Charming 4 Bedroom 4 Bathroom Gite - 2 Adjoining Cottages - Heated Plunge Pool

Maison La Roche Gite is 2 small stone cottages adjoined to create 1 larger accommodation with 4 bedrooms and 4 Bathrooms..

Each cottage has 2 bedrooms and 2 shower rooms (4 bedrooms 4 bathrooms in total). There are 2 well-equipped kitchens with dishwashers, etc., 2 living rooms, 2 TVs, etc.
Free WiFi throughout.

There are 4 bedrooms in total, 1 is downstairs and has a double bed (150x200) ideal for anyone who may struggle with stairs or has mobility issues. Upstairs in that cottage there is another bedroom which has a King Size bed (160x200), this cottage has a shower room downstairs and an ensuite shower room upstairs.

The cottage next door is slightly larger and serves as a B&B outside of the summer months. It has both bedrooms upstairs and both have en-suite shower rooms. The double room has a 160x200cm bed. The second room has the option of a Super kingsize 180x200cm bed or 2 90x200cm single beds.

Ceiling fans are fitted in the upstairs bedrooms and we find that the cottages usually stay nice and cool during the summer if the doors and windows are closed during the heat of the day.

All linen and indoor towels (please bring your own pool towel!) are provided and your beds are made up and ready for you on arrival.

The main dining areas are outside 1 covered in the courtyard at the back of the properties and 1 in the garden under the pergola which provides some shade from the summer sun.
The garden is fully enclosed and located just across the quiet residents lane (5 metres)from the Gite. It has a private 4m Plunge Pool (Heated from 15 May until end September weather permitting ie. Over 20 degrees celsius) which is for the exclusive use of Gite guests only. The pool is intended as a cooling off only and is not suitable for swimming, we have a larger newly refurbed in 2023 municipal pool with slide approx 1km walk from the Gite should you require swimming for exercise.

There are lots of seating areas around the garden so that you can relax in the sun or the shade.

We do welcome up to 2 well behaved dogs by prior agreement. There is an extra charge of 50 euros per stay for dogs. We unfortunately do not accept heavy shedding breeds during the summer.

The Gite is located in a wonderful area with lots of walks and great bike rides available to you. (We can recommend good bike hire companies or bring your own bikes). We are located just 200 metres from the River Vienne and there are many activities close by including Bungee Jumping, zip lining, climbing confidence courses, kayaking, stand up paddle boarding and lots more. Further away we have the wonderful town of Chauvigny with its Antique markets and old historic town up on the hill well worth a day visit. We have the historic town of Montmorillon within 30 minutes drive and Poitiers and Limoges approx 1 hour drive from the Gite with the famous Futuroscope in Poitiers. There is also the fabulous Valley of the Monkeys approx 30 minutes drive away which is well worth a day out visit the Chimpanzees, Gorillas, Orangutans and much more.

There are 3 restaurants within 500 metres of the Gite which cater for most needs during the summer:

The Restaurant- Les Reflets de La Vienne, situated close to the River Vienne and facing the spectacular Viaduct. They offer a daily Menu du jour which is excellent and a good selection for the evenings, they also always offer a Vegetarian/Vegan option!! A fabulous place to unwind and watch the world go buy, enjoy the terrace for drinks, a meal or both. Situated just 400 meters walk from the Gite.
Address: 22 route du Viaduc, 86150, Bourpeuil, Le Vigeant. Tel: 05 49 91 81 21

There is a bar/restaurant La Viaduc just 200 metres walk from the cottage which is also a Tabac. They serve very nice Pizzas, Burgers and Steaks and much more and are open everyday (except Sunday) from mid April until End of September. Arrive before 8pm if you want to order food.
Address: Rue Alexandre Bessaguet, 86150, Bourpeuil, Le Vigeant.
Tel: 05 49 48 42 54

Down the hill from the Viaduc Restaurant/bar there is another restaurant called La Barrage which is open most lunch times and most Friday and Saturday evenings in summer with a popular Fish and Chips night every first Friday of the month. Please book in advance.
Address: 1 Place des Tanneries, 86150, Bourpeuil, Le Vigeant

For more restaurants and bars you can walk into L'isle Jourdain across the river or the Viaduct approximately 1km from the Gite.

A little piece of Paradise.
We have just spent a wonderful fourteen days staying in this impressive place. It was clean, very well equipped and fit for purpose. The courtyard with covered dining area and “plancha grill” for outdoor cooking were a great bonus. An impressive garden and plunge pool was also most appreciated. The host, Jo, was available personally or by phone to answer any questions. Her advice and guidance on local events and places to visit was invaluable. We look forward to returning soon. Ian.

Perfect getaway
The place was ideal for us. It had the most amazing outdoor areas where we could dine and gather to relax. Temperatures reached 38 degrees and the pool area and decking had plenty of shade and beautiful views looking over the river in the distance. There were two BBQ areas and the kitchen had everything you needed. You could walk to the town where there were a number of restaurants and a short drive across the river to a local supermarket. Highly recommend.

Delightful holiday home in a beautiful French river town
We spent a week at this lovely holiday home. It's comprised of 2 2-bedroomed cottages attached to each other but with separate kitchen and bathroom facilities. This worked brilliantly for our family of 3 teenagers and 2 adults., plus our dog. There's a beautiful courtyard as well as stunning garden with bbq, large decking area and plunge pool. The facilities are excellently appointed with everything we needed, and everything was very clean. The house is located within walking distance of the delightful town, river and a great disused railway line for long stunning walks. We couldn't rate this place more highly. The owners Jo and Jamshid were absolutely lovely and very helpful. Plus, they love dogs!! We would love to visit again. Perfect!

Ne vous posez plus de questions, foncé !!!
Joanne est une hôte très à l'écoute de ses locataires, très disponible et réactive. Le gite est décoré avec beaucoup de gout et bien entretenu. Nous y avons passé 3 semaines de vacance en famille et avons apprécié le jardin avec sa piscine chauffée et tout particulièrement sa cour intérieure. Nous recommandons sans hésitation ce gite.

Bon séjour malgré le mauvais temps
2 gites, un grand très atypique et un plus petit, tous les 2 décorés avec goût, que nous avons réunis pour accueillir notre famille pendant 1 semaine. Hélas, la météo détestable nous a empêchés d'apprécier le très beau jardin entretenu avec soin, avec la piscine, des transats, la table pour déjeuner ou dîner et sa terrasse offrant une belle vue. Nous avons de fait passé plus de temps à l'intérieur que prévu tout en bénéficiant de la cour privée partiellement couverte, bien équipée elle aussi (table pour déjeuner ou dîner, salon de jardin, hamac, transats) et joliment fleurie. Merci à nos hôtes pour leurs gentilles attentions pour nous les grands (bouteille de vin, café, jus d'orange, ...) pour nos petits (gâteaux, petites chaises de jardin achetées tout exprès) et enfin pour nos chiens (gamelle d'eau fraîche à l'arrivée, friandises). Merci également de nous avoir autorisés à utiliser leur jacuzzi privé pour "remplacer" la piscine à cause de la météo trop fraîche et pluvieuse. Une petite suggestion : une barrière de sécurité en haut de l'escalier du grand gîte serait la bienvenue pour tranquilliser les parents de jeunes enfants
