During the summer holidays, many motorhome drivers travel from the north to the south of France and even Europe. For motorhome owners who favor National Roads, Angoulême and its region are an ideal stopover.
On a camp site perfectly equipped to accommodate motorhomes or on service areas located in villages, Angoulême and the surrounding area have pleasant sites for resting. So set off to discover a region with many attractions. Close to the RN10 and the RN141, this area is a real crossroads between the Atlantic Ocean, the southwest, Limousin and Périgord.
The relaxing break in the heart of the Charentes will be an opportunity to take advantage of the freshness offered by the Touvre, magnificent river at the gates of Angoulême. You can also enjoy the Charente, than Francis 1er called it the most beautiful stream in the Kingdom.
The lovers of cultural heritage. will delight in their passage through white stone villages. The Romanesque churches come out of postcards, sometimes in the middle of the vineyards. Furthermore, the stopover can be an opportunity to discover the extraordinary know-how perpetuated by the winegrowers and distillers. You can visit the heart of the Cognac or Pineau des Charentes vineyards.
Wonderful spots are also recommended by van life enthusiasts. Along the Charente near a lock is one. There Braconne Forest is another, or even in one winegrower that welcomes visitors!
Finally, a detour via Angoulême is a must to visit the capital of comic strips. Here on the 9rd art is on every street corner: painted walls, museum, Terra aventura...
In short, motorhomes and vans are welcome for one night or more in the heart of the Charente!
