How to Find Les Ruches French Cooking Holidays

Entering Sommières du Clain from the direction of Poitiers cross over the bridge and take the next right turn up a little lane called Rue de Lavaud. If you pass the boulangerie you have gone too far.

Drive for approximately 300 metres and turn left into the lane marked ‘Cimetière’. You will see a gate between two large fir trees… you have found Les Ruches French Cooking Holidays!
