Chambres d'hôtes La Porte Rouge-The Red Door Inn

Beautiful 16th century mansion, renovated in a contemporary / flea market spirit. This residence is located in the heart of Saintes in the historic quarter, where the cathedral bell tower adorns the view of the garden. Monique and Jim love to share their love of antique art and their beautiful region, as well as their passion for cooking inspired by over 1000 French-English books in their collection. You will be welcomed with a welcome Pineau des Charentes. The garden, framed by a Saintongeaise stone wall, has a view of the cathedral and offers a haven of peace. You can discover aromatic herbs, have breakfast or just stroll around with a cup of tea or an aperitif. The spacious and bright rooms (2 rooms and 1 suite) have quality bedding, cotton sateen linen, Egyptian cotton bath sheets and bathrobes. You will be able to enjoy the table d'hôtes, whose cuisine is prepared from local products, from sustainable or organic farming. Your hosts will be happy to help you discover the artists of the region as well as all the hidden treasures that surround the town of Saintes, the river Charente and the Saintonge countryside bathed in a special light that inspires creativity and contemplation. The house is equipped with Wi-Fi, private parking upon reservation. Special offers available throughout the year, please enquire.
