Nestled in a small unspoilt valley furrowed in a plateau that dominates the Aisne Valley, in the centre of a town with its abbey church standing on the edge of a stream, facing the plains. Bordered by wooded hills with a great many small streams running through, this pleasant village, one of the most beautiful in the area, has managed to preserve several architectural treasures.
A small flower-filled town on land overflowing with history, a former county full of a heritage that still shelters numerous sites just waiting to be explored, character houses and residences, mills, a wash-house, a former hospice and convent as well as castles, some even in ruins. Just a few dozen miles from several large towns.

The site is practical and accessible, and the surroundings are picturesque and pleasant.
