Poitou Charentes makes for a great destination for a villa holiday, being renowned for its good climate - ideal for outdoor activities. Take a river trip from Cognac or have a go on the velo-rail running between Confolens and Manon. The rivers offer kayaking, rafting and fishing whilst the coast is great for watersports, lazing on the beach and enjoying seaside restaurants with their seafood menus. Cycle the Thouet Valley, take in pretty Coulon in the Marais Poitevin or how about a guided tour of the silver mine in Melle - the choice is yours.
