    Thank you Karen and Jon for such an amazing holiday. The cottage was lovely and you were perfect hosts. Coming here feels like our home away from home!

    Prachtige ruime locatie in een mooie omgeving! Het heerlijke koele huisje heeft alles wat je nodig hebt voor je vakantie. Erg handig dat er een wasmachine, vaatwasser en dubbele oven is. Vanaf je huisje loop je een heel klein stukje langs de weg waarna je door het hek toegang krijgt tot een enorm grote tuin met overkapping om te eten, heerlijk zwembad, grote tuin om te zonnen en daarachter nog een groot weiland om te spelen. Zoveel privéruimte hebben we nog nooit gehad tijdens een vakantie. De gastvrijheid van de lieve eigenaren maakten de vakantie helemaal perfect!

    We hebben een heerlijk verblijf gehad bij Jon & Karen. We werden gastvrij ontvangen. Er stond een flesje wijn en een lekker koud biertje klaar.
    Het zwembad was echt een pluspunt. Zeker gezien de zomerse temperaturen.

What to do?

Coast and Beaches
The Vendee Region and surrounding area has over 200 kilometres of sandy beaches, including numerous awarded blue flags; there is no wonder that this part of France is the second most visited in the whole of France after the French Riviera. Vendee France, situated on the French Atlantic Coast south of Nantes and the Loire, is a revered French destination famous for phenomenal beaches and it's laid-back lifestyle. Beaches in the Vendee are by far the most popular tourist attraction this side of the country. Several prominent western and northern ports are located within two to four hours from the Vendee, making it a short day's travel from the United Kingdom.

Many notable French events happen around the Vendee, making history an interesting component of exploring. Known today as a "departèment," the beaches in the Vendee date back to the twelfth century and possibly even further back in time. Past Les Conches—the beach that seems never-ending—and other magnificent Vendee beaches, the picturesque countryside, delicious regional food and dining, and wonderful French beaches, hotels and resorts complete an area that is one of the best finds along the western French coast.

Bound by scented pine woods and gently sloping dunes, the beaches of the Vendee are an ideal vacation spot for beach and sun lovers. The mild weather with it's famous micro climate makes a stay here even more agreeable. The excellent museums, beautiful churches, and historic abbeys offer even more to explore when visiting Vendee France.

An exciting cycling path is marked out along the marshes and mudflats, creating an avenue for experiencing the rich wildlife. Heading out for some great surf fishing along the ocean or at one of the areas lakes or rivers is also an easy feat among the extensive network of waterways.
