Local Attractions
Just 3 miles away is the lovely medieval village of Vouvant, with
its ancient walls and tower overlooking the Melusine river. A perfect place for
a picnic down by the river, or for the more energetic, climb the tower and enjoy
the spectacular views over the countryside.
Then there is the forest of
Mervent (10 minutes away), where you’ll find the fantastic Pierre Brune play
park, great for adults and youngsters, the Mervent zoo, and miles of mountain
biking trails. Great for cycling, walking, fishing, horeseriding, picnics and
watersports.
Mervent itself has spectacular views, and on the lake you can
hire boats or canoes. You’ll also find lovely little restaurants and creperies
tucked away in forest glades and ancient chateaux.
The nearby town of
Fontenay has a couple of Hypermarkets, a thriving outdoor market on Saturday
mornings, and numerous cafes and bars for you to visit on an evening. The
municipal pool here is also a favourite.
