maps of our local area, with walks and cycle rides we have
been on marked out. Great after a day out or early in the

pain au chocolat from the Boulangerie next door, delicious! Alternatively, spend a delightful day at the Chateau at Azay le Ferron, only 3 minutes from us by car, or an enjoyable walk.
