In short
Description
Preserving natural resources for a different kind of vacation in an eco-friendly gîte
The cottage faces south, making it very pleasant in any season; the insulation is surprisingly effective, and you can really feel the warm, wood-filled atmosphere!
In this peaceful setting, you’re free to enjoy the garden as much as you like—picking seasonal fruits and vegetables and chatting away.
Our eco-friendly cottage welcomes you for a unique and cozy stay in a lush green setting in southern Vendée.
Located in the heart of the countryside, in a hamlet surrounded by lush greenery, just 2 km from the tourist village of Foussais-Payré—designated a “Petite Cité de Caractère ”—you’ll stay in a place perfect for peace and relaxation.
Recharge your batteries at our guesthouse, open year-round, and enjoy a peaceful outdoor vacation.
Take a break and finally make time to savor your favorite novel (or the vegetables from your garden
) in a lounge chair under the shade of the garden trees, listen to the melodious song of the birds while napping on the grass, let yourself be dazzled by the splendid sunsets, and admire the starry skies from your vacation home, which enjoys a complete absence of light pollution. Starting in September, as night falls, the bellowing of the stags resounds majestically around the house.
Our unique lodging can accommodate up to 4 people, making it ideal for an unforgettable vacation in the Vendée with friends or family.
And if you’re feeling a little peckish, all the local shops—some of which are organic—are sure to delight your taste buds!
The fully equipped kitchen in our vacation rental or the outdoor campfire area will let you cook while enjoyingthe unspoiled and exotic natural surroundings.
Wiredinternet access is available via your laptop and an Ethernet cable. (We’ll lend you a cable if you’ve forgotten yours:
)
