The towns of Thiviers and La Coquille (There is an excellent English speaking doctor in La Coquille) are each 15 minutes away and Limoges with access to low cost flights is 40 minutes distant.. Perigueux which has both historic and modern attractions can be reached in about 35 minutes.

This stone built property has been sympathetically restored to a very high standard including a new roof and offers up to date comfort.
