Directions
Driving from the UK
The cross channel ferries from Portsmouth and Poole to St Malo, Caen and Cherbourg in Northern Brittany give you the least driving time in France (3½ - 5 hours). While the Dover-Calais routes give the shortest crossing time, travelling time in France increases to around 7 hours.
From Caen, drive generally south on the free autoroutes A84 and N137 to Nantes and then join the A83 south towards Bordeaux but leave it at the junction with the D137 and head towards Sainte Hermine. From Sainte Hermine join the D8 until you see the left turn for La Jousseliniere.
From the Calais area, follow autoroutes to Rouen, Le Mans, Angers and Cholet. Leave the A87 at the junction with A83 south towards Bordeaux but leave it at the junction with the D137 and head towards Sainte Hermine. From Sainte Hermine join the D8 until you see the left turn for La Jousseliniere.
By plane from the UK and Ireland
It is now possible to get cheap flights from many of the regional airports in England, Scotland and Ireland to La Rochelle, Poitiers and Nantes. These airports are all between 45 minutes and 1 1/2 hours drive from our property.
