Bonjour Alexandra, merci pour votre commentaire mais nous n'avons pas de wifi et nous sommes très clairs à ce sujet dans l'annonce et dans la description de la propriété. Notre village est trop petit et nous attendons toujours l'arrivée de la fibre. En ce qui concerne la baignoire spa, vous m'avez envoyé un e-mail à ce sujet avant votre séjour et je vous ai expliqué qu'il s'agissait d'une simple baignoire et non d'une baignoire spa. Les livres en français sont dans le grand placard près de la cheminée, ainsi que les jeux. Les livres anglais sont dans le petit meuble d'angle à l'étage, où vous avez dû regarder. Il y a également plus de 30 DVD anglais/français. Merci d'avoir laissé la maison si propre et si bien rangée, c'est très apprécié, Abi

Maison spacieuse à la compagne

Magnifique maison au calme de la campagne vendéenne où nous nous sommes très vite sentis comme chez nous. Cependant la literie etait un peu molle à notre goût. Abi est une hôte très sympathique et très accueillante. Très bon séjour près du puy du fou.

Why they chose this property

To experience the theme parks and the beautiful beaches as well as all the other amazing activities the region has to offer, then a car is advisable. Private off-road parking for two cars is available and it is directly outside the gîte.

If you like to cycle, the renowned La Voie Verte (an extensive car-free cycle route) is just on the doorstep and is also great for dog walks!
