Lairoux Area Information
The Poitou-Charentes / Vendee / Vendee region

This is the ideal spot for walking or cycling holidays and Lairoux is on the edge of the marshes (Le Marais) and the countryside is a bird watchers paradise. There are also 5 golf courses in the area and for a more tranquil day out - Le Marais Poitevin is only 30 minutes away where you can hire boats and take a trip out through the many canals.
The Lairoux area
Lairoux is a small village on a hill overlooking the beautiful Vendée countryside. The house has fantastic views over the marshes below! A new bar has recently opened inthe village, and we have a bakery van which delivers fresh bread & croissants everyday to the village.
Luçon is only 10 minutes away and makes a nice day out with a visit to the 600 year old cathedral or a saunter around the Jardin Dumaine.
The surrounding countryside is great to explore and there are many guided walks around the area - stopping off in many of the picturesque little villages for a coffee or beer - many having weekly markets and brocante or antiques fairs at the weekends.
For a more active holiday, there are many watersports available at La Tranche or Les Sables D'Olonne including surfing, sand kiting, diving and jet skiing.
