Maison Rossignol: Private House and Heated Pool in Idyllic Rural Location

Maison Rossignol is set in the small hamlet of Flerac in the commune of Saint Georges Des Agouts. It is ideally situated just 5-10 minutes from junction 37 of the A10 autoroute at Mirambeau, yet in a blissfully quiet area surrounded by vineyards.

It offers open and spacious accommodation for up to 6 people. The accommodation is all on one floor, together with half an acre of open space offering fantastic views of the open countryside.

It has been fully renovated throughout with a heated swimming pool added in 2018 and further renovations. Exclusive use of house and pool. Not shared with anyone else.

In the Peak Summer Season, changeover days are Saturday and bookings are a minimum 7 day blocks.

Situated close to Mirambeau in the Charente Maritime, the house is ideally located to explore the golden sandy beaches near Meschers and Royan, the history and heritage of Saintes and the vineyards of Bordeaux and Cognac.

Bordeaux is just 45 mins drive away, with the Dordogne and Atlantic surfing beaches within easy reach too. Whether its rest or activity, family time or peace and quiet – you’ll be spoilt for choice.

About the House

Kitchen/Dining Area:
The fitted kitchen/diner is a large, light and airy open space. Offering everything you’d expect at home including programmable oven/hob, dishwasher, washing machine and a large American fridge freezer. The dining area comfortably seats 6 and looks out onto the front garden.

Living Room:
The large beamed room is ideal to retreat from the summer heat or to warm up on cooler evenings in front of the wood burning stove. There’s plenty of entertainment choice with TV & full fibre streaming, books, films and games (consoles and traditional).

En-suite Bedroom:
The vaulted ceiling and exposed local stone create a barn-like space for the king size bed, together with plenty of storage space in the wardrobe and chest of drawers.
A door leads through to the en-suite bathroom, finished with Italian shower, mosaic and marbled tiling throughout.

Bedroom 2:
Very spacious with large french windows. Twin beds, DVD player, clothes storage, bookcase and side tables.

Bedroom 3:
Very spacious with large french windows. Twin beds, DVD player, clothes storage, chest of drawers and side tables.

Shower room/WC
Renovated in 2020. Located across from the hallway from the other bedrooms, with a Italian walk-in shower with mosaic tiled floor, heated towel rail, WC and basin.

Outside
The garden extends to half an acre and wraps around the house, offering privacy and seclusion from the front, with a spectacular view across the hills and down to the Gironde valley.

The 10m X 5m heated pool catches the sun all day long, surrounded by plum, pear and walnut trees so there is also shade in various parts of the garden throughout the day.

Note: The Pool is closed from End October to early May each year.

The pool has roman steps at the shallow end making it easy to get in and out of. There is plenty of space around the pool, with sun loungers for the whole party,

There is also a driveway with ample parking space, a garage and courtyard area perfect for sunny boule matches.

Immediately outside the house is a graveled area with a very shallow small pond and a grassed area, adjacent to the main lawn.

Just outside the kitchen is the terrace which gets the sun all day and is perfect for al- fresco dining.

Fantastic short stay
My family and I had a fantastic stay here. The area was quiet and the garden spacious and the pool was fantastic . We barely left the property our whole time there and my kids never wanted to leave. David was extremely attentive, courteous and easy to deal with and was proactive in making sure we had what we needed, with everything very well planned out. Everything we had hoped for and we will be looking to return next summer if we can .

The house was clean and had everything we needed.The garden and swimming pool are very big and well maintained and I recommend sitting at one of the garden tables with a glass of wine to enjoy the view of the fields surrounding the house!Good communication with the owner for a stress free holiday. Thank you

An amazing find and perfect
We have just returned from a wonderful two-week holiday at Maison Rossignol. The house is exactly as described, comfortable and relaxing, with everything that you would need to make a pleasant stay possible. It is located so that accessing all the local places of interest is easy. The icing on the cake is the fabulous, heated pool, very welcoming after a day out in the unexpected September heat. The hosts David and Joanna are very proactive and a small issue with the pool cover was dealt with immediately. Maison Rossignol is ideal if you want a relaxing, quiet break in the countryside, but close enough to more comprehensive facilities.

The perfect rural hideaway
What a fabulous holiday house! A characterful property in stunning countryside with a wide range of amazing places to visit, assuming you can tear yourself away from the pool. We went for a family holiday and couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. The house is incredibly well equipped with plenty of space for the 4 of us, including the well tended and attractive gardens. The hosts were very gracious and great at communicating. Can't recommend highly enough.

A beautiful Charente house
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Charente Maritime and our stay in Maison Rossignol. Both the indoor and outdoor facilities are fabulous - particularly the private pool and the pool table. The kitchen is well resourced with everything you need away from home. The master bedroom and ensuite are outstanding. Thank you for sharing your beautiful gite with us.

Peaceful stay at Maison Rossignol
We had a wonderful, relaxing two weeks at the gite. It is very well kitted out with everything you could need, or want, including loads of games. We spent most of our time in or around the pool, as our three kids loved it. We were a little nervous about not having air-con with the heat in the mid 30s for half our stay, but following David's advice with the shutters, the house was amazingly cool! We really enjoyed Jonzac, with the night market a highlight, as well as the restaurant Comptoir Du Marche. David was very attentive and made sure we had no issues during our stay, as well as suggesting things to see and do. Wish we were still there!

Great place for a vacation
We had a great experience staying in the house. The house was well apportioned, the beds were really comfortable with good pillows and duvets, and the two toilets and bathrooms were well equipped. We really enjoyed the swimming pool, although we did struggle a bit getting the cover off the first few times. The information provided is very useful, and we tried one of the restaurants on the list. We headed to Blaye a few days, both to take the ferry over to the Medoc region, but we also had dinner a few times up in the old citadel, which we recommend. There was a nice welcome pack for us when we arrived, and the owners were very responsive. At some stage there was a problem with the lights in the second bathroom, they advised us of that and that they hoped to have it fixed before our arrival, and they then contacted us again before arrival letting us know that the issue had been fixed. We would definitely consider the place again if we were in that region.
