From the theme parks at Puy de Fou and Futuroscope to nature exploration in the Marais Poitevin and the vineyards and castles of the Haut-Poitou and southern Loire Valley, visitors of all tastes will find many options for day trips in the surrounding areas. Food lovers will enjoy the products of the local “terroir”, including world renowned butter produced in nearby Echiré.

About the host

Hosted by Ian and Amanda

Host profile image
Ian and Amanda's international careers have meant a life time living in various locations, mostly in the Middle East, North Africa and currently India. A few years ago they decided to buy a forever home in a peaceful and beautiful location. Having a love of France they decided on the rural, authentic and unspoilt region of Deux Sevres.

Why they chose this property

Ian and Amanda looked at over 30 properties before falling in love with La Batonniere. Many houses they saw had been spoilt with unsympathetic renovations but La Batonniere still had all the charming original features of a classic French manor house. Large rooms, exquisite original stone floors, a winding drive and wonderful outbuildings all result in a very special place. La Batonniere is not just a holiday rental, it is a proper home from home.

What makes this property unique

Since purchasing the property Ian and Amanda have made a number of improvements. They have painted throughout, installed 2 new ensuites, a new family bathroom and redecorated every bedroom. There are also a new log burners in the day room and drawing room.

As avid chefs, the kitchen at La Batonniere is a cut above anything else you would find elsewhere. From proper chef's knives (sharpened professionally each year) to a whole section of pots and pans, glassware - everything you need to prepare great food in an unparalleled setting.
