Activities: All children are welcome and there are lots of activities in the area (swimming/fishing/kayacking on the river, walking, bird watching, cycling, riding/trekking, tennis,) but teenagers looking for the bright lights will not find them very locally! Nearby there is horse riding 'Chatenet en Dognon', tennis in 'La Jonchère', swimming and pedal boat in surrounding lakes: 'Pont à l'Age', Ambazac, 'Saint Pardoux' . A visit to Limoges is essential. The capital of the Limousin region is famous for its fine and unique porcelain.

Not only is the Limousin famous for its nature, but also for the quality of its farm meat specialities: its chestnut pâtés and chestnut sausage. You will find all these specialities of local producers at the village of La Jonchère and in the markets. Not far away are also excellent little restaurants with reasonable prices.

Nature is waiting to be discovered for vacations full of charm in Les Monts d'Ambazac in Limousin.

The genuine countryside french way of life

Marta and Pedro Porto, Portugal
Review Submitted: September 16, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2007
Excellent. Nothing more than excellent for a bunch like us, a small family (parents and child) and two friends who likes to hike, ride a bike, stroll through dream villages (like Saint Leonard de Noblat), learn about history in nightmare villages (Oradour) and do some shopping in busy yet lazy towns (like Limoges, of course).
Although we loved being out, it was a pleasure come back home, where we could rest at a lovely garden deck, have a swim in the heated swimming pool and prepare a barbecue, while our child counted dozens of bike rides back and forward the road by the house (the only car came every week day by 9 o´clock, it was the mail man). Another pleasure was telling about the day to Mr. Hervais and, of course, preparing the next one (you shall always listen to M. Hervais tips).
Regarding the house. Just lovely for people who enjoy simplicity with a touch of country side living (and wifi connection). We often seated by the front door or delight ourselves with the the beautiful bedrooms window sights. We loved the first floor old wood pavement and the steep wood stairs.Two manageable problems, were the only bathroom and the lack of douche curtains.
We strongly recommend this house to anyone who appreciates the feeling of the real countryside and the genuine french way of life.

Review Submitted: July 4, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
5 of us stayed at Alains property for a week, the house is very clean, and more importantly very cool in the sun. Opposite the house is a swimming pool that is just the right tempreture (not too cold) and a garden terrace with a BBQ which are essential for lazying away the days. The nearby villages have a good selection of shops however a car is needed. We would recommend this.

Ambazac cottage

Review Submitted: August 5, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
This a "Ronseal" place - it does what it says on the tin. Myself, my wife and our two teenage kids have just returned from a couple of weeks at Alain's cottage. It's situated in a very quiet hamlet of about ten houses but there is a pool, which although is situated in Alain's place opposite, he was quite adament that we could use it whenever we wanted to, and there are also lakes to swim in nearby. This is definitely a place to come to relax and enjoy the scenery and there are many walks of varying difficulty to enjoy. Limoges is not far away as is the "martyred village" of Oradour. I would have no hesitation in recommending this to anyone wanting to get away from it all.
