Our Self-Catering House in St Germain les Belles.....
Beautifully-renovated (with wheelchair access), large holiday rental, in a rural Limousin village. Just a short stroll from local shops, the swimming lake, sandy beach and winding countryside lanes. Perfect for large groups and families - come and get away from it all!
The House...
This unique self-catering holiday house is situated in the rural, Limousin region of central France - 'the land of a thousand lakes'.
The house has been entirely renovated and furnished to a high standard and we think that it has something really special to offer our guests. You'll love the contemporary, uncluttered feel of the interior, which is tastefully furnished to a high standard, with many original features and wood flooring throughout.
Guests can choose from 6 lovely bedrooms, 5 of which have private shower / bathrooms. Furthermore, one of the ground-floor bedrooms / bathroom is accessible to wheelchair users. There is also a large private garden and dining terrace (complete with patio furniture and dining table), with views out onto open countryside and buttercup meadows.
Facilities and why our house is special…
· Certain items of furniture have been hand-crafted by a local business, using sustainable wood sourced from their own forest.
· We also only use (and provide) environmentally-friendly cleaning products.
· All linen, towels, electricity, wood for the stove and heating are included in the price of the rental.
· We offer a free cleaning / linen change service for holiday lettings of over one week.
· Every room has central heating and double-glazing, making this a fantastic holiday destination in winter too!
· Child-friendly holiday accommodation – we can provide useful items that will help you to enjoy your stay e.g. cots, toys, baby bath, stair gate, high chair... Just make sure you ask when booking.
· Depending on the season, we enjoy providing free vegetables and free-range eggs from our own small-holding, just up the road!
· We also host Organic Gardening Residential Courses at certain times of the year. Please view our website http://www.vacvertes.com for further details.
· We can arrange tasty home-cooked meals to be delivered right to your doorstep!
Choose from 6 bedrooms…
· Every bedroom has 2 single beds (which can also be made up as 'doubles' to suit your requirements), making the room layout very convenient when planning a trip with a large group of friends.
· Beds can also be added or taken away from the rooms, should one guest require a single room - just enquire on booking.
· Five of the bedrooms have private en suites (one with bath) and heated towel rails.
· Please ask if you have any questions about the ground-floor ‘wheelchair accessible’ bedroom and bathroom.
· Just across the hall is 'bedroom number 6' - if guests do not need this during their stay and are visiting with children, we can transform it into a playroom with toys, books, child’s beds (should they be needed) and extra seating.
The Lounge
· Our cosy lounge is situated right next to the kitchen and guests love the ‘communal feel’ that this creates. There is satellite television, a DVD player, films for you to enjoy, books for your to curl up with and games for all the family. There are also 2 sofa-beds, should you need extra sleeping space during your holiday.
· There is also a wood-burning stove, which really adds to the cosy feel of this room.
· Wheelchair users can access the garden / terrace through the patio doors (with lovely views!) and access ramp.
The Kitchen
· The large kitchen is very well-equipped. You will find a dishwasher, microwave, fridge/freezer, big gas oven, kettle and toaster. There are also loads of crockery, cutlery, glasses, mugs, coffee cups, cooking pans and other useful items at your disposal.
· At the centre of the room is the huge kitchen table, with seating for up to 14 people. The numerous restaurants within the locality are a useful option but our kitchen really is the perfect place for groups who plan on cooking and eating in.
Further Details about exterior Facilities
· Although the house is in the heart of the village, you will have the best of both worlds, as once you step out of the back door, the peaceful views of open countryside really make you feel like you are in a more remote spot.
· The attractive terrace (with barbecue) is a wonderful location for a relaxing drink or meal on a warm summer's evening. There are reclining seats, a large dining table / benches and parasol if you need some more shade.
· The terrace is entirely accessible for wheelchairs and we have created a paved access ramp from the patio doors.
· The terrace leads out onto the large, private and family-friendly garden lawn, also a great spot for watching wild birds.
Limousin – Discover the ‘Real France’...
We are situated in the heart of the village of St Germain les Belles, just 30 minute south of Limoges, in the Haute-Vienne, Limousin.
If you really don't want to hire a car during your stay, you really can find everything you need right on your doorstep.. The village has several small, local shops (selling everything from tasty cheeses to locally-reared meat), a network of country walks, a rail service to Limoges and our village swimming lake!
During July and August, the lake can provide really great (and free!) entertainment for families with children. There is supervised swimming and a sandy beach and it is often busy with local children or families from the adjoining campsite.
Limousin has been called the 'French Lake District' and will offer you some of the most unspoilt, natural landscapes in France.
We are surrounded by swimming lakes, beaches and outdoor swimming pools. The beautiful Lake Vassiviere, Europe's largest man-made lake, is only 45 minutes away and is also the site of the national contemporary art gallery. Please ask us for details of some of the best lakes or outdoor pools to visit, especially for those with young children.
For the outdoor enthusiast and those of you who enjoy countryside rambling, there are numerous activities in the surrounding region. We can tell you all about our favourite walks, beauty spots and places to watch birds. If you enjoy cycling holidays, bicycle hire is available within the village and there are many local routes through quiet country villages.
The abundance of lakes and rivers within Limousin also means that including the fantastic canoeing and sailing locations, it is also a great location for a fishing holiday in France.
We are also only 30 mins away from the attractive city of Limoges - famous for its porcelain and old quarter. Discover the abundance of interesting boutiques, medieval churches, restaurants and antique markets. The other historic towns and villages in our area are also well worth a visit, including Segur le Château, one of the most beautiful villages in France; Uzerche on the stunning Vézère River; Pompadour (La Cité du Cheval) and its frequent equestrian events and château…
