I didn't really know what to expect when I arrived in the Vienne, and even less so in Cieux, this little village in the heart of the Monts de Blond. But when I saw the "Village en Poésie" sign, my curiosity was piqued. So I stopped off at my village's natural CAMPSITE IN MY VILLAGE a peaceful, well-designed stopover for motorhomes. Settling in comfortably, I set off to discover this unique place where poetry is part of everyday life. The commune has even been awarded a label for its commitment: a poetry trail runs through the village, with poems displayed on desks, each telling a fragment of the village's soul.
I let myself be carried away by this unusual walk, passing by the town hall, the Sainte-Marguerite institute, the old railway station, the war memorial... and of course, the pond, peaceful and inviting to relax. Walkers will also be delighted with the megaliths circuit and the beech tree path - real breaths of fresh air through unspoilt nature. In July and August, the village's festivities committee brings the village to life with convivial events that add to the magic of the place.
What I remember most about Cieux is its gentle, almost timeless atmosphere, where shopkeepers have the accent of the terroir and the kindness of poets. A simple but authentic stopover, which I warmly recommend to all motorhome owners in search of peace and quiet and beautiful discoveries. Between the charm of CAMPING-CAR PARK and the hidden treasures of the village, I'm sure of one thing: I'll be back.
