Nature house in Moutiers sur le Lay

Welcome to this oasis of rest in the south of the Vendée! This ruralhut is situated on a charming six hectares estate, set near a wine town and only a 30 minute drive away from the beautiful Atlantic coast. During your stay you can enjoy the castle wines, which bear the name of the estate. The estate has three castle rooms, four safari tents, one holiday home, and one large heated swimming pool. This ruralhut is a very spacious and luxurious family lodge of approximately 80 m² (including the veranda). The living area has a cozy sitting area with a gas heater, a fully equipped open plan kitchen, two bedrooms, and a large bathroom with shower, toilet, and double sink. There is a lovely lounge corner and an outside dining table on the veranda. The porch is adjacent to your private garden with a large old oak with hammock, picnic table, and barbecue. The lodge is located in a particularly quiet area with a wide view of the hilly landscape and the castle.

The Vendée has a wonderful climate with almost as much sunshine as the Côte d’Azur. You can walk right into the forest from the ruralhut, going towards a river located further down or the Lac du Marillet. There’s much to discover on the estate itself as well though. A walk on the estate takes you past the vineyard, the old wine house, the restored pigeon tower,  the special Poitou donkeys, the old stables, the original canine, the ruins of an old castle gate, the sacred spring on the pilgrimage path to Satiago de la Compostella, and the long driveway. The surroundings and the landscape are varied, and there are many nice possible excursions to make: The Mareuil Wine Route, River de Lay, and D’Yon, Atlantic Coast, Golf de la Domangère and Puy du Fou.
