The French village of Vouvant
The village of Vouvant the castle keep ![]() The village of Vouvant
Vouvant is one of the prettiest villages in France it is in the vendee region a few miles from Fontenay. We found it quite by chance just driving around i saw a sign in English which said the most beautiful village in France. We had to turn off and have a look,the village is beside a river which flows round both sides and forms a natural defence moat. There is some of the castle keep left standing see picture and some of the walls. It was June 2008 when we visited a very hot day 90f but like a lot of rural france the village was deserted people only come back at the weekends. It was nice to have the place to ourselves there a very old church some interesting little streets free parking. There are a few shops, bars and a restaurant or two
