French term

logis

French to English Art/Literary History type of building
Le Bas-Poitou introduit également l’art décoratif au sein des ***logis***.

Would it be correct to translate "logis" as "manor house, called "logis"? I don't like versions like just "house" or "dwelling". They are too general. Could you suggest any better translations? Thanks in advance.

manor house

It is manor house...

The Logis de la Chabotterie, near St-Sulpice-le-Verdon; an elegant "manor house" where the Vendean general Charette was captured and interrogated. Now an informative museum and discovery centre, with large park, and a beautifully-tended garden.
