our region Beauvais is a comfortable holiday home in the south of the rural Loire Valley, on the fringes of the Brenne wetlands national park. It is available to rent all year round and offers the opportunity to explore a beautiful area rich both in history and culture and in wildlife. Owned by a family - it was formerly a family home - it is equipped beyond the average 'holiday house for rent' in France. Things to do on
your holiday: If you want to relax on your holiday then you will not find a more tranquil and idyllic region in France than the Val de Loire: the lush 'Garden of France'. But if it's activities you're after, there's loads to do... With families:
Places to visit:
Wildlife:
Birdwatching: The house is on the edge of the Brenne National Park, an area of small lakes and grazing land, which is an important stopover for migratory birds. Over 260 species have been observed in the Brenne, with over 150 species nesting in the area. There are a number of hides with one specially for observing the rare European Pond Tortoise. At the beginning of May the house itself is surrounded by nightingales - magical! Markets!
Outdoor activities:
Seasonal Events: As the week is marked out by the daily market - in a different town or village every day, so the year has its seasonal events, often in this area agriculture-based, such as the Foire au Laine (Wool Fair) in July, the Foire aux Melons (Melon Fair) in August and the Fetes du Vin in the Autumn. In the house you will find a folder packed with information about these and dozens of other events, from the Fete des Andouillettes - where one goes to ride on the dodgems and eat offal sausages, to the Feast of the Assumption when everyday life stops for some sort of fete, barbecue or bric-a-brac sale to celebrate the ascension to heaven of the Virgin Mary - well, you can go to church as well!
