| At
UTLT you have the choice to chill out on
site, or take the time to explore further afield. It's a great
stop-off point for the south, but there's much to see and
do locally.
Some
important local towns within easy reach are: Angouleme,
Aubeterre, Brantome, Brigueuil, Chazzelles, Cognac, Confolens,
Jarnac, La Rochefoucauld, La Rochelle, Limoges, Montbron,
Poitiers, Rouillac, Royan, Sarlat, Tusson, Villebois-Lavalette.
Still
relatively unknown, the Charente has tourist
attractions but without the crowds to spoil them. Rural ways
of life are predominant outside the towns and one can often
feel as if time itself has stood still. People and businesses
are welcoming and friendly, and the pace of life manageable
and relaxed!

Enjoying
its own micro climate, the weather in the Charente
can be changeable, but it's generally warmer and more stable
than the UK climate for instance. |
