Nearby Towns
St Jean d'Angely, Cognac and Saintes are all within easy reach. Saintes is a chic river town with pedestrian streets, roman amphitheatre and a cultured air. Cognac is a charming and characterful town with an interesting produce market, famous jazz and blues festivals and a variety of recognisable cognac distilleries. You've tasted Remy Martin, now go for a visit and sniff it straight from the barrel. St Jean d'Angely is a typical rural market town which is very popular with many of our guests and also the ex pats, who are remarkably well integrated into local life. There is a swimming pool complex, river and lake and a wide selection of cafes and restaurants. Further afield are the fascinations of La Rochelle, Rochefort, Ile de Ré and some lovely seaside towns.
