The Mill
La Prairie
Description of Property:
La Prairie is a three-bedroom gîte on its own island, bordered on one side by the river Bruant and on the other by the millstream. It is named for its superb views towards the Charente ‘Prairie’ – the river flood plain. The open-plan ground floor has a stone fireplace with a log-burning stove. There are large living and dining areas, and a fully-equipped kitchen area which includes a gas oven with gas burners, a large fridge, a washing machine, a dishwasher, a microwave, a toaster and a coffee maker.
All three bedrooms are upstairs. There are two double bedrooms and one room with a pair of twin beds. The master double bedroom has its own ensuite shower, basin and toilet; the other bedrooms share a separate bathroom. All bedrooms have excellent views over the prairie and river.
5 Mill gîtes available year round offering 2 semi-detached 2 bedroom gîtes "La Terrasse” & “Delice du Berger” and a 2, 3 and 4 bedroom in the Mill itself.
The friendly British owner & her teenage children live year round in the Millhouse & will be pleased to welcome you to their idyllic setting and make you feel at home! Our Visitor’s Book speaks for itself!

The Terrace
Saintes also has a good daily Market (except Mondays) and a big “Foire” once a month. Perfect for buying a wide range of delicious fish & shellfish.
Locally can be found Tennis courts, Cinema, & indoor swimming pools at both Saintes & St Jean d’Angeley (25kms) and horse-riding schools within 15 mins.
The tidal reaches of the Charente River are a mere 5 minutes away as it flows from Cognac, via Saintes and down to the Estuary at Rochefort. Cognac, about a 45 min. drive, is well worth a day out to sample one, or more!, of the several old Cognac producers such as Hennessey, Courvoisier, Remy Martin and Ottard.
Closer to home is good walking near to the canals & perfect for birdlovers as there is an abundance, including Herons, Storks, Kingfishers to mention just a few. Cycling is also very pleasant as is very gently undulating & the countryside is mostly filled with cereal crops, Wheat, Barley, Raip & Sunflowers in the Summer. We have a Tandem available should you wish to go exploring.
