La Vache at Gites La Vieille Grange

Welcome you to Gites La Vieille Grange and La Vache, an adults only holiday cottage with charming exposed beams, stone walls and private wood-fired hot tub.

Created from an old French barn, our self-catering cottages are in a relaxing, peaceful rural location surrounded by fields and woodland in a small pretty village located in Western France. You will find us in Champniers located in Western France in the beautiful department of Vienne. A great base for exploring and discovering the many attractions that the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region has to offer.

Kitchen and dining:
Explore and enjoy the amazing fresh local produce that France has to offer in your well-equipped kitchen! There is everything you need to create your next culinary masterpiece, including: hob and oven, washing machine, dishwasher, fridge-freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster and cafetière. If you don’t fancy eating alfresco, there is a dining table and chairs perfect for two.

Living room:
In the beamed living area (where the cow used to live!) relax on the comfy sofa, make full use of the TV and DVD player or use the area to chill out and play a game. Help yourself to the library of books, games and DVDs – perfect for helping you to unwind!

Bedroom
After a day of relaxing in the hot tub or exploring the local area, enjoy a restful sleep in the upstairs bedroom complete with exposed beams and a roof window. Our bedding is sustainably made, hypoallergenic, cruelty free and vegan! It mimics the lightness and fluffiness of luxury down, but is much kinder to our planet. Our sustainably sourced cotton covers will give you that hugged-by-a-cloud feel, just close the blackout blind and sleep easy! The room is tastefully decorated in a French style with antique furniture sourced from local brocantes. It has a comfortable French double bed, dressing table with mirror, small wardrobe, chest of drawers and bedside tables with lamps.

Bathroom
The downstairs bathroom has a large walk-in rainfall shower, toilet and a unique free-standing washbasin. Towels are made from ethically-sourced cotton which have a ‘zero-twist’ weave for a velvety smooth finish, no rough scratchy cotton here, perfect for sensitive skin!

Courtyard and outside
Immediately outside the front of La Vache, is a pretty area screened by trellis and beautiful fragrant flowers giving you the privacy to relax, eat, drink or dunk in the tub. There is a bistro table and sun loungers for two so there’s no need to go very far! You also have access to the shared hangar area equipped with an old-school bar, comfy seating, dart board and an honesty fridge stocked with locally sourced beer and wine!

Private hot tub:
What could be better than relaxing your body and mind in your very own private hot tub with bubbles and lights perfect for two? The wood-fired tub is just a few steps from your front door in your pretty courtyard, so you will never be too far away from your next cold drink. Why not take a cool dip on sunny days or chuck some logs on for a romantic evening under the stars and let the stress and strains of everyday life gently slip away? Switch off from your daily routine dominated by modern technologies. Reconnect with nature in your outdoor eco-friendly hot tub and create an unforgettable experience with your loved ones.
