Rural gîtes in a wine-growing environment, on a farm in the heart of the Coteaux du Layon. Capacity of the two gîtes: 10 and 8 people.
In the heart of a 25-hectare vineyard, this charming gîte invites you to take a peaceful break amidst the vines of the Layon valley. Set in the wing of an elegant manor house, it offers an authentic and refined setting, ideal for recharging your batteries in the heart of nature. From the private garden, shaded by a hundred-year-old sequoia, you can enjoy uninterrupted views over the hillsides and savour the tranquillity of the Anjou countryside. Your hosts, passionate winegrowers, will be delighted to offer you a tour of the estate to discover the secrets of the vineyards and taste the wines that are so emblematic of the Layon region.
