About 10 min drive. Nice for walking around it,which will take about 1 hour. There is a self service boat at the end of the lake,which you will have to use to get across to continue the walk. Has got a lovely snack bar and beach although it gets rather busy in July and August. You might want to consider Lac de haute Charente instead than.
