“Amazing and friendly Guest House in a beautiful location”
Amazing and comfortable Guest House in the midst of the Marais Poitevin, hosted by the lovely Marlene and René! Peaceful green surroundings and a direct access to a river canal at the foot of the garden made our quick stay memorable and enjoyable. Breakfast is awesome, don't miss René's exceptional omelette, made with freshly laid eggs! We'd love to be come back longer!

“Excellent stay, amazing breakfast and great location!”
Location is amazing and the the property is really good for children. Lots of ducks and chickens on site, lots of fruit and veg grown, etc. On a clear day, the sky is amazing. We got to sit out at night and saw many shooting stars! Lovely clear skies. This was our second time here in 2 years and we saw shooting stars both times! Breakfast is amazing and the hosts are very welcoming.
