Set within the rolling countryside of the Charente, Manoir de Longeveau offers a well-balanced holiday setting designed with families and relaxed living in mind. The estate combines comfortable accommodation with a wide range of on-site facilities, allowing guests to enjoy both activity and downtime without needing to venture far.
At the heart of Longeveau is its collection of leisure amenities. Guests can make use of the tennis courts, beach volleyball court, and on-site golf course, while heated swimming pools provide a place to unwind throughout the season. For more informal activities, there are boules courts and table tennis, as well as a dedicated workout space with yoga mats for those wishing to maintain a gentle routine.
Families are particularly well catered for, with thoughtfully designed spaces for children of all ages. An indoor playroom offers a place to meet and play, while outside, enclosed gardens and connected play areas include climbing frames, swings, and a sandpit. These safe, accessible spaces allow children to explore freely while parents can relax nearby. A small but memorable feature of the estate is the presence of hens, where children can occasionally collect fresh eggs.
Safety and comfort are a priority throughout. All swimming pools are enclosed with European-standard safety barriers, and many are heated for added convenience. A separate paddling pool ensures younger children have a suitable and secure place to enjoy the water.
During the summer months, the estate takes on a sociable and welcoming atmosphere. The weekly Monday evening barbecue provides an easy opportunity for guests to come together, followed by a friendly football match on the tennis courts—a long-standing tradition enjoyed by both children and adults.
