The surrounding farmland has fields of sunflowers in summer and apple and pear orchards with fruit in the autumn. Le Jubeau is in the commune of Préveranges, where there are two small general stores, post office, and bar. Ten minutes away is the picturesque town of Ste-Sévère-sur-Indre, with a good selection of small shops. The larger town of La Châtre is just twenty minutes away and is home to a Saturday morning market on the main square. To the south lies the market town of Boussac, dominated by its ancient château where Georges Sand is said to have discovered the original unicorn tapestries! The village's museum of rural life is open to the public during the summer months. A short drive to the north-east lies the wine-growing area centred round the town of Châteaumeillant. There is also a wonderful, large lake with fishing, water sports, picnic areas and beaches at nearby Sidiailles.
