Hotel in Loire-Atlantique
in the Brière Regional Nature Park
An immersive stay in the Brière marshland
Somewhere between Saint-Nazaire, La Baule and Guérande lies La Mare aux Oiseaux Hotel & Spa in the Loire-Atlantique region.
Guests come from all over to enjoy the simple pleasure of getting away from it all to recentre and reconnect with nature.
On the Île de Fédrun, time passes more slowly than anywhere else, lulled by the soothing rhythm of the Loire which snakes its way round a mosaic of strips of land before meeting the Atlantic Ocean.
Hidden away in cabins and thatched cottages, with views of the marshes and the distant horizon, the 15 rooms and suites at La Mare aux Oiseaux Hotel and Spa have all the advantages of unusual holiday accommodation in the Loire-Atlantique region.
A relaxed pace of life and a sense of harmony reign supreme here; unlike like the island’s migratory birds, these qualities are a permanent feature.
From the rooms’ windows, listen to the silence which mingles with the birdsong of mallards, snipe, egrets, herons and kingfishers; outside, the marsh grasses perfume the air.
La Mare aux Oiseaux Hotel and Spa in the Loire-Atlantique region boasts 15 unique, comfortable and beautiful rooms in the main cottage, a cabin on stilts with the feel of an African lodge and Le Clos du Rouge-Gorge, a lush secret garden.
Featuring marshes and a little wooden bridge, wild natural surroundings, bamboo groves and a parade of colourful birds, stay at La Mare aux Oiseaux and wake up in an otherworldly paradise!
