The Poitou-Charentes / Vendee / Charente Maritime region


The area is the centre of the French Oyster industry and you are also a short drive away from Cognac, both of whom encourage the public to come and visit and see how they produce their world famous products and of course you can sample these delights. We must not forget the surrounding wine Chateaux who would also love you to visit them.
The Mirambeau area
St. Hilaire du Bois is only 20 mins from the Gironde estuary, which is a nature reserve. Meschers 24 miles away, the beginning of 15 kilometers of beautiful beaches which are cleaned daily, whilst Royan, an hour away a favourite with Parisians, offers many amenities, including the opportunity to engage in all water sports.
La Rochelle is only second to Paris for the number of visitors per year. This beautiful city has much to offer you including boat trips to various islands and around the famous Fort Boyard. The excellent Aquarium is definitely a "must see", and one is definitely spoilt for choice as to restaurants.
For those who enjoy Mountain Biking or rambling there are many routes of varying lengths in the area which take you through forests and picturesque villages, whilst those who want to simply wind down can relax in the pleasant gardens, play volley ball by the river, contest a game of (babyfoot) or enjoy the beautiful pool in its garden setting.
