Les Ammonites is located in the Vendée Bocage, approximately a 50 minute drive from Nantes and the southern Vendée coast with its fantastic beaches. The Vendée has a micro climate, being the second sunniest part of France after the Mediterranean coast. The weather is generally good from Easter to the end of September, and the area is also a great location for autumn & winter holidays - with rural walks and bird watching nearby. The landscape is varied - with rolling hills, flat farmland with fields of sun flowers, and miles of sandy beaches along the coast. The area also hosts several world famous competitions - with the Tour de France starting in the Vendée in July 2011 and the Vendée Globe round the world yacht race starting in Sables d'Olonne every other November. The hamlet of Les Chaffauds is located only 3km from Sainte Cecile, which has a bakery, butchers, chemist and a bar. Another 5 minute drive and you will reach Chantonnay whichhas many supermarkets, restaurants, banks and a weekly market. In the summer there are many festivals and fetes held nearby, including a 3 day walking event and the French National Cycling Championships. All of the local villages and towns hold markets and the coastal towns have lots of evening entertainment on the beaches. Les Ammonites is only 30km from the fantastic Puy du Fou historical theme park where you will be transported back in time to the age of Gladiators, Vikings and Musketeers - an unmissable day out! There are forests and lakes nearby to explore, and the Marais Poitevin series of inland waterways and towpaths is only 45 minutes away. Les Chaffauds is approximately a 3 hour drive from St Malo, 4.5 hours from Cherbourg or 7 hours from Calais. Our closest airport is Nantes at only 50 minutes away, with the smaller airport of La Rochelle only 60 minutes away. The budget airlines of Ryan Air, Jet2 and Flybe all use these airports. Car hire is available from both airports |
