My husband and I, and two young children, spent one week at La Cannonerie over Easter. The 'gite' exceeded our expectations with its stylish open plan living area, new fully equipped kitchen, dining area, and sofas in front of a wood burning stove, which we lit on a couple of evenings. The bedrooms are very comfortable, with nice linen and soft duvets which, along with the toiletries provided, gave it that 'hotel feel'.
The hosts live on site so were available to answer any questions, and had even left some books and toys in the gite for our children to play with, which was a lovely touch. They gave us some good tips for family days out. We visited the beautiful coastline north of St Palais sur mer, and the charming town of Jarnac. We can thoroughly recommend!
