Whether you are in the Marais poitevin or elsewhere, bed and breakfasts follow the same concept: inhabitants have one or several rooms to rent, and the latter are set up to welcome travellers with the necessary comfort.

Generally, one night in a bed and breakfast costs around 20-30€, prices can go up depending on how the owners price the rooms and what the services are. Please note that the price always includes breakfast. Some of the owners can also be table-d’hôte, which means that dinner is also included. It is not systematic, but it is still convenient when there is no restaurant nearby.

Unlike a restaurant, you just have one menu, generally taken in the dining room or the owners’ kitchen. And what can be friendlier than a good meal? It’s the perfect opportunity to talk to the owners, who usually prepare a meal with local ingredients from where they live.
