About
Le Repaire du Hibou is ideally placed between Nantes, Pornic and the Noirmoutier peninsula. The five-hectare estate does more than line up lodgings: the three cabins are far enough apart to preserve privacy and blend into a setting of woods, a pond and a mini-farm. The Cabane du Hibou is designed for two, with a private kitchen, shower room and WC, a wood stove, a 160 x 190 cm Breton box bed, a panoramic terrace and hammocks, from €160. The Cabane de l’Écureuil sleeps four plus a child under three, with a 180 x 200 cm bed, two single beds, a kitchen, a shower room, a terrace, hammocks and a wood stove, from €180. The Cabane du Héron, on the edge of the pond, sleeps six plus a baby, with three sleeping areas, two terraces, a large picture window, a kitchen, drinking water and electricity, also from €180. All the cabins are therefore far more comfortable than a rustic cabin. The estate is open all year and focuses on peace and quiet, biodiversity, the mini-farm and real independence. In 2026, discounts were offered from two nights during certain periods. It is a very versatile estate, suited to a romantic weekend as well as a family stay.
