A ravishing verdant retreat linking the Marais Poitevin with the châteaux of the Loire region. Less than an hour from these famous sites, the Clos de la Ribaudière, whose foundations date back to the end of the 18th century, is an ideal location for a wonderfully relaxing discovery holiday. Closer by is Poitiers with its Roman art treasures and its Futuroscope park to enchant children and adults alike. Along the edge of the estate runs a river, and the heated swimming pool in the heart of the park just invites you to dive in. Its 41 rooms, restaurant and terrace are a true testament to the French art of living.
