Home description

Le Bosquet features three delightful gîtes each with its own individual charm.

The owners have set out to create an environment that offers the perfect setting for a holiday. The comments from their visitors suggest they have succeeded. Set in nearly two acres – part of it elegant woodland – Le Bosquet still possesses all the advantages of its position in the heart of the Deux Sevres historic village of La Mothe St Heray which has been described as France's friendliest village. Charcuteries, boulangeries, patisseries, cafes, bars, banks, butchers, chemists etc. are all within a short stroll of our front gates.

Once inside the gates you can take pleasure in the magnificent Roman ended, floodlit, heated swimming pool, gymnasium, games room, the gardens and the private wooded grove that gives us our name (Le Bosquet). Here there is something for every member of the family to enjoy. Other recreational facilities on offer include a tennis court, a football pitch and bicycle tracks. For anglers there is the nearby Sevres Niortaise River.
