beautiful. Nothing more to say except 'bravo' and 10/10!
