Local area

Hunters Retreat is in the small hamlet of Le Claray, 4km from the picturesque village of St Aubin des Chateaux, which has all the amenities you would need; mini market, bar, chemist, post office, bakers and butchers.

There is also an equestrian centre nearby.

Five minutes from Le Claray is a superb lake - Hunaudiere, with a great creperie and bar.

The historic town of Chateaubriant is just 12km away.

Nantes and Redon are approximately a 45 minute drive away.

The coast, La Baule, is approximately 1 hour away.

There is plenty to explore in the historic town of Chateaubriant.  The chateau was built during the 11th century by Lord Brient and many people settled around the foot of the chateau forming what eventually became known as the town of Chateaubriant.

Each year at the beginning of September, a 4-day Foire de Bere is held in Chateaubriant, with a live agricultural show, many stands offering wine tastings of regionally produced wines, plenty of food and drink stands and for those who are not faint hearted; some superb rides at the funfair.

St Aubin des Chateaux is ideally situated to explore nearby lakes with man-made beaches, travel to the coast and visit local ancient market towns.

Fishing

2km from Hunters Retreat we have our own private 5-acre fishing lake where the lake record stands at 44lb for 2009.

It is completely private and set in the middle of a forest. You don't need a licence and you can fish 24/7. The lake was stocked in 2007 with carp from 12lb to 37lb and sturgeon from 15lb to 22lb. Contact us for further details.
