Our bungalow is in the peaceful hamlet of La Valade surrounded by beautiful countryside and stunning beaches - find out how you can share the experience.
The white storks are always a beautiful sight at this time of year and a walk down the footpath at Saujon enabled us to see the stork on the nest feeding the young.
It has been a lovely week here, very warm and sunny but there has been no real rain for 3 months according to the locals so things are looking very dry. There has also been a ferocious wind this week which made cycling back from Talmont a real struggle. La Tremblade is always a favourite excursion and we enjoyed the oysters as you can see!
