Holiday house


Le Petit Pezet is quietly situated on the edge of a small valley and overlooks a secluded park. Space, space, space is what you get here; Four acres of gently sloping lawns bordered by mature woodland trees, six acres of private woodland and a large (15mx6m) private swimming pool at the bottom of the garden (open May to October). It's a really beautiful place.

The stone main house is an old farmhouse with a converted barn that has been lovingly restored by the 'Medecin de Village' and his wife who lived there for many years. It is a modern typical 'Maison Charentaise' which is full of period character with high ceilings with exposed oak beams, huge fireplaces and old stonework.

The stone main house comfortably sleeps six adults on two floors in three spacious bedrooms with double beds and en-suite bathrooms and four children in two bedrooms in the attic, with a stylish shared bathroom. The more modern annex sleeps four adults in two bedrooms with double beds and en-suite bathrooms. The entire property sleeps up to 14 guests plus infants. The prices you see are for 10 people in the main house. For the 4 extra guests in the guesthouse there is a surcharge per night and extra cleaning.

Location & area recommendations

Additional information

Petit Pezet is located just outside the hilltop village of Brossac, surrounded by the rolling fields of sunflowers, pine forests and vineyards that characterize the 'department' of the rural Charente. The Charente is generally recognized as one of the sunniest climates in Western Europe thanks to the warm Gulf Stream. You can walk for hours in the area on hiking trails, but the small roads are also super quiet.

Part of the Cognac arrondissement, Brossac is the main village (Chef-Lieu) of a collection of smaller picturesque villages. It has a locally renowned butcher (in addition to excellent meat, he also offers delicious home-made dishes that only need to be heated up!), a bakery, a pharmacy, a post office, a bank and a SPAR supermarket. There is now also a doctor's practice and 2 charging points for electric cars. Brossac is a 3 minute drive, 7/8 minute bike ride or 15 minute walk from the house. Every Saturday morning there is a market on the square from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. where you can buy local products and even oysters.

Things to do

Brossac is an hour's drive from the cosmopolitan city of Bordeaux and 1.5 hours from the beaches of the Atlantic coast. The thriving market town of Chalais is within easy reach (10 minutes drive) with a weekly food and craft market and the idyllic village of Aubeterre-Sur-Dronne (recognized as 'one of the most beautiful villages in France') is on the border of the Dordogne (20 minutes drive).
Many of the local 'domains' offer Pineau and wine tours and tastings. Pineau is a fortified wine and is the prized regional aperitif. The nearby famous town of Cognac (50 minutes drive) also offers tours of the famous Cognac houses.
There is an abundance of local walking and cycling trails. Kayaking on the Charente River is forever popular and both horse riding and tennis are easily arranged.

The nearby (2 km) Etang Vallier Lakeside Resort offers a secluded beach setting with a clubhouse, bar/restaurant and mini golf. The lake is also ideal for paddle boarding.
