Description: New from Bradt is the thoroughly updated second edition of The Vend e the only English - language guidebook to focus on this part of Pays de la Loire. Also covered in this guide to an increasingly popular French region are Nantes Pornic La Rochelle and the le de R . Written by Angela Bird who for almost 50 years has owned a home in the region and award - winning travel writer Murray Stewart and updated by adventurer Ed Cooper Bradt's guidebook offers comprehensive coverage of a beguiling area detailing everything from family holidays to walks cycling local cuisine and history. The Vend e offers all the benefits of a destination that is well established with both French and British visitors with easy access and short drive times via UK ferries adding to its appeal. Popular with campers and self - caterers the Vend e's sunny climate and 140 km of sandy beaches plus its tree - lined canals and open marshland make for a diverse outdoor playground. Bradt's The Vend e includes suggestions for walks and the best places for birdwatching. This goes hand in hand with a new regional policy of promoting recreation premised on nature and wellbeing. Thanks to the authors rich personal history with the area the guide also reveals the quirks and themes which give the Vend e its own distinct character as well as straying just beyond the area's boundaries to incorporate La Rochelle and Nantes both entry points for those arriving by air and both offering urban distractions for the occasional rainy day. Although the region has no true cities or even large towns the guide includes details of the many local museums which provide easily accessible insights into the bloody history of an area which has at times been central to the evolution of modern - day France. New elements in this edition of Bradt's The Vend e include expanded coverage of France's most dazzling son - et - lumi re show and new restaurant listings that reflect the region's growing reputation for wine and Michelin - starred eateries as well as its long history as a paradise for seafood - lovers.
