There are many countryside walks in the locality which allow you to explore the area, and during the summer months enjoy tastings of the locally produced wines, Pineau and Cognacs. About 8 km away is the beautiful historic village of Aubeterre, which has a monolithic church, craft shops and a pretty square with restaurants. There is a river beach at Aubeterre and other options for outdoor activities in the area include walking, horseriding, canoeing and a small water park. There is also easy access to Bordeaux, Angouleme, St Emilion, Riberac, Perigueux, La Rochelle, Cognac and the Dordogne for day trips.

A wonderful stay

Jamie Liverpool Liverpool, Merseyside, England
Review Submitted: August 18, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
I had a very nice stay at the house the pool was really well maintained as was the house its self. I felt well informed on the events happening around the area. The Supermarket is big and affordable and only 5 mins away by car. Generally i found the locals to be friendly and helpful on many occasions when needing direction to certain places e.g Banks, Restaurants and Gift shops all in all i would defiantly go back.
