Home description
Log cabin set in 8 acres of fields and woods, fully equipped for your self catering needs (including complimentary tea and coffee), with all towels and linen provided, and if you stay two weeks or more a linen change each week. Large heated swimming pool. This is one of four log cabins in the park.
La Coterie Lodges is situated at the edge of a quiet hamlet, but just 20 minutes from Gueret, the capital of La Creuse, or 30 minutes from Aubusson, Limousins centre for tapestry. Our setting is in the countryside, but we are only 4km from the N145, the main east/west route through France, enabling easy access to your daily destinations, and total peace and quiet, if you prefer to spend the day by the pool.
Our lodges are ideally located for exploring market villages, chateaux, and the lakes, which also have beaches and water sports in the summer months, or visit the mysterious Rocks of Jaumatres which has been a great hit wth previous guests, particularly the tree walking activity in the park which adults and kids alike have enjoyed. Other great hits have been the Giant Maze in Gueret which also has plenty of activities, and Vulcania situated in the Volcanoes of the Puy Dome, which although comparitively a long drive, has been well worth a days visit.
Spend the day strolling around the country lanes or visiting one of the local towns, then return for a late afternoon swim in our large pool (which also has a sliding enclosure which means you can swim even in rain) Relax with sundowners on your private terrace and an evening meal listening to the owls and watching the moon rise over your lodge, or try one of the fantastic restaurants in the area.

Guestbook
Exceptionally well equipped self catering accommodation, we have never stayed anywhere else in France, England or Wales which is so well equipped with basics & extras. We have thoroughly enjoyed our week in this unspoilt part of France. Thank you. The Oliver Family, 9th -16th August 2008
Our stay was made more enjoyable due to the welcoming manner of you both which continued throughout our two week stay. Sightseeing info was fabulous and the facilities on site amazing (no dirty washing to tackle when we get home - yippee!). Everything you need to keep everyone happy. Thank you very much. Joanne, Mark, Stephen and Harry August 2007
The service you provide was brilliant - everything we asked for and some things we didn't. The information booklet was excellent and used every day. The log cabins were lovely and clean and well presented, and washing and drying facilities excellent. The tractor was a great touch - loved by adults and children. Thanks for a great stay. Nikki, Tony, Joshua, Frankie and Shane August 2007
