We look forward to welcoming you to 'Le Lievre', our privately owned gite/holiday home in the heart of the Charentais countryside. Our stunningly converted little stone barn offers the most magnificent views over the countryside and an amazing sense of peace and tranquility and being at one with nature. There are plenty of the original oak beams on show along with exposed charentais stone walls, all adding to the incredible charm of this property. There is a spacious and stylish mezzanine bedroom with double doors leading to a balcony with views over the valley and forests beyond with en-suite shower room. There are two sets of double doors, leading from the lounge and dining kitchen to a large deck with far reaching, magnificent views and with dining table and sun loungers. What could be better than chilling with a cold glass of wine whilst taking in all nature has to offer. The lounge has a wood burning stove for cosy winter evenings and this leads to a well equipped dining kitchen where on long summer evenings dining al fresco is a must and a pure joy. Watching the deer meander across the sunflower fields, listening to the birdsong and if you are lucky watching the wild boar foraging in the woods just adds to the amazing sense of tranquility and being at one with nature. For anyone keen on keen on stargazing, the night skies are truly magnificent and you are sure to see the most spectacular sunsets. As you enter Le Lievre you will see the lovely little walled courtyard, where you can take your morning coffee under the shade of our old walnut tree. There are many beautiful walks from the doorstep, some wonderful cycling and we offer private parking. In the cooler months we supply 1/4 cube of wood free of charge and if you require more then we charge what our supplier has charged us for that year.
