La Creuse is a truly beautiful part of Central France. It is essentially a heavily wooded rural area with small fields, proper hedgerows and farm animals reared by traditional methods. There is real pleasure to be found walking, cycling and exploring the network of lanes and chemins. There are many lakes to see locally, regular markets in local towns and historical sites worth a visit. The location of Beauvais can be described as secluded and calm. At 500m the air is noticeably clear and unpolluted.
