Angouleme
With a labyrinth of narrow streets, wonderfully preserved ancient buildings and excellent views from the castle ramparts, Angouleme is one of those places you just like to stroll around simply to discover what’s at the next turn. Go to the upper town and walk around the fortifications to admire some stunning views and make sure you visit the Cathédrale St Pierre with its impressive façade.
If you are feeling sporty the Base Nautique Eric Tabarly offers not only canoeing and sailing but also a supervised area where children can play or swim in the water.
