You can do as little or as much as you choose...

The choice is all yours... stay and enjoy the rhythms and pace of life at Manoir de Trebuchon, take as long or short a walk as you choose, cycle amongst the myriad of tracks, disused railway lines and river tracks as you fancy.  Just a few of the many activities should you choose ....

Kayaking is great fun -  starting from the local village of Nalliers, stop along the way if choose and perhaps take a picnic with you..

Nature watching - you dont need to move from our balcony - the wildlife comes to you...

Local markets and brocantes - these are in abundance in the local area and a great source of French life.

Horse riding - I am a great fan with my own horse staying at Manoir de Trebuchon for the summer months - the riding is absolutely superb and some of the best I have ever know.   You will find a warm welcome from the local riding school just 2kms away which caters for both the novice and more experience riders.   Parents can lead their children along safe woodland rides and tracks.

Fishing by licence is available on all the local rivers.

'The Beach'....  a man made area on the River Gartempe, you can either float past here on your kayak, cycle or even walk here.  A great setting on the edge of the woods with picnic table and bbq areas scattered around, a natural play area for children, paddling, swimming and small restaurant and evening bar..

If beautiful architecture, villages and towns is more your flavour - there are so so many places to visit ....

Not forgetting beautiful Chateaux to visit, museums, theme parks, nature parks, the ancient town of Poiters and a myriad of choices.
