Our History

Whilst renovating this ancient Cognac estate we have chosen a modern style – but emphasis has been placed on providing comfort throughout in all areas to ensure that you can enjoy & relax during your stay with us.

Our village of Bagnizeau derives its name from the fact that around here, 2000 years ago, the Roman legions used the banks of the River Antenne as a natural bathing area. Nowadays you can wander down to the 11th century Norman church, use the village’s impressive Boules court or fish and walk along the river which bounds the village. For the more energetic this is great area for cycling or even just a gentle stroll through the vines and fields of various crops.
