Outdoor activities
For those guests who are interested in a more active holiday
there is lots to do.
Cycle around the local area. The gently rolling hills make for perfect
family cycling country. There are lots of interesting villages to explore:
at least 10 within a half days leisurley ride from the property.
In July the route of the Tour de France often passes within
a couple of km of the property.
Cycling on the Isle de Ré is very poular (see photos
right), as there are dozens of km of dedicatd cycle paths on very flat
ground with lots to see and do.
*Punt along the leafy canals of the Marais Poitevan around
Coulon. Closer to the coast explore the "dry" marshes with their
open landscape and wonderful aquatic and bird life
*For hikers there are regstered walks ("randonees")
around many of the villages. The maps are usually marked up on a wall
near the "Marie".
