The Aquitaine / Dordogne / Dordogne region
There is a wealth of things to do in the countryside of the Limousin, it is a perfect area for walking, and some good walks can be had directly from ‘La Retreat’. You can also go horse riding and fishing locally, both carp fishing and coarse fishing are available.
Bird watchers will enjoy watching the wealth of birds in the area and it is lovely to watch the buzzards circling on the thermals. We are under the migratory paths and during spring and autumn, migrating birds can easily be seen, including huge flocks of storks. There are several beautiful villages in easy reach and the historic town of Limoges with it's history of porcelain manufacture.
We are in a beautiful position for people with a passion for painting and drawing, with lovely views without leaving your terrace.

La Porcherie is a well appointed gite ideal for a couple wanting a relaxed holiday. Set in spacious grounds with views of the countryside together with a swimming pool and unique bar. Though in a rural hamlet, St Yriex la Perch is only 10 minutes away by car and has a good range of supermarkets, shops and restaurants. Limoges is only 35minutes by car. Jan & Keith are very welcoming hosts, intent on making your stay comfortable, relaxing and enjoyable. La Porcherie is very good value. - Brian & Jean Moore |
