Had the pleasure of staying here for 2 weeks with our teenage children. Cottage was fully equipped with everything you could possibly want or need. The welcome basket was very much appreciated. There was a library full to bursting with leaflets on things to do and places to see so we where never short of… Read more “Idyllic”

We’d had a really stressful start to our holiday due to an owner double booking the property we had booked. There was a group of 9 adults and 2 children and we had to find somewhere quick. Luckily we found this place and could not have been happier with the place. We took all 3… Read more “Amazing stay at this wonderful property”

Had a fantastic holiday. Camellia cottage is lovely and has everything that you could wish for and more. It’s a real home from home, fully equipped and spotlessley clean.

We have just returned from staying at Camellia Cottage at La Logerie. A beautiful place, full of character, great on site facilities for young and old. Great pool and plenty of space around to play. The children loved the animals, and feeding the chickens. The area has plenty to do within a short drive, the… Read more “Lovely property, in a great location”

We had a perfect holiday in Rose cottage at la Logerie .We are a family of 5 adults. The cottage was perfect ,very clean, well equipped with a great ambience. The swimming pool and the picturesque grounds were well maintained by the onsite perfect hosts /owners Brian and Gill. They were on hand to cope with any of our needs and were full of information about local history and where to visit. Thanks Brian and Gill , we will be back!

Rose Cottage was the perfect gite, for 8 our first week and 4 the second. The welcome pack was very generous with fresh bread and lovely wine. Extremely well equipped gite, very clean and welcoming, any issues/concerns dealt with very promptly by onsite owners.

Mauprevoir is a couple of minutes away by car for the boulangerie and small supermarket – if you wanted fresh croissants/pain-au-chocolat then Gill will bake and deliver hers direct to your door – delicious.

La Logerie has plenty of space for the children to play independently when in sight (there is a stream through the grounds) and the pool was a great hit. Rose cottage also had ample private space outside too.

The local area has plenty to see and do; rivers, castles, ancient towns. We had our bikes with us and the disused railway line behind the property was the ideal place for family bike rides (children are 6 & 7), we cycled as far as the lake at St Martin L’Ars (12Km return trip) and would love to go further.

Very tranquil spot with only a little traffic noise from locals and farm vehicles – mainly you hear the wind in the trees, the stream and the local wildlife.

Well worth the drive for a family holiday, manageable in a day from southern UK (took us around 8hrs with stops from gite to Calais by motorway).

We look forward to returning.

La Logerie is far and away the best self catering destination I have ever visited, this was my third visit. The cottage was beautiful and comfortable and excellently stocked with kitchenware etc. The owners were friendly and helpful, whilst entirely unobtrusive. We arrived full of good intentions to visit local towns but then couldn’t tear ourselves away from the pool! Thank you for a wonderful holiday – see you next year!

We spent two relaxing weeks at La Logerie. The gite was well equipped and very comfortable. There are lots of things for the kids to do such as the lovely (but chilly!) pool, trampoline, swings, badminton, playhouse, darts, table tennis and table football. The hot tub was wonderful in the evenings!

The owners are very welcoming and friendly and take great care of the gites and communal areas. The homemade cakes were very yummy and a real treat.

There was a very nice welcoming pack which we were grateful for as the journey had been a long one. Wine, tea, coffee, milk, OJ, eggs, bread, cheese etc.

La Logerie is in a very rural part of France, the nearby village of Mauprevoir has a small supermarket and bakery.
This was a really nice holiday for a family as we didn’t really need to explore anywhere, the children spent most of their time in the pool.

We stayed at la logerie at the end of July and what a brilliant holiday we had. We were there for a week but wished we’d booked two as it wasn’t long enough. We stayed in the beautiful rose cottage and wanted for nothing, it was a fully equipped and spotless. The kids loved the pool and there was even a hot tub !!! Sitting in the hot tub watching the sunset made us feel like celebs !!!

When we managed to pull our selves away from the pool we went to the lake at st Martin l’ars , saw the monkeys at valley de sanges and even took the kids horse riding. It was a fantastic holiday, Brian and Gill were really helpful and we will definitely be going back next year!

We were looking for a quiet week in rural France away from city life in the UK. On arrival we received a welcome pack of essential goodies to start the week, including of course some wine, we thought this a nice touch.

The cottage itself has been refurbished and maintained to a high standard whilst still retaining it’s character and the accomodation was very clean, the view from the patio over the paddocks is lovely.

La Logerie is set in a beautiful part of France and the site has a beautiful pool and hot tub, what a lovely way to round off a days site seeing with a nice glass of French wine.

Gill and Brian are lovely hosts and made us feel very welcome, thanks folks for a great week.

Very hospital hosts who provided a lovely welcome pack including eggs from their own chickens. Beautifully converted farm buildings, very clean and comfortable. Lots of supermarkets nearby. Picturesque places to visit such as Isle de Jourdan, Confolens, St Junien, Civray & Charroux. Even found a quaint cafe bar in Beneste whilst venturing around the country roads. Fabulous pool to cool off in, table tennis in the shade or even badminton when you can bear the heat and tennis in the local village. Clean cosy and comfortable with all you need to hand.

We were completely satisfied with Lavender Cottage near Mauprevoir. The facilities in and around the cottage were complete and the patio was perfect for breakfasts in the sun and dinners after we had been site-seeing all day and after a swim in the pool. Gill added her lavender touches to the cottage and Brian provided some local history. The area is excellent for country walks, interesting towns and supermarket shopping. We would love to return someday and we would recommend it to anyone.

When we rolled up at la Logerie we couldn’t believe our eyes. It was like a paradise hide away !!! a cluster of stone cottages and a beautiful pool and hot tub with the most amazing views. The cottage was well equipped with everything you could possibly need and a welcome pack full of goodies. It was peaceful but the local area had loads to do. I really don’t want to go home. Brian and Gill the owners are lovely and so helpful not to mention Gills croissants and pain au chocolates where the to die for. Will defiantly be coming back 🙂

This was one of the best holidays we have had. La Logerie is a fantastic place, picturesque surroundings with great facilities. We were given a warm welcome on arrival by Brian and Gill who are so friendly and helpful. The welcome pack of wine, bread, cheese etc was a wonderful touch which was very welcome after a long drive then a dip in the immaculate swimming pool was refreshing. The cottage was very clean and had literally everything you can want. The bed was very comfortable and the shower is great. There was a lovely patio with table, chairs and bbq which we tried out later with a glass of wine, the sun setting and Charles Trenet La Mer on ipad just wonderful! The was plenty to do for our young (8) daughter trampoline, badminton swimming, table tennis etc at La Logerie and she loved feeding the dwarf goats with Gill and playing with the cat. There is a big hot tub which again was great after a hard days eating and sightseeing.

There are plenty of lovely little towns nearby to buy great fresh bread from and nose around the daily markets. Gill very kindly helped us book a table at their favorite restaurant in Charroux, amazing service and French food. There is a supermarket at Savigne 10 mins down the road, with the help of Brian’s map, which has everything you need.

I would and have recommended this place to everyone I know it is a gem of a find for a holiday and we are very much looking forward to coming back next year with our new arrival thank you Gill and Brian for a wonderful holiday.

At lavender cottage you wake in the morning to the sunrise as you have breakfast on the terrace, after a comfortable nights sleep. The cottage and everything in it so clean and just perfect. The welcome package on arrival is the best we have had in the last ten years of travelling in France. After an early evening swim in the glorious beautifully maintained pool, you can relax watching the very kind and friendly owners, Brian & Gill feed their animals down in the paddocks from lavender cottages terrace with a glass of wine as the sun goes down. What a perfect end to a day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
