After eight weeks of camping in Abrest (a small village just outside Vichy) we hit the road again last Wednesday to spend a few days in Cindré (another small French village in Auvergne) before driving south west to Monbazillac in Aquitaine.
Cindré has just over 300 inhabitants, a restaurant (with post office), a hotel and a church. It’s the kind of place one usually drives through en route to somewhere larger and more ‘interesting’, but we found this quiet, remote village an ideal place to pause and recharge our batteries along the way, spending a couple of nights with a lovely CouchSurfing host and his family, sharing good food, going for walks and playing with the children.
