Tres grand ,de la place pour tt le monde , jeux d'extérieur appréciés 1 gros bémol cependant par rapport à ce qui est annoncé : aucun réseau téléphonique quelque soit l'opérateur ( 1 peu de réseau sur le parking ) wifi et internet inexistants !!! Ce qui est tres gênant !!! ##### Christine B. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Franck T. 30 Sept 2018 #### Gîte agréable, propre, de qualité et reposant. Nous avons passé de très belles vacances dans ce gîte au centre de toutes les activités touristiques du département (Puy du Fou, marais Poitevin...) . Nous avons apprécié notre séjour dans cette belle région. Seul petit problème, les casseroles n'étaient pas toutes adaptée à la cuisson par induction mais cela a été signalé. ##### Franck T. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### denise k. 7 Aug 2016 #### idéal pour un groupe de + de 20 personnes Les points forts : Une belle surface habitable et extérieure. Bien équipé en matériel électroménager et en aménagements extérieurs (piscines, bbq, terrains de pétanque, ping pong). Un échange facile avec une propriétaire disponible. Les informations données (description, lieux pour les courses, accès internet)correspondent à la réalité Les bémols qu'il faut bien signaler : le parquet qui grince très fort dans l'Ethique, le coté très vieillot des chambres du Rustique, dommage aussi de laisser la vaisselle ébréchée. Mais les petits inconvénients sont déjà oubliés et grâce aux deux gites, nous avons pu être tous réunis (23 personnes). C'était cela le plus important, Merci Mme Bétard! ##### denise k.

Un peu isole mais tres calme et permet de s'amuser sans gener les voisins. Nous avons eu acces a la piscine couverte de l'autre gite qui est tres agreable. Donc tres contents. ##### Stephane R. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good 10 Oct 2013 #### Agréable dépaysement dans la campagne vendéenne Nous avons passé un séjour très agréable dans un environnement champêtre total. Le gîte est très bien équipé dans tous les secteurs, cuisine, couchage, piscine, jeux et jardin. L'accueil du propriétaire a été très convivial. La capacité du gîte est très largement dimensionnée, il y fait bon vivre. La période de la chasse ne nous a pas permis de faire le sentier des batailles. Deux petits inconvénients, la couverture téléphonique est limite, et pour les courses, il faut faire environ 15 km. Bien entendu c'est une contrepartie à la quiétude du lieu. Si vous souhaitez vous reposer c'est très agréable surtout quand le temps est de la partie.
