HOTEL - RESTAURANT LA VILLA ARTHUS BERTRAND

You will at once fall under the spell of the Arthus-Bertrand Villa, just as spellbinding as the island. Fully renovated, this former palm grove turned into a mansion house and then a hotel will accommodate you, your family and friends, in an exceptional setting, in the heart of the Bois de la Chaise wood. From the fi rst glance, you will be charmed by the large wooded park whose beauties will enchant your stay. The large reception rooms, the restaurant and the library thus open on a huge sunny terrace where it's nice to meet up in the shade of parasols. The swimming pool, the Japanese lodge and the resting corners have as decor the century-old palm trees and holm oaks whose welcome shade delicately protects from the hot Vendean sun. It's in the peace and quiet of this garden that you will enjoy rare and precious moments of relaxation. In a harmoniously revisited Victorian style, the mansion house bears testimony to the family past as publishers of travel books since 1797. The passion for the sea and navy can be read in the very neat decoration of the eighteen large bedrooms. Featuring its own restaurant, the Arthus-Bertrand Villa off ers you to discover simple and tasty dishes cooked by our chef who draws inspiration for his local and Vendean cuisine from the market stalls, with the island's fi shermen and market gardeners. Once passed the gates of the Villa, you will immediately be enchanted by the atmosphere of the place –warm, convivial, serene, restful–and you will not feel like leaving…
