Close to cycling, fishing, and more, this family-friendly vacation home brings it all within reach. With convenient onsite parking, you'll be ready to make the 13-minute drive to Marais Poitevin Regional Nature Park or the 10-minute drive to La Rochelle Central Market.

After you return, you can unwind by the heated pool or sip a drink in the garden; you may also like the deck or patio and outdoor furniture. For a change of scenery, come inside and try your hand at table tennis, or enjoy the free WiFi, cable/satellite TV, and DVD player.

This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom rental features a dining area, a BBQ grill, and a desk. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, towels, and toilet paper. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a lobster pot. And you won't have to pack extra clothes, because you'll have a washer and dryer, too.
