The Poitou-Charentes / Vendee / Charente region


The Charente is famous for its sunny micro-climate. The countryside is undulating, growing sunflowers and grapevines. Producing its own famous delicious drink 'Pineau', a very nice aperitif. The way of life is relaxed and local people are very friendly.
The west coast of France is about 1.5 hours drive away. There you will find pretty white sandy beach and parts with high waves; good for surfing! In the other direction there is Arcachon known for its waves and blue sea.
There is a beach and lake with water sports and indoor/outdoor pools in Angouleme and other lakes with beautiful beaches at Brossac (10mins) and La Jimaye (30mins).
The Montmoreau-Saint-Cybard / Courgeac area
Everything you need is 5 minutes away at Montmoreau, local Carrefour supermarket, boulangeries, pharmacies, newsagents, bars, restaurants, banks, post office etc etc. The local market, 10 mins away, at Chalais on a Monday sells everything (including live chickens).
Bordeaux - 90mins, St Emilion - 60mins, Cognac - 50mins, Royan 90mins.
And last but not least there is Aubeterre! (10mins) Voted one of France's most beautiful villages, Aubeterre is most definitely worth a visit.
