The Poitou-Charentes / Vendee / Deux Sevres region

There is easy access to the Atlantic port of La Rochelle and Ile de Re for chic seafood harbour restaurants, thalassotherapy spas, wonderful, unspoilt beaches, Aquarium, sailing and much more. For nature lovers visit the Marais Poitevin for a day of gentle punting on the canals and waterways. Nearby is the Lac du Lambon with sandy beaches and water sports. Niort and Poitiers for historic and artistic interest, boutiques and the famous theme park for the moving image - Futuroscope. Famous for Pineau des Charentes, the delightful aperitif; tastings are available at the many local producers or for something a little stronger visit Congac!
The Deux Sevres is officially the second sunniest area in France after the Cote d'Azure!

Guestbook

Many many thanks for: a) your wonderful home; b) all your help and input over the two weeks. We really did have a brilliant time (I'll send you a couple of pictures) right up to the last day!! Thanks for all your help with the car, hopefully that's all getting sorted now. Good journey home!! Superb property, ideal for our three families. Excellent facilities, friendly and ever-helpful hosts. Barbecued most nights with wonderful sunsets then (amazing) starry skies - and, of course, the bullfrogs. -- Steve P. Burley, Dorset
