PROPERTY DETAILS
There are many places to visit in the region - Limoges and Poitiers offer excellent shopping and Futuroscope really is a must for all ages; a little further afield the beaches of La Rochelle and the Isle du RĂ© (1.5 hours) are well worth a visit. There are weekly markets in most of the surrounding towns and villages offering their regional gastronomic delights. Activities such as kayaking and water-sports on the river Vienne, numerous chateaux and wine tours. The Haute-Vienne has vast expanses of chestnut forests and wildlife and is ideal for anyone who enjoys walking, fishing, cycling or bird watching. The area is renowned for its beautiful lakes, some with manmade beaches offering safe swimming and water sports, sailing and woodland marked trails.
The cottage has now been modified to offer comfortable accommodation for 8 people comprising a small entrance vestibule, large fully equipped kitchen/dining room including gas cooker, dishwasher, refrigerator, wood burning cuisiniere, sitting room (sejour) with television/video. Large family bedroom with vanity basin; a cot and high chair are provided on request, shower room with washing machine and separate toilet.

All linen and towels provided, also inclusive of electricity and logs. NB.: bedroom 3 is accessed through the double bedroom. There is only 1 toilet facility. The cottage is part of a working sheep farm and occupants must expect some light farm traffic - tractors and the occasional delivery lorry etc. Sorry no pets allowed. Guests are asked not to smoke.
