Holiday Apartment in Lussac les Eglises, Limousin
Charming Apartment in 16th century Cottage
Riverside Location, 5 mins Walk from Village
Sleeps up to 4 (Studio)
|
|
This delightful studio apartment is situated on the lower floor of a beautiful 16th century cottage in Limousin, South West France. We are a five minute walk from Lussac les Eglises, a small village (with a bar/restaurant). We are just over one hour from Poitiers, which has a theme park called Futuroscope. We are around 45 minutes from Limoges with its porcelain factories and shops (and airport). The garden, which is shared by the owners, is very pretty with a stream running along the bottom. We have a freestanding plunge pool for cooling off in and a decked area for BBQ’s facing the stream. The house is ideal for a relaxed, country holiday, a place to read books and recharge your batteries. Alternatively, if you were thinking of moving to this area, it would make a great base from which to discover Limousin and find that special home of your own. We have our own home moving experiences to share if you like, and we know some English speaking estate agents in the area.
