Explore the idyllic countryside north-east of La Rochelle
This is a single-centre holiday based at Le Moulin du Chemin, a wonderful maison d’hôte hidden in a leafy valley in deepest rural France. Established by the present proprietors in 1993, the restored mill house dating from before 1650 is remote, undiscovered and yet easily accessible. The idyllic region is known as le Pays de Gâtine and encompasses hundreds of miles of peaceful lanes, tracks and paths meandering among meadows, pastures, woods and orchards criss-crossed with clear streams and ancient hedgerows, rich in wildflowers butterflies, birds and other fauna – a veritable rural paradise. Routes can be tailored to your ability. The price of this tour includes 5 days' walking and cycling, 6 nights' fully inclusive, including 6 breakfasts and 5 evening meals. There's also welcome introduction, bike hire, a detailed booklet, station transfers, fully French-integrated British hosts, information and advice if required and support throughout your holiday, including Belle France 24-hour support.
