The ancient buildings of Logis de Beaulieu are located on the northern slope of a small valley. They are the centre of the private estate Domaine de Beaulieu with its small woods, fields, meadows, three lakes and the old cottage of Saint Germain (see Gite Saint Germain), located 450 metres from the manor house. The tennis court and the large swimming pool (8 x 14 metres) are used by the guests and the owner family only. Logis de Beaulieu is situated 500 km South of Paris and 37km South of Angouleme, the capital of the Department. The Charente is marked by a picturesque landscape with vineyards, pine, oak, and chestnut woods, as well as wheat, sunflower and corn fields. The Charente is the home of Cognac. The vineyards contribute to the beauty of the landscape, and the final product - the world famous Cognac Brandy - is of significant cultural and economic importance for the region.
