Location
The house is set on a quiet road which leads directly to Vouvant, and is only a few hundred yards from the centre of the village. The village has a bar and a riding stables, and is visited every day (except Sunday) by a lady selling freshly baked bread. You can enjoy quiet walks around by the church and the local farm, which breeds prize winning Charolais cattle
This beautiful property is perfectly located for exploring the area.
Located in the South Vendee, St Maurice des Noues is a small, quiet village between La Chataigneraie and Fontenay le Comte, only 3 miles from the lovely medieval town of Vouvant, on the borders of the Mervent-Vouvant recreational forest.
Distances
La Chataigneraie 5 minutes all amenities.
Vouvant beautiful historic village with shops and restaurants 5 minutes.
Local Attractions
More information on Vendee beaches, attractions, activities, fishing etc can be found at the top of this page in the links box to the right
Just 3 miles away is the lovely medieval village of Vouvant, with its ancient walls and tower overlooking the Melusine river. A perfect place for a picnic down by the river, or for the more energetic, climb the tower and enjoy the spectacular views over the countryside.
Then there is the forest of Mervent (10 minutes away), where you’ll find the fantastic Pierre Brune play park, great for adults and youngsters, the Mervent zoo, and miles of mountain biking trails. Great for cycling, walking, fishing, horeseriding, picnics and watersports.
Mervent itself has spectacular views, and on the lake you can hire boats or canoes. You’ll also find lovely little restaurants and creperies tucked away in forest glades and ancient chateaux.
The nearby town of Fontenay has a couple of Hypermarkets, a thriving outdoor market on Saturday mornings, and numerous cafes and bars for you to visit on an evening. The municipal pool here is also a favourite.
Further Affield
You’re just over an hour away from the atlantic beaches (the closest at La Tranche is just an hour), La Rochelle and Les Sables d’Olonne (famous as the starting place of the Vendee Globe yacht race, and its lovely little zoo, and in the rock pools at the south end of the beach you can find crabs, starfish and sea anemones).
Just beyond La Rochelle is the exclusive island of the Ile de Ré, with it’s sandy beaches and exclusive designer shops in the island’s capital of St. Martin, within an hours drive
La Rochelle is a great place to visit for the outdoor dining around the harbour, and to wander around the quaint arched streets packed with exclusive shops, within an hours drive
About an hour in the other direction you’ll find Poitiers, with the Parc du Futuroscope well worth a day out.
Also within an easy drive are Nantes (fantastic cathedral, castle and restaurant quarter, but dreadful traffic at rush-hour) and the popular theme park of Puy de Fou (allow a full day for this, and don’t forget the evening shows), 1.5 hours drive
Where are we?
About an hour from airports at Poitiers and La Rochelle, 3 hours from St Malo, 4.5 hours from Caen or a
7 hour drive from Calais (8 hours from Zebrugge).
