The rolling hills and steep river valleys of the department of Creuse are typical of the fringes of France's high altitude plateau known as the Massif Central. Winters here can be cold but in summer the weather is pleasantly sunny and warm, an ideal holiday destination for those who enjoy pre-mechanised rural France but prefer to avoid the intense heat found in the more popular south.
The River Creuse, winds peacefully through the sparsely populated countryside passing villages, and landscapes around Crozant that inspired 19th century artists including Monet.
