Nature and surroundings
We live in the Brenne Nature Reserve 'home to a thousand lakes', loved by many for the wildlife, flowers, fauna. Known for the many birds that live permanently or migrate to the region, its rich in history dating back to the middle-ages when Benedictine monks built monastries and created the fishing lakes (smoked carp still being produced locally) and perfect for cycling, walking or simply being.
