WELCOME TO OUR CLIMATE & LOCATION
Poitou-Charentes is claimed to be the second sunniest region in France, and yes, we do get a great number of gloriously sunny days here with beautiful clear blue skies.
There are between 2000 and 2600 hours of sunshine each year with an average rainfall over the summer period at approximately 2/3rds of the UK.
Statistics aside, it is the afternoons and the evenings that are particularly warm and clear - just right for relaxing al fresco.
The Autumn is usually very bright and dry - with small Butterflies still feeding on the Wild Thyme in late October .
Our location in this beautiful rural environment, is an ideal base for exploring the area, whether holidaying or house-hunting.
Within an hour's radius you can access the Atlantic Coast, Futuroscope, Poitiers and Puy du Fou.
Within half an hour you can reach the cities of Niort, Parthenay, the beautiful 'Green Venice' of the Marias Poitevin, Vouvant and the Mervent Forest,
