This small town is just on the edge of the Forêt d'Orient national park, and as its well away from the more obviously touristic town, the atmosphere here feels incredibly laid back and sleepy.

For travellers though, it means that you can get cheaper fuel and not expect to queue too long in the well-stocked supermarket (we were amazed at how horribly slow many supermarket check-outs were even out of peak shopping times).
