LicquesWe found out about the village of Licques when we visited the
tourist office in Ardres
They told us about the river Hem valley and recommend several villages to visit.
Although we stay in the area a couple of times a year in the nearby town of Marquise. We did not know about this lovely valley 10 miles down the road. Our visit was in December on a cold Winter morning.Licques has several shops
two large quality furniture shops and cafe bars.Which is good for a smallish village in a
rural setting.
