About the home
La Borderie de la Gontrie offers the peace and the tranquillity of the countryside while located less than 1 hour from Nantes Airport and 4 hours from Paris Airport.
3 rooms from 160 to 270 sq. ft with an independent bathroom are each located in a different small house.
It probably was built in the seventeenth century as a farm, being modified later to a prison and finally back to a cottage at the end of the nineteenth century. We bought it in 2005 and rebuilt many parts of the buildings while trying to maintain both the spirit and historic appearance of them.
The site is surrounded by a park of 3 Ha with no neighbours for absolute peacefulness.

The Poitou-Charentes / Vendee / Vendee region


There are actually two Vendees.
The West Vendee is the sea side with vast beaches of sand, water sports and fun, very much tourism oriented.
The East part is called "Le Bocage" (it describes field surrounded by shrubs and bushes). It is a countryside where you will find more cultural and family activities: Vendee war history, middle age castles, parks, animals, etc.
The Les Essarts area
