The Area
|
|
View from Front of Farmhouse
|
Las Mouliéras is a traditional 200-year old Limousin farmhouse set in 16 acres of its own
land in beautiful rural countryside with its own pond surrounded by forests,
lakes and stunning unspoiled scenery ideal for walking, cycling, horse-riding,
fishing, watersports, bird-watching, photography or painting.
We are situated within a short distance of the village of La Croisille sur Briance
with all amenities in the south Haute Vienne, just 20 minutes from Limoges, Limoges Airport, Rail and Autoroute links.
|
|
View from Behind the Farmhouse
|
Haute Vienne in the Limousin is the least industrialised region of France. The area is
renowned for its tranquil, undisturbed, open, rural countryside. It boasts 8 major Lakes, 26 Chateaux, 2 Theme
Parks, many museums, woodland and Heritage trails, pretty unspoiled villages, markets and festivals.
Las Mouliéras is within a nature conservation zone and supports a wide and varied wildlife including deer,
wild boar, red squirrels, lizards, rare butterflies, and birds of prey.

The Terrace Area
 The
Pond |
Lac de Vassiviere, only 30 minutes from the farm, is a 1000-hectare lake and provides a
host of water sports including swimming, water-skiing, windsurfing, sailing, etc. A Sculpture Park and modern Art Gallery is situated on an island in the centre of the lake and cruises operate throughout the summer across the lake. With cafes, restaurants, picnic areas, together with many children's facilities and adventure playgrounds, the area has something to offer everyone.
Attractive Limoges, the capital of the Limousin, is a 2000-year old city with plenty to see and experience.
Most famous for its Ceramic and Porcelain works, Lalique being the most well-known perhaps. Limoges has a marvellous network of medieval streets lined with unusual art and clothes shops, cafes and fine restaurants.
Additionally, the panoramic views from Monts de Blond, the many ancient sacrificial stones from Neolithic and
Gallo-Roman times, plus waterfalls and caves, are all well worth a visit.
|
|
The Pond
|
Overall, the area provides a perfect
setting for a summer holiday - a chance to unwind, take in the breathtaking scenery, tone those body muscles, or
perhaps finish that book, develop your watercolour skills, etc. With so much on your doorstep, you will feel refreshed and
relaxed as you breathe in the fresh air.
