Tree Climbing

Its is no suprise with the magnificient trees in this area that tree climbing, known as accrobranche to the French, is a big success. 1.5km from Toutvent lies Poltrot, with a mini version (3-6years) and high accrobranching (7+years). A 15 minute drive away lies Saint Aulay accrobranche. If you fancy a day trip to Angouleme, Soyaux has an impressive accrobranch centre (40mins drive).

Horse Riding

Whether an experienced rider or novice, Martha and her team at Ecuries Des Chenes offer lessons and activites for visitors. If you would rather relax and watch your children enjoy the horses and poneys, Lois can offer you home-made cakes and refreshements in the coffee shop overlooking the indoor and outdoor arena.

OUR REVIEW

Ce que nos clients disent:

 Très bon séjour familial pour 4 couples, 1 adulte et 7 enfants. Un accueil et une disponibilité aussi simples qu’agréables de la part de Georgina et Owen, avec des attention particulières très sympas. La maison a du charme et est propre, fonctionnelle et agréable. Bon équipement pour cuisiner, manger et s’amuser. Nous avons apprécié les deux espaces différents pour la piscine et le jardin et les différents salons de la maison. De bons moments partagés au bord de la piscine, du billard, de la tyrolienne. Des visites intéressantes à proximité. Parfait aussi pour ceux qui aiment courir ou faire du VTT (voir le circuit VTT n°5 qui se rejoint juste à côté au niveau du golf d’Aubeterre).

Aurélien, August 2019


An amazing place that exceeded all our expectations. It worked very well for our group of 15, aged from 1 through teens to 75+. The pool was perfect for cooling down on the 40+ degree days, and thanks to the large tv/play room, dining room, living room, big kitchen and outside (undercover) seating we had plenty of space in the evenings and the occasional rainy day. Georgina and Owen were lovely hosts, which added to the whole experience.
