Limousin Holiday Farmhouses

The Limousin countryside has a wealth of contrasting landscapes and is an ideal place to take a farmhouse holiday. Tourism has largely bypassed this French heartland well known for its many lakes - Lac Vassiviere is one of the largest in France. Here you can enjoy fishing, watersports and walking. Wolves roamed the Chabrieres Forest right up to the middle of the twentienth century - see them now at Les Loups de Chabrieres, Wolf Park. Despite its tranquility, Limousin has plenty to offer those seeking adventure - the adventure park at Aubazine for example has aerial routes and bungee jumping. And for culture, visit Limoges famous for its porcelain and Aubusson where the museum takes you through 600 years of carpet and tapestry making.
