Set in the South Vendee it is surrounded by fields of sunflowers, maize and wheat.

Les Garnes is only three hours from the port of St. Malo and close to the West Coast of France:
Accommodation
Les Garnes is ideal for holidaymakers who enjoy day trips to places of interest on and around the Atlantic coast, yet it is just far enough from those main tourist areas to be totally tranquil; the pattern of French rural life soon envelops holidaymakers here.
