Walking distance to the attractive, prosperous village of Montemboeuf with all basic facilities, shops and restaurant as well as tennis courts and a lively weekly market. Angouleme, the capital of the area, is a 20 min drive with its historic centre. 10 min drive to the Charente Lakes with man-made beaches, restaurants and many water based activities. Cognac, 45 mins, is famous for its brandy and vineyards and is worth a day trip, so too is Ora-Sur-Glanne, 30 min away, a village sacked during World War 2 which remains movingly as it was left, along with a modern memorial building of its history. The surrounding countryside is ideal for walking, cycling and horse riding. International airports: Limoges 70km/Bergerac 140km/Poitiers 144km.
