Scenic French Fishing

Indeed, water is a feature of the landscape of our village site. The small river le Loing runs on to the banks of the lodgings.

30 meters next to the lodges, are very pleasant fishing spots, available for children and adults. Many other peaceful places are located close to the Loing river... please feel free to discover them.

Not only are the lodgings approved by Gite de Peche, they also attain a special fishing distinction from the national renting lodgings Les Gites de France. You will find a special room for fishermen which contains a sink, fishing rod rack, fridge, fishpond, table and heater.

The Vend�e is dynamic and a special tourist region. It benefits from an extraordinary framework, taking in to its advantage the coast and its islands, as well as its bocage and countryside.

In the heart of the Vendean bocage, the lodgings are near historical buildings (castles, keeps...) and provide access to all kinds of sporting activities (tennis, swimming, boating...). We ensure that your visit will be too short to discover all of our beautiful area!

Scenic French Fishing - Located in Le Bocage Vend�en, 35 minutes from Le Puy du Fou, and less than 45 minutes from the sea and the Poitevin marsh, our small village offers you a nice discovery of countryside living.


In a preserved environment, this small village of former millers has kept its authenticity and its cordial environment. A causeway, a large garden surrounded by a river with pristine water (really nice for fishing), hiking and mountain biking trails... and other tourism activities, ensures a pleasant stay for couples or families.
