Marie-Pascale DE CUYPER
Welcome to La Loge du Grand Cèdre, a strong 18th century farmhouse, a haven of peace nestled in lush greenery and rolling woods. Everything has been thought for your comfort in this guest room: queen size bed, Italian shower room, nespresso machine, loundge. On site: heated pool, tennis, landscaped garden, laundry, enclosed parking. Relax at the pool or under the secular Lebanon cedar, tennis, golf, walk to the ocean, discover the Saintonge and its Romanesque art, tasting Cognac ... Just a word: ENJOY!
Marie-Pascale is happy to open the doors of her paradise, a haven of peace. She, her husband Bertrand and their three children had a huge crush on discovering in 2017 this old strong farm of the 18th century surrounded by greenery and hilly woods. Marie-Pascale is a country guide / tourist guide, the human relationship and sharing are close to her heart. After a very beautiful adventure of 15 years with charming cottages in Beaujolais - Alice's Treasure - Marie-Pascale and her family are delighted to offer a charming cottage **** on their new lands of Charente-Maritime . Long live the Grand Cedar Lodge !!! Ask her, she will always be happy to advise you sights and addresses. Welcome to La Loge du Grand Cèdre !
Halfway between the ocean and Cognac, Bordeaux and La Rochelle, just 5 minutes from the 18-hole Golf Rouyer-Guillet and the ancient Roman capital Saintes with a rich historical heritage, La Loge du Grand Cèdre and the charming cottage **** are wonderfully located to enjoy various tourist activities. Go to the beach to La Côte Sauvage or La Tremblade, take the path of the dungeons to St Palais sur Mer, make a commented tasting of Cognac, discover the Cathedral Saint Pierre or the Roman amphitheater, visit the Museum of Fine Arts of the city, take a barge for a guided tour of the Charente river, go on an excursion to the vineyards of Bordeaux or the banks of the Rochelle, climb aboard the replica Hermione, let you go to the island of Oléron or re island... And if you hesitate, ask Marie-Pascale, she will be happy to guide you!
