Jmartinrg14 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Hi KeithMy husband Tom and I have a holiday home in St Florent des Bois ( on the road between la Roche and Mareuil sur Lay). We're fairly frequent visiters and have had our house for over tenyears now so are getting to know the area quite well.Where are you?.......the post code didn't mean anything I'm afraid. Are you permanently there? Lots of questions, all of which I'm sure you can work out for yourself. We have an old stone farmhouse about 1k from the centre of the village. The house has yet to be renovated to 21st or even 2nd half of 20th century standards but as a holiday home it siuts us for the time being.We'll be over at the end of the month for just over a week but then not again till Feb/Mar next year.happy to reply, answer questions or whateverregardsJane MartinPost edited by the moderators.

mint Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Ah..................what date is it today? I know it's Monday cause I've just returned from the Vendée.Anyway, I was told that Deux-Sèvres is also really Vendée, except that Napoleon called it 2S.Met at least 3 people who know about Wooly through his book. Will PM you soon but just back this evening and what with being glad to be still alive, looking round the garden, picking the walnuts, preparing and cooking dinner and catching up on here, je suis crevée!

dragonrouge Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Now live in the Vendee after some many years in isolation in Normandie.Love it but will probably be moving further south to an area I really love and that being the Rhone.One would have thought being a valley boy as in Porth in the Rhondda Valley and then careers both in banking and latterly law that I would settle down after perhaps 14 moves in my career.Seriously love the Vendee but today like most places is dire and have seen Clint Eastwood and his horse at the top of the street and bushwood being blown by the wind.
