About this property
Room in a Fortified Farm
Spacious double room with King size bed & en-suite bathroom. We are a family run business, located in the heart of the French countryside on the border between Deux-Sevres and Véndée. We have lived in France since 2005 and bought our fortified farmhouse in 2011, from which we are now running a B&B and camping facilities. Take a step back in time in our medieval property, sympathetically restored to retain as many of the original features as possible but adding modern comforts. If visiting Puy De Fou our property extends the experience. Breakfast is not included in the room price but is available at €9,50 per person, advance booking required and evening meals are available by pre-booking. Minimum of 2 choices for each course and dietary requirements can be catered for - cooked by a trained chef on site. Covered and open terraces, BBQ's and fire pits all available. Meals can be taken indoors or outside depending on preference. In the warmer months a plunge pool is also available. Situated approximately an hour and a half from the coast, the local area offers a range of tourist facilities whilst still benefiting from a tranquil environment. Most of the nearby towns host weekly farmers markets. Our 9 acre property includes a thriving vegetable plot, dogs and cats, an assortment of poultry and neighbouring cows. Pets welcome by prior arrangement , €10,00 per night, dogs etc allowed in rooms but cannot be left unattended. Dog kennel facilities are available on site by reservation. Biker friendly ! Regards, Pete and Vikki

Wonderful warm welcome from Vicki and Pete, we soon felt we were long time friends.
The Fortified farmhouse has been subtly restored to a very high standard. Every comfort has been thought of. The food which Vicki cooked was delicious. Our only regret was that we didn’t stay longer. Thank you both for your hard work restoring that lovely building.

Surprenant
j'ai déjà fait quelques chambres d’hôtes, classique!
La, surprise. Nous avons l'impression d'être dans une maison du moyen age avec le confort d'aujourd'hui. Très belle maison pour ceux qui sont amoureux des pierres et l'accueil des propriétaires est très chaleureux. Petit déjeuner correct. J'ai passé un bon séjour.
