A gem of a château in the wilds of Limousin with kind and thoughtful owners who are thoroughly immersed in this tranquil area

Natural textures and neutral colours make these family homes a delight to live in – while the Haut Vienne Sud is wonderfully unspoilt

Bring family and friends to this comfortable old place and bask in ancient timber and stone, originality, style and historic discoveries
