Holiday rentals in Limousin
Limousin can be found just 350 kilometres south of Paris, in the real heartland of France. The terrain is varied and takes in the foothills of the Central Massif, as well as acres of purple moorland and forested mountains. The region is also known as the ‘land of a thousand lakes’ and for good reason; crystal clear waters run throughout Limousin in the form or beautiful lakes, rivers and little streams. Taking a villa in Limousin is becoming increasingly easy to find as people start to discover this ‘untapped’ part of France. A great place to start looking for your apartment or villa in Limousin is in the capital, Limoges. The city itself is fascinating (you can discover the secrets of its famous pottery), but it also acts as a great base for exploring further afield. Alternatively, your holiday property or villa in Limousin can be found in the unspoilt countryside – gites, converted mills and farmhouses are all options.
