Why Les Hiboux for your family

holidays in France?

Les Hiboux France holiday gites are owned by a family with a child who know the importance of providing a French family holiday environment that maximise the enjoyment for both parents and children. We have created our own adventure playground to ensure that everyone is relaxed, happy and contented. Outside school holidays the French gites and cottages and the extensive grounds become a haven of peace and tranquility.

You only need to browse the Poitou Charentes region's website to see that there is an enormous amount of interest in the area, but some groups have spent the entire happy holiday within the grounds.

A French gites holiday at Les Hiboux in the Poitou Charentes will keep you and your family entertained with our football pitch, swings, slide and children's cabin, sunken trampoline, safely fenced carp pond and a swimming pool. Two French boule pitches allow children to use one, while Mums and Dads use the other. Bicycles for all ages and a games room with pool, table football and darts are all available, while another large barn houses the table tennis table. There is also a wide range of DVDs, toys, books and board games.


The accommodation at Les Hiboux
