We stayed here for one night, when we came to visit the Cognac houses. Our hostess Isabelle was so warm and friendly and helpful. She picked us up from the train station, booked our visits to the Cognac houses and served a lovely French breakfast. The rooms are cute - not fancy, but comfortable and clean. There is also free...

Stayed in La Suite Cognac for 2 nights whilst visiting with friends. The B&B is really close to the centre of town, just across the bridge from Hennessey and everything else within 5/10 mins walking distance. Isabelle was as perfect a hostess as could be, picked us up and dropped us off at the train staiton as well as offering... More

As a birthdaypresent my parents, my sister and brother in law gave us a trip to Cognac, "all inclusive". They payed for the journey, a rental car and a five night stay at Au pre pes Pontis. We arrived at Cognac late in the evening, but Isabel actually stood in entrance and welcomed us. The car was parked behind a... More

What can I say. We had the most amazing, relaxing time. Isabelle was so caring and helpful. The rooms were lovely and clean. Breakfast was absolutely delicious. We were picked up and dropped off to the train station, and she helped us sort out other train reservations. It was like we had our own 'French Mother' helping us and sharing... More

Isabelle, the owner, really does make you feel like a guest in her home. I can't think of anything you would want that she doesn't provide: large clean rooms, good bathroom with plenty of towels (and toiletries!), tea & coffee, free secure parking, enormous range of guidebooks, maps & brochures to borrow. Cognac is not as pretty as Jarnac, but... More

This is a perfect place to stay in Cognac - just across the bridge from the old town with the distilleries and quaint streets, parking behind a security gate (we even got the garage for our sports car), wonderful breakfast including grapes from Isabel's own garden and a free entry card into the Cognac distillery based in the castle which...

This is our third year at Au pre des Pontis and we love it as much as ever. The reason we stay here is to visit the Cognac blues Passion which is mainly held in the park and this B & B is in a perfect location for all the entertainment but also for all the places of interest. As... More

Having read the reviews of this and alternative accommodation in Cognac, I booked the Cognac Suite for my wife and myself and the Green room for our friends. I am absolutely sure I did the right thing, as we were all very pleased with our en-suite rooms. (The Yellow room's beds look a bit low for my aching bones and... More

Dropped by unanounced hoping there would be availability since we're travelling in low season. Isabelle was so very welcoming. Our rooms were prepared straight away while we went for a coffee. Very spacious and comfortable, tasteful furnishings and with nice homely touches like fresh flowers from the garden. We even had a plate of home made orange cake for a... More
