Farmhouse with Poitou donkeys, goats...

Are you looking to recharge in the peaceful countryside? Do you love animals—especially donkeys and goats? We’d be delighted to welcome you to our cottage for 4 people. There are no other cottages on the farm grounds, and you won’t have to share any space with other guests—you’ll have the place all to yourselves!

Our cottage, with no neighbors directly across the way, is located in the heart of Poitou in the small, bucolic village of Crézières (population 40), which is part of the municipality of Chef-Boutonne.

The beds are made upon your arrival.
