Casas rurales Logis de Pierre Levée

Ideally located at the gates of Niort and on the edge of the Marais Poitevin, in a bucolic setting, full of authenticity and charm, it will only take you 5 minutes leaving Niort by the South to find us and come and enjoy this timeless interlude.
A family property for 3 generations, we wanted to welcome you to the Logis de Pierre Levée to share this place of charm and tranquility with you.

Situated on a hillside and overlooking the former Gulf of Pictons, now the Marais Poitevin, Le Logis de Pierre Levée was built around the 15th century. This stately home has retained elements of the past, such as its tower, its bread oven and some underground passages, the secret of which remains well-kept by our family.

Property of the family of the Lords of Châteauneuf until the first rumblings of the Revolution, Le Logis de Pierre Levée then passed from family to family, until Jean Richard who was born here in 1921. He spent his entire childhood there, discovering his passion for animals; a passion, which he would later cultivate by creating in 1963 "la Mer de Sable" in Ermenonville (Oise), the first French amusement park, then later the Jean Richard circus.

Our 3 rooms are located in the main building, and have retained some of these multiple stories.
Finally, the property is well guarded by Mezo, our faithful companion, as well as two gates which close it off allowing you to park your vehicles in complete safety.
