The Poitou-Charentes / Vendee / Vendee region
The Vendée has a microclimate which means that the area enjoys up to 2600 hours of sunshine a year. This is almost as many as the south of France and almost twice as many as London! Well-established as a tourist area you will find activities to suit all of the family. From a castle in Talmont-St-Hilaire and a tower in Moricq to a zoo in Les Sables d'Olonne there really is something for everyone. All towns have local produce markets, wonderful opportunities to try local specialities and soak up some of the friendly Vendéen atmosphere. The summer also sees the area hosting many music festivals and watersport competitions. Every four years the world famous Vendée globe race sets off from Les Sables d'Olonne and the Vendée is regularly featured in the itinerary for the Tour de France cycle race.
Situated in the southern reaches of the Loire valley, the Vendée has four main wine-producing areas : Brem-sur-Mer, Vix, Pissotte and Mareuil-sur-Lay. Visits and tastings can be arranged and most restaurants stock local wines for you to enjoy.
For history buffs l'Historial de la Vendée is the place to visit. (http://historial.vendee.fr/) Telling the long history of the area from pre-historic times to the present day there is also a simulated helicopter ride over the Vendée, exciting for visitors of all ages.
Slightly further afield are the leisure parks of Futuroscope (www.futuroscope.com) and Puy de Fou (www.puydufou.com) both 'must-sees' for the family. For bargain-hunters, Cholet has a designer outlet - Marques Avenue with many popular labels at reduced prices. (www.marquesavenue.com)
The La Tranche sur Mer / Angles area
Angles is a vibrant market town with bars, shops and restaurants. During the summer there are twice-weekly markets and regular evening entertainment such as live bands, a circus, theatre productions, 'Moules Frites' (mussels and chips) evenings and outdoor dances. Angles also has a large brocante (antique shop) and on the showground there are regular car-boot and antique fairs.
La Bergerie is in Moricq, part of Angles with its own supermarket, bar and boulangerie. Also in Moricq there is a fifteenth century tower which used to be part of the sea defence for the area. Guided visits of the tower run throughout the summer.

This is the 3rd time we have stayed here and this time went back with our 5 month baby, La Bergerie is a well eqipped gite which has a lovely garden where you can relax and you can sit on the decking area to enjoy a nice meal and a glass of wine or two!! You can walk to the nearest town Angles which has a nice bar and few restaurants,also Moriq has a supermarket and a small bar very close by. Cheryl and Johnathan the owners are very friendly and always available if needed, We have booked again already for next year and cant wait to go back. |

A truely relaxing experience! The gite was full of French charm and well equipped. The attached decking area, with lighting, gave a lovely ambience at night. The power shower was a true bonus and the internet availabilty proved very useful. The property was attached to the owners' residence and the service provided was excellent. Being on the outskirts of a hamlet offered a lovely seclusion but ammenities were only a five minute drive away. Satisfaction is illustrated by the fact that we are already booked for next year! Excellent beaches are only ten minutes away by car. Take care with children and ensure swimming takes place in controlled zones. An ideal area for keen surfers while La Tranche Sur Mer is constantly being improved to cater for tourists. |
