Les Vielles Ecluses

- in the beautiful Department of the Vienne

- in the grounds of the ancient Chateau Touffou

- on the banks of the spectacular river Vienne

The view of the river (left) is stunning.

In the autumn, the "ecluses" (wier)
helps to make breakfast on the terrace
a truly ethereal experience.

The central heating ensures
that it is also comfortable

The nearby dainty mediaeval city of Chauvigny has
a street market, restaurants, cafes, bars, a castle and a cathedral.

Here, we relax at the creperie "la belle epoque"
beside the old castle.
