Holiday rentals in Juignac

Have just had a fabulously relaxing & enjoyable stay at Louise’s home. The house was wonderful - spacious & beautifully decorated. The rooms were perfect for our needs with good storage (wardrobe & drawers) & very comfy beds. We also really appreciated the small touches such as lovely handwash soaps left in the bathrooms & decent sized, good quality towels. We felt right at home immediately - the kitchen was a great size and well stocked in terms of kitchenware - plenty of everything, from pans to glasses to coffee machines (traditional Italian hob style and electric pod Nespresso). The setting was perfect for us - private, surrounded by fields of sunflowers & only a couple of very discrete neighbouring houses. A boulangerie was only a 10min drive away. The garden, with its beautiful shaded seating area & swimming pool were much enjoyed. Louise was so friendly and helpful from my first contact, that I began to relax into holiday mode immediately. This is a lovely rental.

We loved our holiday at Maison des Abeilles. We were there with our family, including 3 grandchildren aged 9, 7 and 5 months. The house is a good family house, comfortable, very well equipped and welcoming. The kitchen and bathrooms are a little dated but all is clean, the beds are very comfortable with nice linen. The two covered terraces, one facing east, the other west, with dining tables and chairs are great. The garden is spacious and private, the heated pool, approx 12x6m, is perfect. Nearby, beautiful Aubeterre sur Dronne is a lovely village. The local area is rural, unspoilt and very peaceful. We enjoyed some local walks from the house. There was an issue with the drains during our stay. Chris responded immediately and quickly arranged appropriate help. All was sorted quickly. We would happily return.

We had a wonderful stay! Beautiful surroundings and the views from the back deck were picturesque. It was a peaceful place for us to relax and unwind although there is lots to do in nearby villages, if so inclined. Toby and Lesley were great hosts!

In the 40+ places I have stayed on Airbnb, Steph’s is one of the very best. A huge and private space, beautifully and artistically decorated and furnished, full of quirky decor, and the most lovely welcome. From freshly cut flowers from Steph’s garden, arranged in a vase, a little posy of fresh herbs in a vase in the kitchen, dinner and breakfast for your first night/morning provided, big fluffy towels, amazing shower, the list goes on. The outdoor space is divine. I spent a lazy afternoon watching swallows dipping in and out of the pool and butterflies everywhere. The sweeping views of the valley are so calming. It was unseasonably cold when we were there and Steph very thoughtfully messaged to check we had enough firewood (we did, so well stocked). Steph & Dave were amazing hosts, gave us complete privacy but so friendly and easy to chat to when we saw them when we were coming and going. Perfect for couples or for young families, I really hope we get the opportunity to return.

Our stay was great! Derk and his wife were very attentive and warm hosts, who welcome us and explained all about the region. The house corresponds to the pictures: it is beautiful, comfortable and cozy, has all the needed appliances for a pleasant stay in the countryside. Bathroom and shower are really good quality, living room extremely comfortable with a nice woodfire and the TV is actually larger than you can tell from the pictures. The garden is the highlight of the house, with a stunning view and a relaxing outside area for meals. The villages in the region are nice, with little shops, restaurants and sight seeing. Great recommendation for relaxing vacations! We would definitely like to stay in the Gite again in the future :) (and we love Ramsi, the golden retriever). Thank you Derk and family, we had a great time!

Very nice glamping experience. Conveniently furnished safari tent, modern and spacious bathroom, all equipped with the necessities for a pleasant stay. The domain is very child-friendly. There is a swing, sandpit, playhouse, trampoline, enclosed swimming pool. The presence of the animals was also very nice for our children. Helping with the care of the animals daily was an absolute top moment. The surroundings are also very relaxing: vast fields, beautiful starry sky in clear weather, the silence. Sandrine and her husband were very likeable, friendly and passionate hosts. They were welcoming and very sweet with the kids. A gem for those who love peace and quiet. Both as a stopover and for a long stay highly recommended!

Only stayed a few days as it was a base for a wedding. Lots of the other guests stayed on this complex so it worked well for us as a large group

It is a really wonderful place. The house is in perfect condition and the kitchen is stocked very well to cook whatever you want. The garden is beautiful and we enjoyed it a lot to hang out there and enjoy the warm weather. So there is really nothing to say negative about the house! It is a fantastic place to give you lots of privacy even if the house is crowded. The one thing which gave us a little hick-up was the question about the deposit which is not mentioned in the terms on Airbnb, or I was not able to see it! Anyway after consultation it seems to be legitimate that a deposit can be asked for! It would just be nice to know from the beginning. Even knowing from the beginning it would have not changed my decision to rent the house. It is an amazing beautiful house and I would definitely rent it again!
