We are looking for a house sitter for our pets while we are away in uk for at least 3 weeks.The house is all on one floor and their are 2 bedrooms and two Bathrooms We are in quite a warm area of Charente and has been exceptional this year.There is internet freely available. We live in a village which has a bakery, Bar/Restaurent, which also sells Tobacco, Newspapers sweets etc The Restaurent is also open for sunday Lunches The meals are quite good and reasonably priced.
There are beautiful Walks around the Village,down along the fields and other area,s Their are woods to walk in both near the village and in the local town of Ruffec which is only 6 Kilometre,s away. Their are good Restaurents in Ruffec too . Lots to explore in the Local towns too.
Angouleme is about 30 kilometre's from here and the hightown is well worth exploring. The local produce is good and in most Towns including Ruffec there is a Market Especially on a Saturday in Ruffec, it also has a cinema,and a large social centre called the Canopee where talks and plays are put on there. Also a swimming pool. It really is a beautiful region where Richard the lionheart travelled through on his Pilgrim route. It is full of lakes and Rivers and La Rochelle is close enough to spend a day there by the sea and bordeaux is two hours away by car or 40 minutes by train from Ruffec.Also vide greniers are still on(like car boots)
