Visit Cafe le Pont de la Pierre.
The Café is located in the peaceful landscaped gardens alongside the River Vincou, away from the bustle and traffic of the town centre. Whilst sitting on the terrace on the banks of the river, one can enjoy the superb views of the old town of Bellac and the thirteenth Century bridge, the Pont de la Pierre.
