The Poitou-Charentes / Vendee / Deux Sevres region

The Poitou-Charentes region has a magnificent coastline - and is one of the finest destinations for countryside holidays. The region's reputation is closely linked to cognac – the superb, refined, locally-produced spirit. Poitou-Charentes is a land of tradition, where skills are passed on from generation to generation.

The department of the Deux Sèvres is part of the Poitou-Charente region in western France and is the perfect place to unwind and relax. Quiet roads will lead you to unexpected places; rivers, lakes, forests, historic towns, small villages with colourful markets and, during the summer months, a range of festivals and events

Known as one of France’s ‘Best Kept Secrets’ the Deux Sèvres is the tranquil, laid-back, unspoilt department of the Poitou-Charente, the second sunniest region in France. It is filled with lazy winding rivers and is a region truly dedicated to relaxing, restful holidays in beautiful accommodation.
