Vue du Château Gite





Sunrise.

The gite cottage faces east towards the Chateau de St germain de Confolens and catches the morning sunlight through the mezzanine's front window.

Sunset.

The patio at the rear of the cottage overlooks our rear meadow and is totally private. The only visitors are the wildlife. An added bonus is that it faces west so is perfect to watch the sunset and the darkness descend (no light pollution at all) and the many hawks (and occasional owl) hunt at this time.

The Gite Cottage is an 18c shepherds dwelling converted for modern living.

A short distance from the ruined Château de St Germain de Confolens and the valley and river Vienne.

Ideally situated to discover the areas around Saint-Germain-de-Confolens (16), Abzac (16), Esse (16), Confolens (16), Availles-Limouzine (86), Hiesse (16), Brillac (16), Ansac-sur-Vienne (16), Pressac (86), Oradour-Fanais (16), Lesterps (16), Épenède (16), Saint-Maurice-des-Lions (16), Gajoubert (87), Alloue (16), Millac (86), Bussière-Boffy (87), Manot (16), Ambernac (16), Pleuville (16), plus!
