Really nice church at the top of a hill, small hike up a hill to find it. Well worth the view and really quiet. Very hidden away.

Absolutely worth the visit for a piece of history and stunning views. Both children and adults will love it. Mind you it can get a bit windy there, but other than that, it's also great for a family picnic.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
