Each gîte has a gas barbeque, an outside table, chairs and a parasol for shade. There is also a lovely summer kitchen area with more tables, chairs and a traditional barbeque made from the old bread oven.
Every gîte has UK satellite TV but we doubt if you will waste much time watching it, as there is so much to do. A library of DVDs, videos and books is also available for guests.
The pool area is perfectly situated for all day sunshine and far enough from the gîtes so as not to disturb the other residents. There are plenty of loungers and chairs to spread out over the extensive patio. For your safety, the heated pool conforms to French safety regulations and has an alarm.
The Hot Tub is available when the pool is not in commission.
There is an area for a quiet game of boules or a game of table tennis.
We have a salle de jour, which can be used by all visitors and has the DVD, video and book library.
***
Located in Charente Maritime, the second sunniest region of France, the hamlet of La Foye is surrounded by extensive fields of sunflowers and vineyards, with the magnificent Forest of Aulnay just moments away offering wonderful walks and bicycle rides.
With easy access from all directions, especially the A10 autoroute, the region is renowned for its Cognac, oysters, cheeses and friendly people. La Foye is situated in a gloriously tranquil, unspoiled setting, absolutely perfect for French country living and ideal for a relaxed, refreshing holiday.
Charente-Maritime is situated on the southwest coast of France and is part of the larger Poitou-Charantes region. It enjoys long hot summers and very mild winters which are so necessary for the production of fine grapes used to make the wonderful wines and Cognac. It is known locally as the 'western Mediterranean' and enjoys the second highest number of sunshine hours in France (after the Cote D’Azur).
The combination of the words ""Charente"" and ""Maritime"" help to capture the magic of this department – producing as it does the best from the land with the Cognac grapes, cereal crops and fields of sunflowers – and the best from the ocean with the oysters, mussels and fish. Located with the Atlantic to the west of its 150 mile coastline, the Vendee and Deux-Sevres to the north, the Dordogne to the east and the Gironde to the south, the Charente-Maritime is a magnificent and exceptional part of France.
