This lovely cottage is set in rural surroundings with the river Charente 300m down a small track. There is a little stony beach into the river from which you can swim, canoe or fish. Several excellent golf courses and horse-riding centres are within easy reach, the nearest being only 15 mins away just outside the beautiful Roman town of Saintes, where you can find indoor and outdoor pools and plenty of other things to do. The countryside is ideal for cycling as there is little traffic. There is an abundance of local châteaux and vineyards where they are happy for you to taste their wines and cognac. Restaurants and bars abound as do fascinating activities for all
The beautiful sandy beaches are within 40 min with safe bathing for children Our lovely rural retreat is an ideal spot to sit peacefully watching the wildlife particularly the birds which can be seen on the marsh during migration There is much fun to be had watching the nesting storks go about their business from March-August
