Absolutely nothing.

A little gem of a B&B nestled in the French countryside. A lovely place to stay where you can experience a more relaxed way of life for a few days. The hosts were incredibly warm welcoming. The B&B was spotless and beautifully decorated. A wonderful mix of stylish and homely. Communal coffee and tea facilities for guests along with water was a welcome option after a long day sightseeing. Jo prepared us a table d’hote for our first night which was the best meal we had all holiday. We would stay again without hesitation.

We originally booked into this establishment for one night but were so enchanted by what we found that we added a second! British couple Josephine and Ian bought this old fortified farm in 2020. At the moment it consists of three bedrooms (all named after varieties of pears) each lovingly renovated and worthy of a five-star hotel in terms of luxury and refinement. Apart from bedroom basics – super-comfortable beds and bedding, beautifully appointed modern bathroom – the room itself, like the dining room downstairs had been decorated with an attention to detail and an eye for beauty that continued to delight. Fresh flowers, delicately worked linens, fine china – it was a perfect example of what the French call ‘l’art de vivre’. Having eaten a wonderful meal the first night, we chose to dine in a second time. Josephine’s cooking is cordon bleu standard and each dish is a pleasure to the eye as well as the palate. The value for money is unbeatable and the cherry on top is the welcome from the warm and gracious hosts. One of our best travel experiences.

That we didn't stay longer!

This is simply one of the best places to stay in France, and we have stayed in many. Josephine and Ian have created a haven in the countryside; peaceful, wonderfully furnished, utter comfort (a bed so luxurious I didn't want to leave it!), supper and breakfast beautifully presented, and all for a price that makes you smile. Everything has been though of; a lovely comfortable and quality bathroom, great WiFi, room in the garden to stretch your legs and see the history of the buildings. It's just perfect and reflects the labour of love they have spent on making this such a special place. Do not hesitate to go any stay, for as long as you can!

This is a wonderful place to stay. The welcome was warm, the room beautifully decorated. Spotlessly clean and every detail has been thought through to perfection. A little bottle of Vin Rose on arrival was a lovely touch and breakfast was superb with fresh bread, pastries, good coffee and home made jams. The courtyard with barn for parking is serene and well maintained. It is a little out of the way but well well worth a visit. A high spot in our French holiday. Ian and Josephine are great hosts. Highly recommended.

Ian & Josephine were both so lovely and helpful, we came to France for a friend’s wedding and couldn’t have wished for a better place to stay. The room was so spacious, had everything you needed and more, with a few added extras too! We had a couple of drinks in the garden, and it’s the perfect setting for a relaxing drink after a day of exploring the area. Jo did the most amazing 3 course dinner! 10/10 would recommend!

Logis du Poirier is a beautiful house set within the stunning French countryside. The house offers a beautiful big garden with a table and chairs and sun loungers. Perfect to relax in the sunshine or sitting out in the evening with a bottle of wine.

Pretty much everything! A fantastic and ongoing restoration of a lovely old farmhouse in a peaceful setting. Spacious, beautifully furnished room with a huge comfortable bed. An amazing home cooked evening meal from Jo with a fabulous breakfast the next morning including lots of home made delights. We loved sitting in the garden with a glass of wine after a long day travelling. Probably the best value for money of anywhere that we have stayed. Our hosts could not have been more welcoming.

A warm welcome, a charming restored charente stone house, a huge room and bathroom with great shower quality towels and bathrobes, a HUGE bed with lovely linen, a deliciouis dinner and breakfast, I could go on! Suffice it to say that Jo and Ian are perfect hosts who provide a wonderful relaxing place to stay; only one night in our case on our way south; but any stay there in the lovely french countryside would be time very well spent, please stay there and enjoy Logis du Poirier!

The hosts are the most lovely and welcoming people and make sure you have everything you need. It is a beautiful old house, which they have renovated. The guestrooms are nicely decorated and spacious and there is a very big garden where you can enjoy the sun. Make sure to try the breakfast, it is delicious! Thank you Josephine and Ian we had an amazing stay and start of our holiday.

A dream stay. We experienced excellent communication and wonderful hospitality in this glorious, private property in Juignac. Jo and her husband offer 2 rooms within their traditional French home just a 15 min drive from Aubeterre. Our room was at the back of the house and very private. It was beautifully appointed with a very comfortable bed, good quality bedding, and lovely views of the courtyard. The entire property was spotless, and design wise hits the brief successfully mingling French chic with a modern twists most of us love, (most evident in the huge bathroom that had a gorgeous bath and large, powerful modern shower with sunlight filling every crevice of the room. We had had a long journey and Jo was so accommodating with our check in time ensuring we had a delicious home cooked meal waiting for us in her (my dream!) kitchen and we finished off desert outside in the lush back garden. For those that are interested we had a 3 course meal, that included a main of beautifully prepared fresh fish for just 25E each, and this included a chilled bottle of white. Breakfast (included in the reasonable room rate) was a feast too with lots of options & proper coffee! We ate very well indeed. We had such a warm welcome, from the moment of booking, through to the welcome bottle of rose & baked biscuits in our room, right up to checking out. We felt very comfortable, it felt like staying a a good friends house, but with more privacy (!) and we left feeling like we had made a new friend. If you are looking for a place to reset, relax and just enjoy what France has to offer - Stay here.

We had a very comfortable stay at Logis de Poirier! The best B&B I had ever stayed. Breakfast was very generous too. Host - Josephine was really helpful and welcoming. This place is highly recommended. We would stay there in our next visit to this region. Thank you again Josephine!

Everything was perfect, the hosts were nice, welcoming and interesting. The whole place and its surroundings is beautiful. The rooms are warm, sparkling clean and tastefully furnished. The garden is nice and big and the cat is extra derpy. Lots of space for parking and beautiful places to visit around. Recommended stay from us. We would book again.
