La Renaudrie is about 40 minutes away from sandy beaches at Meschers sur Gironde and St Georges de Didonne. This is a quiet rural corner of France ideal for family holidays. The local micro climate gives this area the more hours of sunshine than any part of France - other than the Mediterranean.
The population density for the Charente Maritime is on a par with Cumbria – England’s least populous county – for those used to Britain’s congested roads the comparative peace of rural French roads almost makes driving a pleasure again. Royan to the west of La Renaudrie, is a popular holiday destination for the French who enjoy the excellent beaches & appreciate the local oysters, mussels and freshly caught fish. The local restaurants have excellent fresh fish dishes.
The nature reserve at Vitrezay is local to La Renaudrie & well worth a visit particularly in the migratory seasons. Cognac, Bordeaux, Saintes, La Rochelle and St Emillion are within easy reach.
