Gites in Aigre, Poitou Charente

New to the market!

 

Well appointed, comfortable and spacious 1, 2 and 3 bed gites with large heated swimming pool.

 

Eric and Anita Harkus look forward to welcoming you to La Grue gites - a collection of 3 carefully restored gites with a large swimming pool. We have recently acquired and refurbished the property so there is still availability for this season.

 

We are located in a peaceful hamlet some 3 km from the market town of Aigre in the middle of the vine and sunflower region close to Cognac, Angouleme and Poitiers. It is an ideal base for exploring the fantastic countryside or just relaxing on the pool terrace.

 

Accommodation

  • upstairs family bath or bath/shower room
  • additional toilet downstairs
