La Salle des Fétes

Patio of La Salle des Fêtes, an outdoor space with seating and natural light, ideal for events and gatherings

An exceptionally spacious gîte for up to 16 people

With its name meaning “The Banqueting Hall”, La Salle des Fetes is an aptly named accommodation with five bedrooms. Occupying 60% of the traditional 19th century grange, it is exceptionally spacious and has been extensively modernised and renovated.

La Salle des Fétés has a very large, private, west-facing terrace offering views of the Vendéen countryside and spectacular sunsets – a perfect place to relax with a glass of wine, read a book or enjoy eating in the ‘plein air’. There is a large outdoor dining table with parasol and the terrace also enjoys the shade provided by two trees planted specifically for this purpose. Salle des Fétés has direct access to the shared pool from its terrace.

A walk through La Salle des Fêtes

After entering via the west-facing terrace, the large double French doors lead to a huge open plan dining/living area with exposed Charentaise stone walls, French oak beams and tiled floors throughout. This has a large dining table (for 10) and stored bookshelves. To the right is a second, equally large but more relaxed space with two comfortable sofas/sofabeds and a large screen TV with DVD player plus a supply of books and games. There is ample comfortable seating for all guests.

On the other side of the gite, through a double-action door, is the large kitchen. This has all the space and equipment for modern day living;
including a large double sink and drainer, burner hob, fan oven, microwave, large fridge/freezer, dishwasher, extensive work surfaces, ample storage
and all the pots, pans and utensils needed for your self-catering holiday. It accommodates another large dining table and chairs (also for 10) and
benefits from its own south facing external door and window views to open countryside.

To the rear of the kitchen is the generous, modern bathroom with double hand-basins, standard and two wet-rooms (one super-sized) both with jet and rainwater effect showers plus two private toilets.

In line with our eco-friendly approach, hot water is supplied by solar powered and electric boilers.

La Salle des Fétés shares the large security-fenced swimming-pool (10m x 5m) and associated play and park areas with the other gîtes.
This cottage has its own private access to the pool directly from the terrace.
