self-catering bungalow rentals in Sigournais
- Description
Enchanting barn in rural hamlet near Sigournais, Vendee. A newly converted 17th century barn lovingly restored to retain its character and history. Originally built before the Vendee wars but burned by troops of the revolution in the 18th century, evidence of this can be seen on the stones of the walls where the colour has turned from creamy yellow to a rose hue. It is spacious with lots of natural light and is furnished to the highest standard for 6 guests. A perfect base for exploring the Vendee and its history - or simply relax and enjoy rural France and its Atlantic coastline. The barn is located near the village of Sigournais and its medieval chateau. The nearest large shopping centre is 10 minutes away in Chantonnay although there is a shop in Sigournais where you can buy virtually everything that you might need and this is only 5 minutes away. The Vendee is renowned for its excellent climate - as much sunshine as the Cote d'Azur. NOW WI FI ENABLED
