Couhé, our local market town, is just 10 mins away and has two supermarkets, a large Intermarché and a smaller Carrefour Contact hidden behind the high street. The small Sunday market under the roof of Les Halles, the ancient market hall, is worth a visit for picking up fresh fruit and veg and that spit-roast chicken.

Parks & Nature

Even if you don’t think you’d be interested in a safari park full of primates, La Vallée des Singes (the valley of the monkeys) is a must-see for anyone staying in this area. Just 5 minutes drive from the gîte it’s a visitor attraction that never fails to delight our visitors, whatever their age.

Drinks & Nightlife

You can’t beat firing up the BBQ and eating under the vines on our terrace at Gîte La Grange. As the sun goes down on a long day’s sightseeing unwind with a glass of something chilled and take in the peace and quiet of Le Petit Cormy.
