La Maison des Grands Bambous is a simple B & B which delivers so very much in a tranquil little village about 20 mins drive from Cognac. Sally extends a very warm welcome into her home and is an excellent host. Clean room, comfy beds, great bathroom with plenty of hot water. There is a lovely living space which is... More

Just back from an amazing 2 weeks at La Maison des Grands Bambous. Fabulous, well equipped gite, great pool, amazing BBQs, great and knowledgable hosts, made to feel very welcome. Recommend visiting Angouleme, Cognac and Le Chateau de la Roche Courbon. Highly recommend this place for a great, relaxing and welcoming family holiday!! More

Hello, I will try and be very brief with my description. First off Sally is wonderful, she knows a lot of the small Cognac distillers, the good food, and lots of the local environment. You also have to realize that like all places other then big cities (Paris, Bordeaux, etc..) you need a car, bike (might be a stretch) or... More

Arriving at La Maison Des Grands Bambous at Louzignac in the Charente Maritime area of South West France was like stepping into heaven, especially as we had been bitterly disappointed with our previous Gite in the area. That's why these personal reviews are so important. Sally and Peter Yik make sure your stay at their small Gite complex is a... More

We have stayed annually at this accommodation since August 2006 either in the main house or in one of the three gites. Set in a beautiful area of the country with vines wherever you turn we always look forward with anticipation to returning to La Maison. Sally and Peter's hospitality is second to none; the welcome is always warm. The... More

We recently stayed at La Maison Des Grands Bambous at Louzignac in the Charente Maritime in South West France, while our new house was being built. At this point we should stress that there are two Louzignacs, this is the 17160 Louzignac near Matha and not near Cognac. The first thing we should say is the welcome one receives from... More

We have had the pleasure of staying with Sally and Peter on two occasions. We were a group of three families so had all three Gites to ourselves. The setting is fantastic, the houses spotless and superby equipped. The gardens and pool area are simply fantastic, plenty of room for the badminton court, cricket pitch etc etc. The pool is... More

We stayed in one of the Gites at La Maison des Grands Bambous for two weeks. The first thing to say is that the hosts, Sally and Peter, are exceptional. They are informative and friendly. The pool is excellent and is cleaned daily. The Gites are functional with fully fitted kitchens. If we were to visit the region again, we... More

Situated in a small country village, La Maison is a fine old house with a large garden and a good sized solar-heated pool. Everything is clean, tidy and comfortable, and some of the rooms ("gites") have self-catering facilities. Our room was under the eaves, and required some care to avoid bumped heads. As there is no restaurant within walking distance... More
