The Poitou-Charentes / Vendee / Vendee region


The Vendee lies between the Côte d'Argent and Brittany but with a character all of its own. The Atlantic Coast stretches 140 km, full of fine white sandy beaches with an amazing 210 days sunshine per year, a record rivalling that of the south of France.
The Vendée coast is renowned for its luminosity and is called locally "LA COTE DE LA LUMIERE"... The Vendée is rich with many museums, castles and heritage centres to visit.
It is a land of naturally preserved space with a variety of pleasures such as sandsurfing, horse riding, golfing, watersports and Spa Thalassotherapy centres offering revitalising salt water cures. The Vendée is reclaimed land and therefore flat and riddled with creeks, vast beaches and sand dunes inviting you to relax. In the dusk, fine pleasure ports transform into lively, welcoming stopovers with a variety of museums, gardens, festivals, folklore pageants and magnificent evening shows.
The region is covered with working salt marshes, oyster beds, potato fields, vineyards and provides a wealth of seafood. The Vendée offers colourful beauty and a variety of countryside from farmlands to the local marshes and Marais Poitevin Marshes, from forests, the sea and villages with their colourful markets selling the local speciality "Brioche Vendéene" (a type of bread with a sweet taste). One can relive the past by visiting cloisters, abbeys, inhabited Châteaux and the picturesque surroundings encompassed by magnificent windmills. You couldn't have a better setting for seaside fun, plenty of space on the gently sloping beaches where you can cool off, or picnic in the fragrant pine woods which sweep down to the sand dunes.
The St Gilles Croix de Vie / Coex area
The popular port and town of St Gilles Croix de Vie is situated 8km away and the beaches (Grande Plage and Boisvinet) approx 12 km away. You are within 3 km of the village Coex and the famous floral park. Details of local sports facilities : horseriding, tennis, fishing, canoeing. The horse riding is nearby at only 800metres, where there is a special reduction for clients staying in the residence. There is fishing at the lake Gué Gorand 2km.
To visit in St Gilles are the fishing museum, the Tour Josephine lighthouse and Le Hope a historical wooden fishing boat.
Other attractions in the area include the feudal chateau at Commenquiers and the velo rail (pedal powered railway cart), Puy du Fou theme park, a slow boat on The Marais Poitevin, cycle tours of the salt marshes, Les Sables d'Olonne zoo to mention but a few.

Guestbook for Fontenelles apartment 6 person
'S' family 11 - 25 July 2009 CCK fontenelles
Hi there, we had a lovely time in Domaine de fontenelles. The accomadation was lovely - plenty of room upstairs for our 3 kids. They enjoyed the pool although at busy times there were never enough sun loungers! we enjoyed some golf and gentle walks down the golf course to feed ducks, and very safe so our kids often ventured off themselves to feed the ducks. Our main complaint was the weather, and wake up in france cant fix this. We would definitely book through yourselves again.
