Farmhouse with 3 Bedrooms, Sleeps 6, Garden, Swimming Pool
Situated right in the heart of a well known South Vendee village, this house lets you join in the pleasures of French village life. The village has a bar, auberge, restaurant and award winning boulangerie. You can follow the Mareuil Wine Trail, enjoy the miles of safe sandy beaches, soak up as much culture as you can take - and all before relaxing in the large swimming pool!
The Pool
Part of the Kitchen / Diner
Part of a working farmstead until very recently, Laurier Cerise is much as was except a swimming pool has been installed. Accommodation on the ground floor includes Kitchen/Diner, Lounge, Bathroom and toilet and huge Arriere Cuisine. The large Lounge is comfortably furnished and has a double bed/settee.
Outside there is a pretty garden and outdoor eating area, with table and chairs. The kitchen has plenty of cupboard space, ample cutlery, crockery and cookware are provided. There are automatic washing machine and dishwasher.
Located between Lucon, La Roche sur Yon and La Rochelle there is as much culture and experience as you can possibly fit into a holiday! Further afield, but well worth a visit, are the lovely cities of Nantes and Poitiers. Nor will you be bored for lack of activity, should you so desire, it is simply a paradise for walkers, cyclists and bird watchers.
For golf enthusiasts, there is a fabulous choice of courses, including La Domangere - the toughest course in France. All along the coast are watersports facilities, oysters and mussels fresh from the boats, miles and miles of sandy beaches with lifeguards and all within 15 minutes. There are museums, activity parks, chateaux, nature reserves, but then you might just prefer an afternoon in the pool and an evening barbeque!
