Directions
When coming from the ports along the northern French coast, our preferred route is to follow the signs for Rennes, then Nantes, and finally Bordeaux. By bypassing all the towns along the way, you will eventually reach the A10. Take exit 34 at St. Jean d'Angely, and continue bypassing the town on the D939 in the direction of Angouleme. Stay on the D939 until you reach the charming village of Siecq. Once in the village center, turn left at the small crossroads next to the bar, and continue for 1 kilometer, passing the sign that says "Coucoussac." Follow the road, keeping to the left, until you reach Rue de Bellevue. After 50 meters, you will notice a large arch in a tall stone wall - and there you have it! You have arrived. If you are approaching from any other direction, find the D939 (the main route between La Rochelle and Angouleme), and then locate Siecq, which is situated between Matha and Rouillac. From Siecq, simply follow the directions mentioned above.
