Vouvant Cottage is a traditional home beautifully restored to offer comfort, charm and a little touch of indulgence, located in the historic village of Vouvant, officially classified as one of France’s ‘Plus Beaux Villages’.
This inviting 3-bedroom abode sleeps up to 6 guests and combines characterful original features with modern-day amenities. With the heart of the medieval village only a 5-minute stroll away, the cottage offers a perfect base for exploring the cultural gems and scenic beauty of the Vendée.
Step inside to discover an open-plan living space where timber beams, exposed stone and soft tones create an atmosphere of warmth and ease. The contemporary kitchen, complete with bar seating, opens onto a dining area and cosy lounge where guests can unwind with a glass of local wine and stay connected with Wi-Fi internet. Outside, the shaded dining terrace is ideal for breakfast after your morning trip to the boulangerie.
Upstairs, three attractive bedrooms provide restful places to retreat at the end of each day. One double features an en-suite shower room, while a second double and twin share a family bathroom. Outside, the lawned garden invites slow afternoons on a sun-lounger or head to the covered terrace’s hot tub for a moment of decadence.
Set by the edge of one of France’s most beautiful villages, Vouvant blends fairytale charm with everyday convenience. Wander cobbled streets to discover café-bars, a bakery and restaurants, and join a guided walk along the ancient ramparts for a glimpse into the past. Discover village walks by the Mère River or drive a little further south for kayaking and summer boat hire in Mervent.
Meanwhile, you’ll find fishing and forest walks near Fontenay-le-Comte, Renaissance history and vibrant markets in La Châtaigneraie and yet more idyllic nature across the Marais Poitevin. Families take note that the famous Puy du Fou is 46km away whilst glorious Atlantic beaches can be reached in less than 90 minutes. From timeless village life to the beautiful landscapes of the Vendée, Vouvant Cottage places you within easy reach of it all.
