The fishing here is first class with carp of over 30lbs and large shoals of roach and bream, there are plenty of fishing spots to be found on the island and along the river bank. A fishing licence can be bought in the local fishing tackle shop. The clarity of the water makes swimming a pleasure, whilst the towpaths allows pleasant walks in either direction. Much wildlife, including hoopoes, heron, golden orioles and kingfishers, can be seen. The nearby village of St Simeux is within walking distance, there is a a riverside bar and restaurant which also sells fresh bread daily. The ancient small town of Chateauneuf sur Charente (6km) offers a good choice of shops, including brocantes, boulangeries, tabac, pharmacies, supermarkets, a fresh fish market (try the oysters!) and restaurants.

Further details for this vacation cottage rental in Charente, France

The old Distillerie' has large windows with river views and on this beautiful river island of about 2 acres on the river Charente between Cognac and Angoulême. The property is close to the riverbank with its own garden and, since it is the tip of the island and almost surrounded by water, it is perfectly secluded. Access to the house is by a private bridge and you can drive directly to the house where there is a parking space. The island enjoys outstanding scenic river view and the surrounding area is rural with some attractive small villages nearby. There is a local riverside bar and restaurant. The small town of Châteauneuf sur Charente is a 5-minute drive away. The owners live in a separate, charming house on the island.
