Further remarks
If you don’t know the area it is well worth the effort to discover. If you have been already - then it speaks for itself. Ripe for tourism but as yet unspoilt, our visitors are amazed at how much there is to do and see here - and yet you remain in a very traditional unique area of rural France.
New for 2021 we have a little auberge resteraunt in the village serving great meals at good prices. They also do vegetable boxes of seasonal vegetables starting at 15€.
