Former sub-prefecture of Saintonge, Saint-Jean-d'Angély spreads its canal-tiled roofs around the royal abbey, on the Saint James' way listed by UNESCO. The shopping streets and the market halls enliven a peaceful daily life.
On the outskirts of town, the landscape alternates between rolling hills, bocage and vineyards of the Charentais country. Longhouses and farmhouse complexes in limestone offer beams, a fireplace, a barn and outbuildings, with a garden, orchard and large quiet grounds.
The markets of the Saintonge area, the proximity of the Aulnay forest and walks along the Boutonne create a lovely lifestyle. Rochefort, La Rochelle and the ocean remain accessible for sea-salt weekends and cultural outings.
