La belle FRANCE is the heart of Europe. Her landscape, architecture, culture and history are beyond compare. It is a world of light and colour and space.  A world of contrasts; the ancient and the modern reflected in a cultural life enjoyed at leisure.

This unique recipe of history and modern development can be tasted and fully appreciated in the Poitou-Charentes region. Here in rural western France the architectural wealth of centuries 'salsas' alongside the ultra-modern technology in a richly blended lifestyle. Within this diverse region, at the very heart of the Poitou-Charentes, in the department of the Vienne lies Civray.

On the banks of the Charente river, this historical market town, prosperous for centuries, is today a lively commercial centre abounding with gardens, fountains and the buzz of café culture.  Civray, a treasured place, where time honoured hospitality is part of the heritage enjoyed by residents and visitors.  Here is the good life, the relaxed ease which delights in beauty and the joy of living, where each moment is savoured and enjoyed with the senses. This is style, Civray style!
