The watch words here are calm, authenticity and escape.

Full of generosity, the Aube department overflows with small producers who will be happy to see you and show you what they can do.

Food lovers will be delighted by Champagne (25 km away), Chablis (30 km), mushrooms, cider, as well as the tasty Chaource cheese and, of course, snails.

If you love nature, go to the Lacs de la Forêt d'Orient ( Forêt d'Orient lakes) and see the wonders of birds and deer in a park covering 70,000 hectares.

40 km away is the town of Troyes

Towards Auxerre you can take a walk through Noyers sur Serein, judged to be one of France's most beautiful villages.
