About the host
Hosted by David Nicholls
We have lived here since 2005. We fell in love with this property at first sight. We saw huge potential in the Barns, Farmhouse and its outbuildings plus huge outdoor space ripe for improvement & conversion. Over time we have converted the Large barn into this gite and renovated the existing Farmhouse with an annex to provide another gite. (Both gites can be rented together to sleep up to 26, please enquire through advert 6864686.) After years of hard work converting and renovating this property into gites, we have also converted our own home (20 minutes away). We love our life in the Vendee!
Why they chose this property
The Vendee is renowned for its sunny mild climate. Our location is perfect being very close to the Marais Poitevin (or Venise Verte, a network of canals reclaimed from the sea) and Mervent Forest both lovely for walks, cycle rides, & boat trips. Nearby are historical buildings, Chateaux, Abbeys, and plenty of villages of character. The coast, beaches & islands of both the south Vendee & the Charente Maritime and beautiful La Rochelle are 1 hour drive. We love the edge of village location ensuring relative peace but not isolation.
What makes this property unique
We have converted the existing large farmer’s outbuilding into The Barn Gite. The property is completely self contained with its own entrance driveway and parking. There is a separate rear garden with a stone built BBQ and dining furniture. The garden also contains the private above ground pool. The Barn has existing features such as beamed ceilings and stone walls. There is also the opportunity to rent the barn with the another property The Farmhouse to provide accommodation for up to 26 people, please see advert 6864686.
