Enchanted Coliving: nine people, a lot of books, western France
Enchanted Coliving is a small countryside house in Nachamps, in Charente-Maritime between La Rochelle and Cognac. It takes a maximum of nine residents, and it is aimed squarely at writers and creative people: literary-themed rooms, books, board games and wine tasting rather than networking events.
What Enchanted Coliving Does
- A maximum of nine residents. Small enough that the house functions as one group.
- Literary-themed private rooms. Individually designed rather than uniform.
- Around 870 to 1,080 euros a month. Roughly 32 euros a night, with a 14 night minimum and discounts available.
- Reported 500 Mbps internet. Which for rural France is well above average.
- A quiet, slow programme. Board games, wine tasting and contemplation rather than a packed calendar.
Why It Makes Sense for Nomads
Charente-Maritime is one of the sunniest parts of France and one of the least discovered by remote workers. La Rochelle is a beautiful Atlantic port city with a fast train to Paris, the Ile de Re is nearby, and Cognac and Bordeaux are within reach.
The small size and creative focus are the point. Nine people is a dinner table rather than a community, which suits a month of writing or making something in a way that a thirty-person house does not.
Two things to weigh. Rural France means a car for anything beyond the village, and a nine-person house books out, so plan well ahead. The reviews, 5.0 across 17, are unanimous but from a small sample.
Pricing
