Vendee is a popular area of the Western Loire to visit with plenty on sun in the summer and glorious sandy beaches - great for family holidays. On a Taste-of-France a family reports on a delightful stay at Bazoges en Pareds. The Medieval donjon of Bazoges-en-Pareds in the south Vendee seems like it belongs in Spain or Italy.
Places to see in Bazoges en ParedsThe French village of Bazoges en Pareds is just 15 miles from Fontenay in the Vendee region. We rented a farmhouse 1 mile outside the village it took us longer to find the house than drive the 350 miles from Calais or so it seemed. The village proved to be a good choice for a base to tour the Vendee area there was lots to see and do within 1 hours drive. Bazoges is like most french villages every body works away in the week so it is very quiet. The old tower keep built in 1300s and is still in good condition. We were surprised to find at the back of the tower an information shop fully open with english speaking staff. Who gave us the key to the front door of the keep to and have a look around. The keep was about 6 floors all with furniture and knight`s armour swords bows. The view from the top of the tower is well worth the effort of climbing all those stairs.
