Talmont-sur-Gironde & Montguyon

Across the bay from Meschers lies Talmont-sur-Gironde where we had a lovely walk around the 'presque-île' (peninsula), admiring the church on its headland.





Our reason for visiting the area came from a Christmas present from Tine: an overnight stay in a 'table d'hôte'. To be honest our stay was rather disappointing but we loved exploring a new area.

La Pierre Folle (the Mad Stone) just outside Montguyon...
...most of you know about our love of ancient rocks!
Montguyon has a magnificent old castle. We had to shelter in the car from a heavy hail storm...
...but we were rewarded by superb light for our photos.
