THE REGION

The Charente is part of the Nouvelle Aquitaine region and is located in the southwest of France. The region is characterized by its rolling green landscapes. This lesser known pearl in France has no mass tourism despite the many assets that the region has to offer. The many medieval villages and towns determine the authentic character and are an ideal base for numerous excursions.

WEATHER

The Charente enjoys a maritime climate. This means that winters are mild and summers wonderfully warm without excessive heat. Ideal for a summer vacation.
