Cottage La Dronne, part of Domaine Le Repaire
Domaine Le Repaire (French for "hiding place") consists of 5 lovely stone cottages lying in the shadow of the owner's 18th Century manor house in 5 acres of wooded parkland. A lovely valley borders Le Repaire, 1.5 miles from the village of Mareuil and halfway between the historic cities of Angoulême and Périgueux.
The 5 separate self-contained cottages are situated in a hilltop hamlet and sleep all together up to 26 persons. Facilities include two on-site swimming pools, tennis court, volleyball/badminton field and a children's play area.
Le Repaire offers tranquillity, privacy and a save setting for children. Its situation and surroundings guarantee a truly peaceful and relaxing holiday.
Accommodations
All the cottages are spacious and comfortable chalk stone farmhouses that have been restored in the typical Périgourdine style with many original features like open fireplaces, heavily beamed rooms and exposed stonework.
Their situation and the shared facilities make Le Repaire ideal for holidays of families with children. Moreover, renting more cottages at the same time opens the possibility to accommodate larger groups of relatives and/or friends, enabling you to 'holiday-apart-together'.
Le Repaire is also open to receive guests in the off-season. The cottages Chez Misja and Chez Mimi can accommodate long lets from 1 up to 6 months as from the beginning of October.
Some of the cottages are named after neighboring rivers. Chez Mimi carries the name of a French resistance group that went into hiding in the adjacent manor in 1944.

We rented all 5 cottages for a family reunion. We had a great time. The cottages are well equipped and comfortable. We spent time around the pool, which has good shaded areas as well as lots of space for sun bathing. There is also a great communal areas for eating together. The cottages also offer good areas for smaller get-togethers. The owners were available when needed, and very helpful. However, we didn't need them much at all. Mareuil has all you need for groceries and there are
a couple of restaurants. We visited Les Promenade a few times. The service is very good and meals are reasonably priced. It's a lovely area to visit and it's easy getting around.Guest rating:
