Villa Sophora 8p

The Vendee Region

Les Sables d’Olonne (5 km):
Les Sables d’Olonne is Vendee’s best known and largest resort. With its long promenade, choice of wide sandy beaches and excellent quayside restaurants, it is a popular destination for a family seaside holiday. It has a thriving fishing port and world class marina which is the start and finish point of the prestigious Vendee Globe sailing event, a single-handed race around the world.
The Atlantic coast is under a kilometre from the park, the nearest beach just 2 km away and the famous Puy du Fou theme park just an hour away.
Le Puy du Fou is the fourth most popular attraction in France. It is a fantastic attraction for all ages, and more than a theme park in the traditional sense. It offers a selection of wonderful historical shows ranging from Roman circus games to world-class falconry. The main show takes place in the evening on a huge outdoor stage behind the ruined castle. It tells the story of the 700 years of history in the area in the form of a memorable sound and light show. You must allow a full day including the evening show at the park to make the most of it. A guaranteed unforgettable experience!
