The Farmhouse

Tailliveaux is available for self-catering or semi-catered holidays from June to mid-September each year or Bed & Breakfast rooms can be booked out of season. Evening meals are possible on request.

Tailliveaux has a spacious lounge which is extremely comfortable and cosy. Book lovers and music lovers will find plenty to amuse them in the substantial library and amongst the selection of cassettes, CDs, and a piano.

The lounge also has a wood-burning stove with a supply of logs at the ready for use on dull days.

The kitchen is part of a large, open-plan living room with a sitting area and a dining area. The sitting area is at one end of the room and is furnished with a sofa and an old Welsh rocking chair. Also provided are a radio, a television with video and DVD players and a range of DVDs and videos to choose from (you may like to bring your own Sky card).

The dining area is at the opposite end of the room and is furnished with a dining table which seats up to eight people.

The kitchen area is well equipped with a microwave, a dishwasher, a washing machine, a tumble dryer, a coffee percolator, an electric mixer and an electric whisk. The kitchen area also has a wood-burning stove with a supply of logs.

The three bedrooms on the first floor are furnished with double beds - and one can be rearranged as a two-bedded room if necessary.

Gardens

Tailliveaux is set amidst gorgeous gardens which are surrounded by the idyllic Charente countryside. Guests are welcome to swim in the swimming pool, picnic by the pond or saunter through the rose-covered walkway and explore the gardens.

The swimming pool is hidden within the walls of an old barn.
The pool is only accessible via heavy barn doors which are kept bolted shut - and the bolts are well out of the reach of children.

Enclosed within four stone walls, the acoustics of the pool area give a feeling of genuine seclusion and privacy. Sun loungers and a picnic table with a parasol are provided, as is a large inflatable children's pool for any smaller children who just want to splash about a bit in the water.

Charente accommodation with pool gite with large gardens al fresco on the patio

Away from the farmhouse is a delightful lily pond, home to several goldfish and a multitude of noisy frogs.

Various benches and seats have been provided throughout the gardens, ensuring that guests can relax and unwind as much as possible in the peaceful surroundings. There is even a day bed hidden away under the trees.

If you enjoy dining alfresco, the Farmhouse has a lovely shingle terrace which is ideal for sunny breakfasts, lazy lunches, early evening aperitifs and tasty twilight barbecues.

Residential courses

Out of season art and music courses are run in association with resident tutors.

Residential courses in the Alexander Technique are also offered out of season.
