Had a fantastic stay in a beautiful house with extensive peaceful surroundings. The accommodation was superb.The bedroom and bathroom that we used were very luxurious. Similar to a 5 hotel.One of the best pools we have experienced and we have now stayed in 35 properties in France.Communication from owner and house manager was excellent. Thought Niort was very classy and Secondigny had a good restaurant by the lake. Would definitely recommend a stay.
Great house for 8 of us. Would have given it 6 stars if it had air conditioning. Temperatures were high thirties. Lovely quiet rural setting but within 30 minutes of large towns. Communication and contact was very very good. Would recommend to anyone.
Fabulous property, perfect for two families with children. The house is very well appointed and the grounds simply lovely. Lots of room for garden games and the pool is a very welcome retreat in the heat. Trips to Coulon for the Sunday market, barge trip and lovely restaurants highly recommended. And skip the nearest bakery in favour of that in Verruyes for the best croissants.
We loved our holiday. The house is spacious and well equipped, the grounds are private and verdant and the swimming pool was terrific. A great place to slow down and have big family meals in a gorgeous setting.
Quiet, peaceful and luxurious. It's a beautiful property in lovely grounds, well maintained and equipped. The hosts were welcoming and friendly and we felt like they really cared about us enjoying our time there. It was perfect for us - there was plenty of space for adults and small child, the rooms and beds were very comfortable and the swimming pool was wonderful. Highly recommended.
The perfect & most relaxing getaway in the French countryside
La Batonniere is a delightful property set in the beautiful French countryside. The house is extremely comfortable and outfitted with all necessary amenities for a stay in complete luxurious and relaxing surroundings. The pool, hammock, trees, flowers, herb garden at your finger tips all add to the comfort and charm of La Batonniere. Highly recommended villa. We would be so lucky to visit again!
If you are seeking the perfect French country house holiday you will be hard pushed to find a better choice. The rooms and decor are simply beautiful and the house is full of wonderful charm that makes you feel instantly at home. We had the most amazing week here and cannot wait to return.

Chose this property to spend my 50th Birthday and could not of picked better. We all had an amazing time and will defo be back. Thank you Ian and Amanda for the thoughtful gift for my birthday⊠you made my day extra special. The house, the grounds⊠the pool⊠incredible. We have stayed in plenty of VRBO properties and this absolutely is one of the best 2 ranking if not THE best! Thank you for allowing us to stay⊠we will absolutely be back!
La Batonniere came fully up to our expectations for a relaxed holiday in a fascinating part of France with many opportunities to explore the countryside, culture and food. The house is very comfortable for a family of four (two teenagers) and two grandparents with plenty of space, indoor and out (including pool, bikes, tables, chairs, umbrellas etc) for everyone. The owners, Amanda and Ian have done a great job fitting it out as a relaxing home with everything you could need for a two week stay. Simon and the team looking after the house were extremely helpful and responsive. All in all highly recommended.
The house has been beautifully furnished with some lovely items and great bathrooms. The picture of the property and grounds shows beautifully manicured gardens but this was not the case - whilst we appreciate temperatures were very high, there seemed to be no garden maintenance- everything is parched and thistles and weeds are in abundance in the grassed areas, with a 2 year old walking around this was a problem. We were advised on arrival that the pool liner needed replacing and indeed the pool was not, in our eyes, of the standard we would have wished for. There were a number of issues which we were in touch with the owners about and they were responsive. They assured us that our points would be taken into consideration going forward. Overall we enjoyed our stay but it is often the little things that cumulatively become bugbears.
We had such a wonderful week at La Batonniere
The house is in the middle of nowhere and one of it many plusâs points, itâs was so peaceful and the setting is simply stunning. However you could drive to local towns easily and not to far 10 minutes to a huge supermarket.
wildlife was also amazing, butterflyâs, moths, bird life and a red squirrel! Not to
Mention the two cow neighbors. It has something for the young and old. My son could boot a football without the ball going close to roads or flowers, something he doesnât experience in our own garden.
The pool was very warm 28, our week wasnât the best weather wise but we still used it every day even in the rain!
