Do you need to relax and take a break for few days? Do you want to enjoy the beauty of a pleasant region, close to beaches and towns but in the heart of the countryside? Yes? Then let’s go for few days in l’Aunis, located few kilometres from the Marais Poitevin. I discovered a fabulous gîte, where the calm setting only competes with a huge private spa, so you can recharge your batteries and forget everything during your holidays. So let’s discover the Gîtes and Spa La Charmaie in Aigrefeuille d’Aunis!


Wellness is at the heart of your stay


Does the turmoil of daily life affect your mood and your enthusiasm? You need to take a break and what could be better than a wellness stay? If the thermal spas are not your cup of tea and you would rather discover the attractive sites of the Charente Maritime, while in a quiet setting reasonably close from the sea resorts... I’ve got the perfect place for you! For a relaxing break close to nature, choose the Gîte La Charmaie, in Aigrefeuille d’Aunis.

L'entrée Spa La Charmaie

I am welcomed by Katia, in this beautiful, fully renovated and tastefully decorated Charentais compound, and I settle in the gîte « En Tête à Tête ». The gite has a maritime theme, a large comfortable bed and an unusual but also practical layout revolving around the kitchen… straight away I spot the sun loungers on the grass, extending from the terrace. I am going to have a great time here!

Out of curiosity, I also visit the two other gites: The one next to mine, “l’Albizia”, is spacious, with a huge terrace and a garden, and a very large living area with an astonishing sofa. This gite can accommodate up to 6 people.

The third gîte, “L’Annexe” is located on the other side of the building. It is a beautiful residence, which can accommodate up to 4 people. L’annexe has a light and spacious living room and two beautiful bedrooms on the first floor. Katia has tastefully chosen the bed linen, the ornaments and the furniture, creating a really cosy atmosphere. A family or a group of friends (up to 12 persons) could rent the 3 gîtes together and meet for dinnertime around the big table in the Albizia gite.

Did I mention the spa? Put on your swimming clothes and let’s go to the incredible 120m2 spa. It is exclusively reserved for the customers of the gites. Take your shoes off, climb the stairs and enter a voluptuous world, dedicated to wellness and relaxation.

Take some time to rest and unwind. Would you prefer the sun loungers facing the garden, or the tea corner, full of magazines?

Before relaxing on the massaging chairs or treating yourself with 1 hour massage that you can book in advance with a professional masseur, discover the sensory shower. There are 3 programmes inviting you to an aquatic and acoustic scent experience: a hot tropical rain, a fresh mist and a mix of sensations hot/cold; the fruity aromas and the play of light and water will amaze you!
