Officially part of the community of Château d'Oléron, the farmhouse is located near the Viaduct, between the Château d'Oléron town center and the town of Dolus. Surrounded by agricultural land and grassy fields, you will not hear the traffic of summer vacationers. A 5-minute drive (2.3 km) takes you to the natural sandy beach of Vertbois and a shopping center (with Intermarché supermarket). The farmhouse opens onto a country path leading to the island's many bike paths. The kids and adults can play ping-pong, badminton or kick a football on the the acre of enclosed, shaded, flowering land of the owners. The courtyard of this 500-year-old farmhouse is enclosed by small stone buildings (all beautifully restored) with an old watering hole in the center, now a tiny pond.
