Chez Beaugis

Rose18 UK
Review Submitted: August 2, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We had a great time. It was like home from home with full wireless signal and English telly! My parents thought the cottage was very stylish. We loved the pet cats and dog. We were also able to use their bikes. We would love to go back.
Owner's Response: Thank you girls so much for taking the time to send us such a lovely reveiw.
It is so rewarding for us when the whole family enjoys our holiday home. We have tried to cater for all ages, and when you get such a lovely review from teenagers, we feel that we have got the balance right and we will keep working to maintain it.
We would love to welcome you all back in the furture.

One of the best holidays

Cat2805 London
Review Submitted: September 1, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
I stayed at Chez Beaugis with 2 children and 2 adults, the cottage was amazing (the UK TV went down well with the children) the pool was perfect as was the grounds, the dog and cats were an added bonus which kept my 4 year old happy for hours (a dog is now on her Christmas list!). Ken and Lynn and lovely and so helpful, after a long drive to get there we were met with a lovely basket of food including the all important bottle of wine, which went down very well. The town centre which is a 5 min drive has everything you need including a lovely pizza restaurant, there is a lovely play ground to keep the kids occupied in before going to the supermarket, the supermarket has everything you could need, just keep an eye out for the opening and closing times as most of the shops tend to close at 7pm. We can’t wait to go back.

Simply The Best

Happy- Family Henley-on-Thames
Review Submitted: August 31, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We have stayed in a number of gites over the years and this was simply the best. Fantastic to arrive hot & tired and have cold beer & wine as part of the welcome pack! Gite was superbly equipped & cool in hot weather. Lynn & Ken very helpful & hospitable. Beautiful location, lovely gardenwith lots of sun & shade, great to relax in the pool watching butterflies on the buddleia. Excellent restaurants & well stocked supermarkets nearby & amazing pain au raisin at local patisserie. We all had a wonderful, relaxing holiday and hope to return.

Superb Holiday Cottage

Jim & Liz Hazlemere, Bucks UK
Review Submitted: August 23, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
As soon as we arrived we knew we had found a lovely cottage. We received a very warm welcome from Lynn and Ken, they are the perfect hosts.Everything was just as it said it would be.

Ideal location for touring the area. Golf de la Preze (great golf course) is about 20 minutes away. Brantome is also worth a visit especially on a Friday when the market is in full swing.

Can't wait until our next visit in October. Definetly one to recommend.

Superb Holiday Cottage

Steven, Jo and Family Brigg, North Lincolnshire, UK
Review Submitted: August 7, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Thank you for delivering everything your promised in the website. Everything was exactly as Lynn and Ken described, the cottage excellent and very nicely presented with a very warm welcome.

Charente is a lovely, quiet area with plenty of places to visit to keep the family (including 3 teenagers) happy and within easy reach of the ports.

We will have no hesitation in returning when our stress levels overload once again.

Thankyou

Steven, Jo and Family
