| Between
Brittany and the Loire valley lies "doulce France" , the valleys of
the Mayenne, the Sarthe and the Oudon, each with its own
distinctive charm. From either Chenillé-Changé or
from Châteauneuf-sur-Sarthe, the three rivers invite
you to make a gently-paced journey past picturesque little
towns, or abbeys and castles steeped in history. With its
honeyed stones and its slated roofs, Anjou is a garden
of enchantment. Don't miss stopping at Angers which preserves a colourful
and bustling old town underneath its castle walls. The
pleasures of this glorious region extend also to the
table, with rillettes, chicken and capons washed down
with wine or sparkling cider.
