Wonderful hosts. Great food. Warm and cozy beds. Beautiful B&B. We cannot wait to go back again! I traveled in August with my family to Le Clos de la Garenne. At the end of a day of touring, returning to Bridget and Patrick's was like coming home again. We stayed in the main house family accommodations with two rooms. The... More

We stayed here in mid August for a couple of night with our 3 daughters aged 7, 5 and 3 when we used the Clos de la Garenne as a base to visit La Rochelle and the area. Patrick and Brigitte are excellent hosts and make visitors feel very much part of the family. As well as breakfast we had... More

We had a great time. Our room was clean and comfortable. The dinner was a real treat. We sat in a covered outdoor area and enjoyed the fine food and interesting conversations of the hosts and other guests. Who could have guessed that Italians, Belgians, French and Canadians could all enjoy each others company with 3 or 4 different languages... More

It is a joy to return each year on our way South. The rooms, food and hosts, Brigitte and Patrick, are top notch. I would be very surprised if you can find a better B&B in this part of France.

Having read some previous reviews, I warned my husband that the dogs had a reputation for friendliness, but he was still surprised when he... More

We spent a lovely and tranquil week here when we were on our honeymoon and it's a very special place! There is all sorts of wildlife here including hummingbird hawkmoths, which are wonderful to watch flitting around the hollyhocks. Brigitte and Patrick are brilliant hosts and really go the extra mile in looking after their guests - their dinners are... More

Excellent standard of spacious accomodation, plenty of character and wonderful breakfast. Our stay was too short, great base to visit La Rochelle, Marais Poitevin and the surrounding areas. Happy memories, best wishes to Brigitte and Patrick.

We stayed here again this year and Brigitte and Patrick were as usual the perfect hosts. Quiet, clean and friendly, I do not know why we stayed only for one night! My wife and I are quite "fussy" where we stay and this B & B ticks all the boxes.

Stayed two nights , had wonderful food ,service and quietness. Arrived late on first night but Patrick and Brigitte still fed us very well. The grounds are a delight with plenty of wildlife, just the job for a pre breakfast stroll. We will be going back and use it as a base to visit La Rochelle, the Marais de Poitevain... More
