Group gîte for 13 · heated pool · Puy du Fou · Marais Poitevin

All together, each in your own space: in the middle of nowhere, in the middle of everything, our three old stone gîtes are a peaceful bubble in South Vendée.

Planning a family reunion, a birthday, a get-together with friends or somewhere to stay for wedding guests? At Les Gîtes de La Croix Liaud, in Rives-du-Fougerais (Vendée, France), our three 3-star gîtes can be booked together for 13 people.

Will everyone have their own space? Yes. These are three independent gîtes, each with its own entrance, kitchen, shower room and terrace with barbecue: 6 bedrooms and 8 real beds, all 2 m long.
- Aloe, 6 guests: ground-floor bedroom (180 × 200, washbasin), twin bedroom (90 × 200), mezzanine with its own door, overlooking the living room (140 × 200).
- Hibiscus, 5 guests: main bedroom (180 × 200, can be split, washbasin and toilet), bedroom for 3 (140 × 200 and 90 × 200).
- Agapanthe, ground-floor studio for 2: double bed 160 × 200.

Can we all eat together? Yes: Aloe's 35 m² terrace seats 13, and Hibiscus's large table lets you dine indoors.

What is there to do on site? Enjoy the fenced 10 × 5 m pool heated to 28 °C (mid-May to mid-September), the games room (pool table, table football, table tennis, outdoor games), the flower-filled courtyard and the large garden.

And nearby? Vouvant 5 min, Mervent forest 10 min, the Marais Poitevin 25 min, Puy du Fou 35 min. The Château de la Cressonnière, a wedding venue, is 800 metres away.

What about walkers and cyclists? Mervent forest and its lakes are 10 min away, walks start from the gîtes, and our closed barn can store 5 or 6 bikes.

When to come? Spring is perfect for a long weekend with friends or family: the heated pool opens in mid-May. And if summer gets hot, each gîte has its own fan.

What should we bring? Almost nothing: beds are made, towels are ready and end-of-stay cleaning is included. Washing-up liquid, laundry detergent, shower gel and shampoo are provided for the whole stay, and a starter kit (coffee, sugar, spices, oil) awaits you on arrival. Cots and high chairs are lent free of charge.

Pets? Possible, after talking it over with us.

We live on site: there to welcome you, there when you need us, discreet the rest of the time. Minimum stay 2 nights, 4 in July and August.
