This newly refurbished 2 bedroomed cottage, sits in a quiet hamlet in the Haute Vienne, about 45 minutes from Limoges airport. It has two bedrooms, a bathroom, lounge/diner and fully appointed kitchen. Outside there is a patio and a large private garden. A perfect home away from home.
We have owned our house in La Borderie since 2010, and now we can share this beautiful area of France with you, when you stay in our cottage.
Treena Turner purchased this cottage in 2012
This is the place to get away from the stresses and strains of life-a place to relax and unwind. Set in a small beautiful hamlet, with rolling countryside all around, but still close enough to shops and other activities when you want them.
Staying here will really take you away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
We found the cottage very well maintained, with good decoration and in pleasant and peaceful surroundings, with a nice orchard as part of the garden, which also included a washing line.
The cottage is surrounded by lawn and greenery.
The location of the cottage is a beautiful area near St Mathieu, convenient for petrol and shopping at the supermarket.
We highly recommend this accommodation, and we wish to return there next year. The owners are very helpful if you have a personal requirement.

We spent a delightful week at Treena and Andy's holiday house in August. We knew the area but had been disappointed with our accommodation the previous year but this certainly made up for it. Our hosts were so welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. We have two young children and so our holiday consists of days out to the nearby lakes at Saint Estephe and Videx. The house is perfectly situated for both and is the perfect home from home with everything you need to have a very comfortable and relaxing break. Immaculately presented and with a fantastic large garden for the children to play. We enjoy simple pleasures and this little hamlet nestled in the Dordogne is simply beautiful. We've spent three times this amount on accommodation in the past and have not been as happy. The house is only small but if like us you simply need a base from which to explore each day then look no further!
Coast/Beach:
Whilst we are about 2 hours away from the coast, there are two leisure lakes which are a short drive away-Saint Mathieu and St Estephe -both have sandy beaches and are a lovely place for a stroll or to just watch the world go by.
Travel:
The property is about 45 minutes drive from Limoges airport which is served by a large number of UK airports, and is also easy to access from Calais (7 hours), Caen (5.5 hours) or Le Havre (6 hours)
Use of a car is essential due to the rural location.
There are a number of car hire firms operating from Limoges airport-especially useful for a short break.
Distances:
The town of Saint Mathieu is about 5 minutes drive away and this has a supermarket, bakeries, bar and restaurant. There are larger towns with more choice and amenities 25/30 minutes drive away.
The large local, and typically French market at Piegut Pluviers is about 15 minutes away, and is there every Wednesday-this is one not to be missed.
