La CIVELLE (as it's called) - A charming cabin with no electricity or water supply, but you can rest assured that you'll still have plenty of light; for water, there's everything you need in the communal sanitary facilities. On the Loire à Vélo and Vélodyssée cycle routes between Paimboeuf and St-Brévin, this is a lovely little pied-à-terre for 2 people. Free WiFi - Covered, heated swimming corridor. BBQ - Collective kitchenette
The setting
La CIVELLE lies in the shade of the maritime pines in the landscaped grounds of the Manoir de l'Espérance (XiXth century), an establishment awarded the Rando accueil, Vélo Accueil, Loire à vélo, Vélodyssée label, but not only.... since it has been awarded the Qualité Tourisme as well as the Ecolabel Européen since 2014. A pilgrim's stopover, it also welcomes visitors on their way - or in the saddle - to ST JACQUES de COMPOSTELLE.
