Pougues-Les-Eaux: Holiday apartments and holiday homes
The history of Pougues-les-Eaux is particularly tangible in Parc Saint Léger: the park was once the centre of the town’s thermal station, which operated from 1568 to 1971. Today, it provides space for walks and relaxation, with shady, flower-lined paths. A contemporary work of art by Xavier Veilhan floats on the pond.
For visitors wishing to rent a holiday apartment in Pougues-les-Eaux, the town itself, with its historic and scenic attractions, is just as important as the accommodation.
Culture and history
The historic heritage includes the Pavillon des Sources Saint-Léon et Saint-Léger, built between 1905 and 1907. It stands on the site of an earlier drinking hall, built around 1900, where spa guests were offered water from the Saint-Léger and Saint-Léon springs.
In the eastern part of the thermal park is Le Splendid, a permanent work of art in the form of a playground. The historic Promenoir once housed small shops, including a confectionery that sold sweets and barley sugar made with water from Pougues-les-Eaux.
Nature and trails
Bellevue offers opportunities for walking, relaxing, playing, as well as health training and wellbeing. The site has an educational trail highlighting Bellevue’s various flower species, and from there, the view extends across the surrounding landscape.
The Circuit de la Goutte d'Eau takes visitors on a walk with six stages to Pougues-les-Eaux’s well-known sites. The town’s lake is also a notable attraction: a small bridge leads to an island there. The Allée des Soupirs is lined with poplar trees.
