Le Lit et L'image

Chambres d'Hôtes de charme (B&B)
Gîte (holiday home)

Amongst the vineyards and sunflower fields in the Charente-Maritime region of France, just a few miles from the A10 motorway Paris-Bordeaux, you find "Le Lit et L'image" (The Bed and the Image) in an oasis of tranquility.


The B&B and the Holiday House are in a small hamlet, well away from mass tourism, but in a region with a multitude of possibilities for an ideal vacation. Smack in the middle of the Bordeaux wine and Cognac routes, you can hike, bike, mountain bike, savour the local delicacies and enjoy the castles in the region. A lazy day ? Relax by the pool, or sip from a Pineau de Charentes, the local aperitif, in the shade of the lime tree.



Whenever possible, breakfast is served al fresco. There's a cosy sitting corner and kitchen available to our guests, so you're not obliged to eat out every day.   


All rooms and the holiday house benefit from free wifi to access the internet.


This is a quiet environment and we chose not to allow pets.


At the back of the house is a photo studio, used for shoots and workshops.
