Domaine de la Bredurière is a charming estate of 6ha. not far from the picturesque winetown Mareuil sur Lay and only a 30 minutes drive from the beautiful Atlantic coast and her sunny sandbeaches.

The Vendée has a pleasant climate with almost as much sunhours as Côte d’Azur. The historic buildings such as the dovecote,stables,dogkennel,holy spring and winery make the ancient history of this extraordinary place undeniable.
Domaine de la Bredurière is because of her “southern” appearance the ideal destination for a tranquil vacation for young and old.

Via a long shadefull drive you reach the estate Bredurière and are able to spot the charming castle.The estate is surrounded by a sloping landscape and a forest bordered by a small river. The castletower has a breathtaking view of the surroundings that even reaches the coast.
The 17th century dovecote is restaurated and still functional.The doves of Bredurière fly in an out the tower when not peacefully circling it. Via a spiraling staircase you can have a peak in the nesting places of the pidgeon house.
The “sacred” spring on the estate is part of a pelgrimage to Santiago de Compostella and is one of the special places of Brédurière. The old stables are still intact and are sometimes used by guests.
The henhouse and pigshed are being restored to their old function.
On the edge of the forest is the dog-kennel of the old castle. It is still in original state but currently being used as a playground. Around the kennel there is a trampoline, swingset, pingpong-table and a small soccerfield. On the courtyard next to the entrance to the pool is the ‘jeu de boules’-lane.
The large heated pool (100m2) is completely walled-in and centrally situated on the estate. Because of the old walls, olive trees and lavender, the pool has a typical southern appearance and is a lovely place to relax and cool off.
