Activities around the Hotel

Just outside Niort, at only 15 minutes from the hotel, discover the Poitevin Marshland, a lovely natural environment where you’ll find coolness during the hot summer days. Visit COULON, the Marshland capital, where you’ll be able to rent a boat with or without a guide, but with a map, to glide through this secret marshland, or rent a bike and take the most of dozens of kilometers of cycling paths (please see the reception for reduction on those activities).
