The local market town of Matha and Aulnay, with supermarkets, bars
and restaurants, are both about 20 minutes’ drive away. Nere is
nearer, but with more limited shopping and dining.

The market town of St Jean d’Angely is about 30 minutes’ drive and
has many further attractions including go-karting, a leisure complex
as well as many restaurants, shops, pubs/bars and quaint cobble-
stoned shopping streets. For those travelling with children, there is
also a McDonald's at St Jean d'Angely.

All around the area are local producers and sellers of wines and the
area speciality of Pineau, selling directly to the public. Cognac,
the second most visited city in France, with its beautiful shops and
restaurants, is very popular for the imaginative guided tours of its
famous distilleries and their vineyards.

The beautiful Ile d’Oleron, with many good beaches is easily reached
in about an hour. The charming fishing town of Fouras, set on a
peninsula, boasts three attractive sandy beaches. A short ferry ride
away is the Ile d’Aix, housing a museum dedicated to Napoleon’s stay.

Rochefort has much to offer, including the Corderie Royale, the
longest building in Europe; the on-going construction of Hermione, a
full-size recreation of an 18th century wooden frigate, due to sail
to America; and the chance to cross the river on one of the
few remaining working transporter bridges.

Only an hour’s drive away is the famous Futuroscope at Poitiers, the
theme park with its amazing experiences of modern and future
technology.

Well worth a visit is the Roman city of Saintes on the River Charente
with its Arc de Triomphe, amphitheatre, Cathedral, Museum and
excellent hypermarkets and more traditional shopping, restaurants,
etc.

Activities:
The property is ideally situated for walking and cycling, with
fishing and tennis nearby. The well-stocked village shop is a
leisurely stroll from the house and is open daily. It is an ideal
place for a relaxing, stress free holiday and a paradise for
children, whether swimming in the private pool or going for a bike
ride around the village and lanes. There are many local walks
and interesting places to visit nearby; whilst the coast can be
reached within an hour, as can the adventure park Futuroscope in the
opposite direction.
