The small hamlet of La Viollière is surrounded by gentle rolling countryside made up of fields and small woods. A very rural retreat but easy to find and well connected for easy exploring. A tranquil environment in which to relax for adults and with plenty of space and lots to do for families. Our nearest village, Breuil Barret (2kms), has a restaurant/bar and a good boulangerie-épicerie, a pretty old church, tennis court and two hairdressers! The nearby town of La Châtaigneraie (6kms) offers two supermarkets, bank, bars & restaurants and the normal complement of small shops. It has a very good outdoor swimming pool and tennis courts. The local leisure lake is just a few minutes away and is very popular for picnics and walks. It has a children's play area and fishing permits are available. A café/bar opens in high season and there is a small swimming pool adjacent which is very popular with children. Pedaloes and crazy golf available.
