Les Maisons de Fontenelles: your holiday rental in Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie
How would you like a holiday at a French maison? Then head for Les Maisons de Fontenelles! Between back country and coastline, make yourself at home in your holiday residence in France's Vendée. The difference? Here, guests can disconnect and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Near Bluegreen Golf Course in Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie, your accommodation is surrounded by a lush greenery. Only a few kilometres from the beautiful beaches of the Côte de Lumière, it is the ideal location for combining relaxation and discovery.
The convenience of a holiday home in Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie at Les Maisons de Fontenelles
Welcome home! If you're a homebird, that's a good thing! You can take advantage of the facilities at Les Maisons de Fontenelles to spend time with family and friends. Your spacious 3 or 4 room duplex house (64 to 74 m2) can accommodate 4 to 6 people.
The essentials are there to make you feel at home:
- lounge with sofa;
- kitchen with electric hob, fridge, microwave grill, dishwasher, kettle and toaster;
- bathroom with toilet;
- terrace or garden.
Is the chef also on hols? Don't panic: the complex has two restaurants.
After a good breakfast in the sun, it's time for some activities. Spending the whole day behind a screen is not an option here (but Wi-Fi is available at the reception desk for those who find it hard to tune out). The young ones will enjoy the swimming pool with paddling pool while the grown-ups will have fun on the pétanque court... or maybe it's the other way around!
Who can boast that they have a golf course as an extension of their garden? Well, you can! So it would be a shame not to take advantage and perfect your swing. If you're not sure about playing like a tour pro, at least try miniature golf - it's a great way to create memories as a family.
Are you bringing a pet too? Good news: your holiday residence in the Vendée welcomes pets (for a supplement).
There's no place like home... but you must admit that it would be a waste to be in such a beautiful region without venturing outside. Start off by renting bikes to ride to the equestrian centre or just explore the local area. Before long, you won't be able to stop yourself from venturing out further. And you'd be right, because there are so many options!
Accommodation in the Vendée as a base for the west coast
Taking a holiday rental near Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie means being able to enjoy the great outdoors on long sandy beaches along the Atlantic Ocean. Plus all the pleasures of the seaside: lazing in the sun or building sand castles, for those who have (or still are!) children. But there's also a wide range of water sports on offer, including surfing, sand yachting, sailing, canoeing, paddle, kayaking, kitesurfing, longe côte and more!
Not sporty or much into physical activity? Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie is a lively seaside resort, ideal for walks. Early birds can even watch the return of the boats loaded with fish into the fishing port. There is something for everyone, especially for those who love grilled sardines! Yes, you can't visit Saint-Gilles without tasting the famous sardines that the town is now renowned for.
If you like it in a can, visit the Atelier de la Sardine and learn all about this little fish. After visiting the museum, you will find many specialities in the shop that will make your mouth water.
Anyway, is it not time for a drink? The perfect time for a wine tasting (in moderation!) in the cellar of the Brem vineyard, whose wines are gaining recognition. If you have some free time left before returning to the terrace of your Vendée holiday residence in Les Maisons de Fontenelles, take a detour to the salt marshes of Saint-Hilaire-de-Riez. You will learn about what the local sauniers do and discover that your dishes improve by adding local herbs and spices.
Les Maisons de Fontenelles: holiday homes for discovering France's Vendée region
Invigorate yourself with the sea air and local aromas of the Vendée islands. Take a boat to the island of Yeu and marvel at postcard-perfect scenery. Pedal along the rugged coastline with the aromas of eternal flower – the scent of happiness! Or take a trip to Noirmoutier: put your boots on and walk on the water at the passage of the Gois or, depending on the tide, dig for shellfish during a fishing trip on foot. The change of scenery will be dramatic in this protected environment... and your children will not have yet set foot on the island, but they will already be won over!
Tired of swimming and seafood? Take them to the Vendée Miniature Park, where they'll feel like giants in front of this impressively detailed animated reproduction of a 1920s Vendée village. Want to go big? Get out your map for Puy du Fou, the park is a one-hour drive from your holiday rental in Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie. Enjoy for an unforgettable journey through time. This award-winning park offers a unique immersion in different periods of French history. Head home starry-eyed!
As if on wheels!
Does your children's boundless energy seem not to fit with a relaxing walk in the countryside? Put them on the pedals of a velorail! Travel on a track car over 7 km of railway track linking Commequiers to Coëx via the Vie bridge and the village of Dolbeau. They will come back exhausted, while you will be revitalised!
So, are you ready for the Vendée? Oh, and one more thing: it's not called the Coast of Light for nothing, so don't forget your sun cream and sunglasses!
Book a day in the best amusement park in the world: the Puy du Fou! This theme park is 1h15 from your vacation rental, it's the opportunity to go there!
The residence is located right next to the Fontenelles Golf Club. You can access it with an extra charge.
Embark on a boat and discover the Island of Yeu and Noirmoutier.
