La Blatière GITES– THE FARMHOUSE & STABLES (sleeps 10)

Picture your perfect French gîte holiday…

Wooden beams and wood burning stoves… cosy bedrooms, iron bedsteads and fresh linen… lazy lengths in the pool… neighbouring village, with boulangerie and bar/restaurant… or dine al fresco beneath the twinkling stars and fairy lights…La Blatière has it all… and more.

Just over an hour’s drive from La Rochelle, Nantes and Poitiers airports and within easy reach of Ferry Ports and the TGV (high-speed train) network, The Farmhouse and Stables at La Blatière make a beautiful setting for you and all your friends and family.

Set in half an acre of land with fruit trees, plants and lawns and surrounded by winding lanes and farmland, the LA BLATIÈRE GITES make the perfect location for large family or friend get-togethers (sleeps 10). It consists of two fully equipped holiday homes (THE FARMHOUSE GITE and THE STABLES GITE) complete with a 10m covered inground swimming pool with inflatables, free superfast fibre Wifi, books, DVD's, bikes, fitness/games room, indoor and outdoor games, terraces, outdoor dining areas, BBQ and gardens an outdoor infrared sauna and a Type 2 Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Point. Our little part of south-western France also boasts 2400 hours of sunshine a year making it the second sunniest part of France and the perfect place to enjoy an all-year round holiday and the peace and tranquility of country living but still be close to all that Poitou-Charantes has to offer.

This perfect, easy-to-reach location means there are so many wonderful things to do on your doorstep or slightly further afield. A leisurely stroll will take you into the local village for a coffee or to pick up a baguette or 10 mins along the road try Go Karting or the Parc Aventure with the kids, fishing at Pescalis or Moncoutant with its restaurants and market. Then just a little further away you can explore the beautiful cites of Niort, Poitiers and La Rochelle, go golfing at Bressuire enjoy the excitement of Futurescope, step back in time at Puy du Fou. Why not visit the wolves at the Zoodyssee or enjoy a relaxing day boating along the canals of France’s own Green Venice and there is so much more too… you will be spoilt

We can’t wait to welcome you to La Blatière –and with over 80 five star reviews from guests who have stayed with us - it truly is your little piece of French heaven…

About your hosts

Paul and I dreamt of relocating to France so we left our careers in advertising and finance in Edinburgh, hired a motorhome and set out to travel around the country until we found the perfect location.

And we found La Blatière…

We loved the idyllic rural setting, the charm of the stables and farmhouse and the overall sunny climate. Its location close to everything this wonderful region has to offer made it the perfect place for us to invite guests to.

Since making it our home, it’s lived up to all we hoped it would be and the warmth and friendliness of the local people has been so touching. We look forward to welcoming you to La Blatière too…
