This apartment is located within a complex in the countryside near Cognac. The apartment is spacious, has comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen, and a great area in front for chilling with friends, family or alone. The host was very helpful, friendly, and met us to orient us about the space. There's ample parking and it's reasonably close to Cognac, yet in the country. This would be a great location for family reunions, larger parties, and families. There are some activites available for children/teens.

Our 3-night stay at Le Clos du Plantis could not have been better. The property is in a serene setting surrounded by flowers and nature. We awoke each morning to birdsong. The ancient Charentais logere has been lovingly and tastefully renovated so that each room and bath are spacious and have a door to the exterior. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the linens are high quality. No skrimping here! Each morning our breakfast was delicious, plentiful and a bit different from the day before. Our hostess made sure we were fully satiated. One night we enjoyed an evening meal, as well, and it, too, was delicious. Sadly the weather was not cooperative to enjoy the inviting pool; however, one evening on the terrace we had a gourmet pizza from a nearby restaurant, while watching the sun go down and turn the evening sky to pink. There also is a comfy, attractive communal sitting area with brochures of points of interest. This accommodation is among the best we have had in France - indeed in any country- since we started frequently traveling in Europe in 2005. The surrounding area has a bounty of interesting places to explore. Whether you want a restful getaway or a base from which to sightsee, Le Clos du Plantis is an exceptional choice. This is rural France at its best, yet close enough to Cognac, Saintes, Royan (beach), Angouleme, and the relatively unknown St-Jean-d'Angely, to enjoy historic and interesting adventures or more sporting activities. And don't forget to sample the pineau, cognac, and wines from the many vintners throughout this region. We look forward to a return visit. It does not get better than this!
