Great Friday morning market a definite on the to-do list for the week!
Lunch at the Cafê du Boulevard, the coffee shops, pizzeria or the more upmarket restaurants.
From the historic churches, market, silver mines, annual Jazz festival and cultural events to the charming guided walks around the town; Melle is a hub of activity if you look for it!
We love the Festival de Melle, the Jazz Festival in Summer and the regular spectacular festivals held over the festive seasons.

Spend a day exploring this spectacular island . Have lunch at La Flotte, (we love to lunch at "Georges" right on the marina but pretty much everything is good!) then spend the afternoon strolling and shopping in St Martin de Ré.

Spectacular market on Friday mornings and the weekend.
If driving, I recommend you park at the Ecran parking next to the Aquarium.
The Aquarium is world class and highly recommended especially if you have children with you.
Wander round this historic Port City, lunch at one of the many restaurants. Seafood at André's, or any of the varied restaurants and tavernas, then an afternoon at the magnificent aquarium or stroll the beautiful town for some great shopping, wonderful restaurants.
You can even take a sunset dinner cruise to end the day!

Fabulous restaurant behind the Donjon in Niort.

City/town information
We love Niort!
Saturday morning at the fabulous market at les Halles, then a lunch at one of the great restaurants overlooking the green park in the centre, or at Les Planches (our favourite!) on the river.
Make sure you book as it's busy!
There is plenty to see. The Donjon, the new renovated arts centre on the river, the cobblestone back lanes and shops.
Spend the morning in Niort and head back to Juillé via the Marais Poitevin and make a day of it?

The journey to Cognac is 45 minutes of beauty.
Winding roads through spectacular vineyards and ancient villages.
We love to visit regularly. It can be busy when the Cognac Blues Festival is on, but this just makes the place even more interesting in our minds. Impromtu performances by some of the festival musicians make a visit very special.
Lunch at Creperie L'Olympia, or for a more upmarket experience try La Courtine on the Charente river, L'Atelier du Quais or any number of great eateries! A cocktail at Luciole Bar before eating at one of the riverside restaurants?
A tour around the one of the distilleries is also highly recommended. Hennessy have a tour that includes a (short) boat trip!
