Nous avons passé ma famille et moi un bon séjour en Vendée.
Très bel accueil de Martine et Jean qui nous ont offert des spécialités vendéennes.
Discret tout en étant disponible, Martine et Jean ont été de bon conseil pour trouver des activités (balades à vélo, balade en barque dans le marais poitevin,) et des restaurants.
Je vous recommande vivement le gîte l’atelier de la Rousselière. C’est un vrai QG reposant pour découvrir la région.
Encore merci pour votre accueil
