Maison Taupe is in Les Tuilieres, a rural hamlet, just outside Oradour-sur-Vayres, and only a few minutes from Rochechouart, St Mathieu, St Junien and Chalus in the Haute Vienne. It lies to the south west of Limoges and the A20, one of the main routes through to the south of France, Andorra, Spain and Portugal.
The accommodation is within our farmhouse. We have kept many of the fine features which show the great craftsmanship of day’s gone by.
The house is set in two and a half acres of land, mostly laid out to garden, this also includes our pool for you, as guests, to enjoy.
We, the owners, Peter and Barbara, aim to make your stay with us as comfortable, relaxing and memorable as possible.
Whether you are holidaying or just passing through this is an ideal base. The Limousin is one of the last remaining areas of unspoiled natural beauty in France.
Whatever you choose to do on your holiday, MAISON TAUPE is a fantastic place to end your day with a great home cooked meal using fresh home grown produce with a few glasses of wine, and then you relax in the garden and watch the sunset perfect!
