Limousin-Poitou-Charente

Gabarre at Beaulieu

Both the Limousin and Poitou-Charente used to be Régions in their own right before 2016 but following the reorganisation of that year they were amalgamated with Aquitaine and became part ofNouvelle-Aquitaine.

There is much to see including the world famous multimedia theme park of Futuroscope and lots of good beaches near La Rochelle & Île de Ré and the Île de Oleron.

Saintes

Roman Arena at Saintes

In the south the towns of Saintes, Cognac and Angoulême while in the old Limousin the homes of decorated porcelain Limoges and lace Tulle must not be missed.

The River Dordogne features here too - check out my app Dordogne’s Best and try the driving itinerary!
