David and Emma welcome you to the La Tannerie chambres d’hotes, Farmhouse rental and La Petite Tannerie first floor Gite located in Vix a typical French village in the South Vendee and in the heart of the Marais Poitevin region of France.

La Tannerie is a 200 year old farmhouse which had not been lived in for over 30 years and is located in the centre of the village. It has now been renovated by local artisans and brought into the twenty first century, retaining some of the 200 year old features, making it a warm and inviting home that we share with our cat Nemo.

The swimming pool is heated and guests can relax on the sun terrace, the garden is enclosed, private and includes our “kitchen garden” alongside a flowered area.
