Maille

Sud Vendee.. Haut Bocage.. Coastal Region.. Marais Poitevin.. Marais Breton.. Bas Bocage.. Plaine.. Marais Olonne..
Situated on the Marais Poitevin  at the crossroads of the D25 and D15 and on a loop of the river Sevre Niortaise,this attractive little village rarely gets a mention in most guides, but it has all the elements that make for a great detour on any visitors itinerary.
The village has a very attractive main street which includes a church with beautifully sculptured Romanesque  porch, old buildings and leads to the port de Maille complete with  picturesque bridge, locks and centre for hiring motorboats for discovering this corner of the Marais Poitevin.
The village also has an attractive windmill and the workings of one of marvels of marshes, that of the l'Aquaduc de Maille built in 1654.
Around the village there are excellent walks and cycle tracks as well as drives for those of restricted mobility.
