Introduction

Formerly a convent school La Vieille Ecole is situated in a small, typically French village named Taugon.

Committing to comfort, charm and a warm welcome we offer twin, double or family rooms. A bed and breakfast but in a hotel sized building, we can accommodate up to 20 people ideal for large groups, family gatherings and parties. We have our own separate house therefore noise would not be an issue! Our facilities include swimming pool, boules court, children´s play area and the use of community tennis courts. There is designated parking for cars and secure area for motorbikes and cycles.

The village itself has a small grocery store/café, restaurant, boulangerie, bar/tabac, post office, tennis courts, campsite, small children´s park, library, football pitch, photographic museum and designated walk ways and cycle routes.

With an exceptional 2400 hours of sunshine per year, on par with the French Riviera, we are located in the Charente Maritime and bordering the National Park "Marais Poitevin", Vendee also know as the "Venise Verte". Taugon is set between sea and marsh, offering a diverse range of activities and a wealth of culture and history.

Only 30 minutes drive away is the third most visited city in France; La Rochelle. Host to countless events and festivals, including Grand Pavois, the largest boat show in Europe and the International Film Festival. The city has beautifully maintained its past architecture, making it one of the most chic, picturesque and historically rich cities on the Atlantic coast.
