Classic and luxurious French manor house set in large grounds with swimming pool
WINNER BEST ABRITEL HOLIDAY RENTAL 2023!
This luxury manor house is set in 7 acres of private grounds in the French countryside and offers two large double bedrooms, both with en-suite shower rooms, two large twin bedrooms and a beautiful large newly renovated family bathroom. A well equipped French farmhouse kitchen leads directly onto a large stone walled terrace, complete with dining table for 10, luxurious external lounge seating and two sun loungers. Two spacious reception rooms are comfortably furnished for family living with a large dining table, a television and games area, and cozy soft seating.
A newly renovated heated large swimming pool is flanked by a built-in barbecue, 8 loungers and poolside seating.
This house is fully equipped with amenities designed to provide guests with ease and comfort during their stay.
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. The property is a short 10-minute drive from the 18-hole course at the Golf du Petit Chêne.
La Batonniere would ideally suit a family holiday in the sun or a group of professional friends wanting a luxurious break away from the stresses of town.
All of the bedding is hypoallergenic.
Note: the house is fitted with a security alarm, a video door bell and six external security cameras. This entire system is switched off whilst guests are in residence. The external cameras are at the front and rear of the main barn, two covering the main courtyard and two facing the rear of the house.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Ian and Amanda

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.
