Neighborhood

About the neighborhood

We are practically next door to the town of Cognac, just a 5-minute drive from its center.
It's known for its Cognac houses (distilling takes place in winter), its walks along the Charente River (on foot, by bike, or by kayak) with its charming riverside cafes, and its music festivals (Blues Passions in early July, La Fête du Cognac in late July) as well as street art festivals (Coup de Chauffe in September).

We are located:

  • In the Charente Valley with its river ports (St. Simon, Cognac, Port d'Envaux),

  • 20 minutes from Saintes (city center with Gallo-Roman remains),

  • 30 minutes from Angoulême (comics festival and museum, Musiques Métisses festival),

  • 1 hour 10 minutes from La Rochelle (ports, beaches, Île de Ré, Francofolies music festival),

  • 1 hour from Royan (port, beaches, and Île d'Oléron), 2 hours from Poitiers (Futuroscope).

  • 1 hour 30 minutes from Bordeaux.
