Home description

In the middle of 30 acres of private and listed woodland our large and private property will offer you the calm and beauty of French landscapes. Annie and Daniel, a franco- irish couple are happy to welcome you. Their refurbished 18th century mansion with the river Sèvre running in its garden has 2 lovely self catering and bright walk-in houses in a separate building. Recently a 3rd gite has been included, very similar to the other two, please contact the owner for details.

You can enjoy the walks in the park, along the river, in the woods and even play tennis on our “terre battue” court. A swimming pool has recently been constructed.

Our property is ideal to enjoy the calm and tranquillity of the country side with all the activities and services you need in the town of Getigne or Clisson only a few miles away and 45 minutes from NANTES. Nantes is a big town full of life with a very nice cathedral and castle where you can do lots of shopping and tasting of local products and wines. The Vendée, only on the other side of our garden, has a very rich past and offers many castles and attractions to visit. The area is rich in history, the sea is one hour drive away and The Puy du Fou, a renowned theme park is 30min away. You wont be without something to do!
