Vacation Rental Description
Situated on the outskirts of the village of Bouin, Maison de Lavande is within easy reach of Niort which is served by the TGV line and the A10 motorway (10 minutes) which runs from Paris to Bordeaux. It is within an hour of both Poitiers, Limoges and La Rochelle airports, served by the budget airlines, nearest port is 4 hours away. Detailed map and directions given on booking. 
Expect long hot summers and short winters. The region is second only to the Côte d’Azure in the average numbers of sunshine hours annually. Poitou-Charente has a warm, temperature climate thanks, in part, to the Gulf Stream. This is an unspoilt region of frequent blue skies and warm sunshine. 
This region of France abounds in beautiful cities, ancient villages, rivers and forests. 
Deux Sèvres (capital Niort) 
Vienne (capital Poitiers) 
Charente (capital Angouleme) 
Each of the 4 departments possesses its’ own regional identity, largely as a result of its geographical location. The western most region includes both flat, grain-producing plains and coastal marshland – much of it a protected nature reserve. Inland to the north lies the celebrated network of tranquil waterways and lush meadow known as the Marais Poitevin, whilst further south the Cognac area is characterized by its wealth of productive vineyards supplying grapes for both the illustrious brandy and its aperitif close relative, Pineau des Charentes. Elsewhere, in northern Charente and Vienne, for example, you will pass through gently undulating fields of sunflowers, maize, rape and wheat. Throughout the region, the landscape also features coppiced woodlands of chestnut, oak, cherry, holly and acacia, lending colour throughout the seasons. Here and there, lone mature walnut trees stand like sentinels. The effect, whatever the season, is both beautiful and rich in its variety. 
The market towns of Chef Boutonne, Civray and Ruffec are on the doorstep and tourist attractions of Futuroscope (theme park), Cognac and La Rochelle are within easy reach. 
Location and Local Facilities: We are situated in a tranquil corner of the village of Bouin in Poitou-Charentes, one of the sunniest regions in France. The region is rich in culture and history, with Romanesque architecture all around. 
The gently rolling countryside is ideal for cyclists who prefer their bike rides not too strenuous, and there are pleasant local walks. This is the best way to observe the varied local bird life, which includes redstarts, golden orioles, hoopoes, and buzzards. 
At the nearby town of Chef-Boutonne, the chateau at Javarzay is one of the most important Renaissance chateaux in Poitou, with park and fishing lake. About 20 minutes away is Melle, where you can visit the silver mines of the Frankish kings, and the ‘triad’ of Romanesque churches, or stroll through the themed arboretum. Within 30 minutes’ drive there are a number of zoological parks, a wide variety of museums, and golf courses.  
A little further afield, but still within an hour’s drive, the Marais Poitevin offers trips along the maze of canals, the town of Saintes has Roman remains and Mediaeval churches and offers boat trips on the river Charente, while at Cognac you can visit the warehouses of the major Cognac producers.) 
At Poitiers, the Futuroscope is a vast theme park with attractions to suit all ages and special shows during the summer. On the Atlantic coast you will find a number of characterful seaside towns such as La Rochelle, with its fine port and towers, maritime museum and aquarium, or Rochefort, 18th century naval town with its imposing ‘Corderie Royale’ (rope factory. 
For music and culture lovers, the region has a wealth of annual music and dance festivals, for example, classical music or jazz at Melle (late May) Saintes (July), or Angouleme (September/October); folklore at Confolens (August); or cinema at La Rochelle
