Peaceful location & rolling hills

The cottage has stunning views,is surrounded by gorgeous flower pots and is located only about six kilometers north to the river Dordogne.If you enjoy the countryside, you like a bit of quite and a taste of culture and you don't look for fancy accomodation, this is the place for you.The couple that they own it, are very friendly and knowledgeable and the accomodation is rustic,clean and you get all the basics.There is a seperate entrance downstairs where the kitchen/dining area is, which was handy for us to use when we were coming in with heavy bags as the staicasse from the bedroom to the kitchen is a bit small and you have to watch yourself.(not ideal for people with mobility problems).There is a v.small pool which is great to cool down on a hot afternoon or late in the evening looking at the stars! About an hours drive is the lovely old town of Brive where is plenty to see & there is the' festival de la Vezere' between the 8th/7-end of August with recitals,opera,choirs,spectacles.We really enjoyed it last year and you can find info from the local T.Inf.office.There isnt any night life in the village of Curemonte and a car is a must.Beaulieu-sur-Dordogne is a nice lively village about 30 min away & if you are into sports, there is a start point for doing cayak at Bretenoux.
