The Hotel Spa Chais Monnet & Spa is ideal for a romantic stay in Charente-Maritime. Also, the city of Cognac is not short on cultural, sporting or culinary activities.
You probably know the name of the department of Charente, in the west of France, which is part of the region of Nouvelle-Aquitaine. But when you are asked to name a town associated with this territory or, even worse, to locate this department on the map of France, you immediately panic. Sometimes you even confuse it with the Charente-Maritime, which is just next door.
So yes we agree with you, it is not the most famous place in France, the most touristic but believe us, spending your holidays or weekends far from the crowd, in a remote place of France, is more than beneficial! The whole team at Unique Hôtel Spa is ready to prove to you that you will have a wonderful stay in the Charente. Let’s get started!
Now that you have decided to go to the Charente, chosen your spa hotel and your room or suite, it is time to move on to the next phase. Here you are at the most fun stage of organising a trip: choosing the activities! But it may be that after a lot of research on websites, in magazines, in paper guides, you are still not convinced. Don’t worry, you will find what you need. The editors of Unique Hôtel Spa know every corner of this beautiful French territory. And today, you’re in luck, we’re ready to reveal them to you. Between the visit of the city of Cognac, Angoulême, vineyards, culture and heritage, walks and hikes, you are not going to get bored.
Once you’ve told your partner that you’re taking him or her to discover the riches of the Charente for a few days or a weekend, it’s time to start thinking about the activities you’ll be able to do. The search may be rather complex due to a lack of time or simply because you have not yet managed to find the original activity that will please your other half. Don’t worry, you’re bound to find something that suits you. The editors of Unique Hotel Spa are never short of ideas. Here are a few ideas that we have found just for you.
Of course, if you are visiting this part of France, Cognac is the place to be. You have already heard the name of this town at least once. It is quite normal, it is known all over the world thanks to its brandy. To surprise your wife or husband, take a tour of the Cognac vineyards in a 2CV. Postcard landscapes on the vineyards and encounters will punctuate your ride. You will drive along the roads of the great Champagne region, discover the Château de Garde épée, the Château de Bourg-Charente, the Abbaye de Bassac, visit the Baume de Bouteville factory and learn the secrets of the Cognac distillery.
Are you an early riser? For a unique experience, book a hot air balloon flight over Cognac, the Lakes of Haute-Charente or Angoulême. You will discover the Charente in a different way and believe us, you won’t be disappointed.
After this unusual activity, go for a walk around the lakes of Charente. Amongst them, we recommend Lake Guizengeard, with its crystal blue water and Lake Lavaud.
