Guest Book

We ask all guests for feedback after their stay.

'We had a great time. Things turned out even better than we expected. Cottage was lovely, as was the view. The trips were superb and it was good to tour Angouleme and get a feel for its culture and history. Mary also enjoyed the shopping! We are pleased to recommend Les Donnington. Many thanks'

'We had a superb time. The weather was hot but with the occasional breeze. We admired the panoramic view of open fields in the foreground and trees in the distance. It was wonderful to chill out. We enjoyed our various trips notably the incredibly moving Ora-sur-Glane. We must never forget. Please thank Mike your caretaker/manager for all his help.'

'Thanks for a great stay in your lovely cottage - We enjoyed all it had to offer - the pool the views, the local cafes & restaurants as well as the various trips to Cognac and St Emillion. Your guest guide with all its information was very useful. Thanks also to Mike your caretaker/manager for his invaluable help and assistance'.

'Our 2 young children loved the cows in the field opposite. The garden was a great playground for them. John and I preferred the tranquil views from the terrace and also from the copse with its romantic seat. John enjoyed his fishing at the lake below your cottage whilst I took the children to the watersports at the Charente lakes. The cottage was lovely and met all our needs. The guest guide was excellent. We visited several of the places listed - the trip to Hennessey in Cognac was great. Thanks to Mike for his advice on places to eat. Good choices all of them.'

'We thoroughly enjoyed our fortnight at Les Donnington. Check in went well and we liked the welcome pack. We were very grateful for all the information you sent us beforehand. Mike's additional suggestions during our stay were also a great help. The kids enjoyed themselves both in the pool and garden with the various games provided, as well as the trips to lakes with the beaches. Dad enjoyed his sailing! We shall recommend it.'

'We had a great time at Les Donnington - it was just what the doctor ordered. We thoroughly enjoyed our trips and found St Emillion the best. Cognac was good too. The Chateau at Rochefoucauld is magnificent and Madame the owner is priceless. What excellent English. Puts my French to shame.'
