Perfect for dining on the road. Very complete grocery store with local cheese and vegetables. A butcher's shop is next door.

View of Château de Verteuil

Highlight • Castle

Although you cannot visit this chateau (it is privately owned by the La Rochefoucauld family) it provides a wonderful backdrop to the village and is truly a sight to behold from the river.

beautiful town with amazing views to the castle. Good little restaurants (very busy in the evening - booking required!). Wednesday is a wood fired pizza van at the market and the local bar allows you to bring the pizza in.
