This old stone house enjoys fabulous views over the Creuse Valley and overlooks the village ‘Tree of Liberty’, a greater lime tree planted in 1791 to commemorate the French revolution, and it is a joy to watch it change colour with the seasons. It is under this ancient tree that the village holds its celebrations.
The property is the last house in the village in a peaceful location at the end of a small no-through lane, and is a 10 min walk from the lake and the Creuse river. There are many countryside walks right on our doorstep, ideal for exploring the area and seeing its wildlife, including red squirrels, pine martens, buzzards, deer and the elusive but impressive hoopae bird.
The village is at the heart of the beautiful and unspoilt ‘Trois Lacs’ region of the Creuse, ideal for walking, cycling, canoeing, fishing and horseriding. It is 4km from the pretty riverside village of La Celle Dunoise (boulangerie, auberge, restaurant, school, canoeing & horseriding centres) and from the lakeside beach at Le Bourg D’Hem.
This is truly an idyllic haven in a gorgeous countryside setting. The Limousin is known as the ‘Lake District’ of France, and combined with the widespread ancient deciduous woodland offers a beautiful and unspoilt landscape, where you can truly live the French dream.
