AROUND THE LOGIS
Come and discover a remarkable region, where authenticity and disconnection are the key words.
Between countryside and ocean at Saint Romain de Benet
5 km from Saujon, equidistant from Royan and Saintes, you’ll find yourself in Saint-Romain-de-Benet, in the heart of the Saintonge countryside, where stones and streams tell the story of a place steeped in serenity.
Between the mouth of the Gironde estuary and the Atlantic coast, a wild seaside atmosphere emerges, combining the scent of pine trees, fine sandy beaches, small coves and a feeling of being at the end of the world.
A VILLAGE ON AN ANCIENT ROMAN ROAD
Equidistant from Saintes and Royan, Saint Romain de Benet is hidden behind the woods, but its church’s original roof is a real eye-catcher. Surrounded by forests, fields and vineyards, its inhabitants are blessed (“Benet” comes from the Latin benedictus) for the peace and quiet their village offers.
A lovely visit on foot, bike or horseback to discover the Pirelonge tower, the listed church and the huacayas alpaca farm for a nature vacation.
Its listed church
The church owes its originality and interest to the 2 domes that give its roof a false oriental air.
The Olosa private garden
“The garden where we linger” on the Japanese space, the Koi pond, the maple collection, the Chinese space…
The Pirelonge tower
Probably a Gallo-Roman funerary monument (one of the best preserved in Charente-Maritime)
The Alpaguettes farm
Discover a huacayas alpaca farm in the heart of the Pays Royannais. The estate is also home to “Croix de St-André” donkeys and “Brahma Perdrix Maillée Dorée” hens.