The small touchesâŠ.Zara bath and moisturizer different smells in the en suits and main bathroom, all smelled amazing! The seating in the garden all very comfortable, the kitchen had everything to
Cook up a storm, or the bbq was very adequate even for my bbq mad partner.
Fresh herbs in the garden to use for cooking.
The communication from the host and management all connected via the same whatâs app they arrange before you arrive, any questions or issues where answered or sorted so quickly, something I have only experienced in 5 star resorts.
The Wi-Fi is also great for streaming and general use, itâs a big place and yes there are dead spots but the boosters are everywhere even by the pool area.
The house is also beautifully decorated and a lot of thought has gone into every room.
We would recommend!

Das Herrenhaus La BatonniĂšre ist wunderschön, elegant, ĂŒberaus gerĂ€umig und sehr stilvoll und mit viel Liebe eingerichtet. Es liegt in einem sehr groĂen, gepflegten Garten, in dem traumhaft schöne Hortensien und Rosen in voller BlĂŒte standen. Der groĂe und beheizte Pool lĂ€dt zum Baden und Verweilen ein. Die sehr groĂe KĂŒche ist hervorragend ausgestattet, so dass die Zubereitung der Mahlzeiten - aus Zutaten vom Markt im nahegelegenen Parthenay - ein VergnĂŒgen war. Wir wurden durch das im Nachbarort wohnende, ĂŒberaus sympathische, englische Verwalterpaar sehr herzlich und auf unseren Wunsch hin mit einem sehr leckeren Abendessen und fĂŒr uns bereits getĂ€tigten EinkĂ€ufen empfangen. Es fehlte uns an nichts. Die Verwalter und auch die netten EigentĂŒmer standen uns ĂŒber eine WhatsApp-Gruppe stets als freundliche Ansprechpartner mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Wir, zwei befreundete Familien mit Kindern und Hund, haben uns in La BatonniĂšre sehr wohl gefĂŒhlt und kommen gerne wieder.
This house is amazing, we have just returned from a wonderful stay ⊠the grounds were beautiful! Just what we were looking for ! There was everything we needed in the house ⊠exceptionally well maintained and would not hesitate to return! Thanks soo much
The house has 4 large luxurious bedrooms and is furnished to a high standard with very relaxing furniture. There was lots of room for our group of 10 (6 children and 4 adults).
The TV room and lounge are very comfortable and the kitchen large and well supplied with equipment for lots of home cooking. The kids loved the pool and the adults loved the table tennis table. Many nights were spent outside looking at the stars on the numerous clear nights we were lucky enough to have.
There are patisseries, boulangeries, supermarkets and interesting towns (Parthenay and Niorts) a short drive away.
This is an absolutely stunning property. It is very quiet, but just a short drive to Parthenay's shops and markets. It's the only house that we've gone back to. I think that says it all.
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt in diesem groĂzĂŒgigen Anwesen sehr genossen. Das Haus und die Schlafzimmer sind sehr liebevoll eingerichtet. Die Temperatur des Pools war sehr angenehm. Der Hausmanager hat sich sehr gut um uns gekĂŒmmert.
Ian and Amanda's international careers have meant a life time living in various locations, mostly in the Middle East, North Africa and currently India. A few years ago they decided to buy a forever home in a peaceful and beautiful location. Having a love of France they decided on the rural, authentic and unspoilt region of Deux Sevres.
Ian and Amanda looked at over 30 properties before falling in love with La Batonniere. Many houses they saw had been spoilt with unsympathetic renovations but La Batonniere still had all the charming original features of a classic French manor house. Large rooms, exquisite original stone floors, a winding drive and wonderful outbuildings all result in a very special place. La Batonniere is not just a holiday rental, it is a proper home from home.
Since purchasing the property Ian and Amanda have made a number of improvements. They have painted throughout, installed 2 new ensuites, a new family bathroom and redecorated every bedroom. There are also a new log burners in the day room and drawing room.
As avid chefs, the kitchen at La Batonniere is a cut above anything else you would find elsewhere. From proper chef's knives (sharpened professionally each year) to a whole section of pots and pans, glassware - everything you need to prepare great food in an unparalleled setting.
