1 review of Saint-Simon

A Barge Town of Excellence

This quintessential barge village lies on the banks of the Charente River, just where it begins to widen before joining the Atlantic. Saint-Simon is known for connecting the two sides of the river. This is a place where the barge, a type of boat going from shore to shore, is omnipresent. It's a reflection of the courtesy and kindness of its people. It's a village in the middle of the field with a special charm. Its narrow streets convey a quiet and tranquility hard to find today. At the pier, you can see some river tour boats that stop here for several days to get a good taste of Poitou-Charentes.
