Champdeniers Saint Denis – a peaceful hamlet
Champdeniers St Denis may have a big name, but it is, in fact, only a small hamlet. The tiny village, with just over 500 inhabitants, lies in the rural and beautiful Deux-Sèvres department of the Poitou-Charentes region in western France. Champdeniers St Denis makes a perfect retreat for those who wish to escape the stresses and strains of modern life, as its charmingly old fashioned peace and tranquillity are a balm to the soul.

Interesting features
Tiny it may be, but Champdeniers St Denis has some interesting features that will make you glad you took the time to discover this little known beauty spot. There is a lovely church, Notre Dame, which has a historic crypt, and a 16th century tower. The architecture of parts of the village is of interest too, especially in the Grand Rue, where building no. 9 is sure to attract the attention.

Champdeniers Saint Denis has limited facilities
Although Champdeniers has some basic amenities, such as a post office, it is small, so it is likely that you will want to get out and about to access the facilities offered by larger towns at least every now and then. Towns with plenty of shops, supermarkets, restaurants and suchlike include Parthenay, Fontenay le Comte and the departmental capital of Niort.

Out and about
The lovely countryside around the hamlet is ideal for outdoor pursuits such as walking, cycling and horse-riding. There are rivers and lakes in the area, and these often have facilities for swimming, fishing and water sports.
