Aulnay Vacation Rentals

"Excellent. Stunning location. Surrounded by water. A real get away from it all property. Huge plot surrounded by the river which wraps around the site, under and adjacent to the house. Watch kingfishers from the kitchen. Fish for pike, perch, trout and chub in the river which is teaming with fish. The interior is much better than the photographs suggest. There is little to do in the village as it is a very rural area but there are limited facilities in the next village Dampierre-sur-Boutonne which has a friendly little shop which sells basics but also sells beer and wine and pizzas ( very nice) and has a few tables and chairs where you can have a drink and mix with other tourists and locals. Good shopping nearby at Intermarché at Aulnay and even better at St Jean d’Angely where everything can be found including a good veterinary clinic. We drove from England and it is a long way but was well worth it. Unfortunately the weather was mixed and there is little to entertain you if the weather is poor as it is very rural. We had a great holiday and can recommend this property fully. The house is secure, hidden out of the way and very comfortable with good facilities, good WiFi, well equipped and presented. If you like birdwatching and fishing this is heaven. For anglers we caught good sized fish on fly, worms , maggots and lures. Bait is available in a fridge in the supermarket at Aulnay and a decent selection of tackle including lures, lines, hooks etc. Tight lines! "

"Lovely place, farm buildings reconverted to a good standard, divisions quite spacious, lots of historical objects. Good costumer service, supported us with our late check-in. "

"The farmhouse and cottage were perfect for accommodating our group of 11 people comfortably. The house was clean, spacious and nicely furnished with excellent cookware available to use. The pool is a perfect size and temperature for relaxing and playing. The games barn was enjoyed by the teenagers in our group. The Farmhouse is situated in a very small, quiet village but there are small towns a ten minute drive in either direction with large supermarkets, restaurants etc. I would definitely recommend it for groups looking for a peaceful, fun holiday.

"Absolutly stunning property located in a quiet town, the pictures do not do the property justice exteamly large rooms adequate for a large amount of people, we spent 2 weeks in the property and were able to explore multiple locations all within 30 to 40 min drive away, and if you dont feel like driving there is a train station 2 minutes away allowing you to get around, all of the rooms have been carefully thought about keeping with the the age of the property, this has been one of the best places we have stayed in in some years and i would deffinatly recommend to other thinking of visiting"

"A wonderful house in substantial grounds. There isn’t a bad room: all are spacious and beautifully kept. The communal spaces are also great. The pool is stunning: without question the best pool we have ever had at a private holiday property. So deep you can properly dive in. The area has some decent towns and the beach is a brief drive. The owner was wonderful at communicating and everything went very smoothly. Thanks again! "

"Only advantage is chargers just off the property"

"Lovely quaint hotel, very homely and welcoming. Stayed one night as stop over on way to Caen. Had a lovely meal of the day for 23e. Hosts were very welcoming and friendly. Would definitely stay again."
